                        I hear ya!  I’ve purchased, received and built the Tamiya F-14 in the time since I pre-ordered the AMK Kit.  To say AMK drug their feet would be an understatement.

                        That kit had an incredibly long gestation period.  Hopefully the wait will have been worth it!

                        I had a package show up yesterday, a whole 4 months after I ordered it.  Of course that is nowhere near how long you have waited for your Tomcat.

                        I have been watching that kit develop since Tamiya beat them to the punch how many years ago, wondering if they would ever roll it out.

                        Got a pleasant surprise this morning in the mail.  I completely forgot about the preorder I put in seemingly a lifetime ago.  About gave up hope ever receiving this kit.  Had to get my hands on it to believe it actually exists
