I had been looking for one of these on and off for a couple of years, when I saw one in the LHS that I had adopted as a second home while living on Okinawa.  It's a 1/48 Revell/Hasegawa (both logos are on the box) and one of these days I'll get her built and marked as a USMC Intruder.  Then I'll have to get an A-4 and F-4 to go alongside her.  I went home, grabbed the yen jar and drove right back there and bought it!

I paid 3200 yen for mine.  I think that works out to about $30US depending on what the exchange rate was that week.

As for the F-8 just go with the Hasegawa, if you look you can get one for about $30, its a good kit I've got two of em. Um...  That was me.  Via the wife.  She knew I wanted one, and it was a present.  I couldn't bear to tell her how much she overspent.   Worst part?  It was paid for with Canadian dollars.   I really hope she never sees this post, and realizes that we spent twice what the kit is worth.  I do love her so much for the gesture, though.

DUU.....Ant she an luckey you, no way my wife pay that much for me.
