Thanks for the tips, bro...
Anyway, i bought a model of the soon-to-be discontinued F-117 Nighthawk stealth aircraft from Toy City 1U earlier today... This plane is what i have been looking for ever since my previous model (a kit) fell to the ground many years back!

F117 will be decommissioned in stages but there will still some unit being kept in active squadron they don't believe F-22 will be able to take over entirely from the F117's duty.
Yeah, the MU airbus is not available to buy onboard as it out of stock . I just went to Toy City in Midvalley and saw they sell Witty Wings aircraft for RM299 . That is pretty expensive considering I bought mine for RM 130 .

Its kind of bittersweet to see those pioneers of stealth aviation finally bidding goodbye but its also very draining on taxpayers' money to maintain these hi-tech aircraft... Btw, my plane is the one which is green and white in color, and its also my first model aircraft in a long time!  Speaking of the AirAsia MU plane, is it really out of stock? Dunno whether the supply will be replenished when i fly to Phuket around end July leh? Anyway, that particular model plane must be really popular with AirAsia passengers!

Yalor, that B-2 Spirit is really very rare... Anyway, i just won a bid for one via eBay... Its a die-cast model and should be around the same size with the F-117...
Btw, i just bought a Tornado IDS GR.4 (the one with the wingsweep) and a F-18 Hornet from ToyCity... The wingsweep of the Tornado is really cool, IMO!
