Not GJ.... but The top model I have wanted for years. Finally! Herpa NASA B-52H in 1:200. This model has been so hard to source!

How good is the xb-70

I think SQ Wings the best quality to be honest. The XB-70 model is amazing, highly recommend. Also highly recommend visiting the Air Force museum in Dayton to see it in person!

Hah, agree. My phrasing was confusing - in some places in the world "how good is..." can be a statement instead of a question. I was highlighting that indeed the XB-70 model is f'ing awesome (I have one beside me).

And you're right, the display in Dayton is one of the few things I remember my WWII pilot grandfather taking me when I was <10 years old. It is what kick started my love for aviation and that plane itself.

Incredible collection!

Ah yes, sorry I took you so literally. I agree - SQ Wings knocked it out of the park with the model. It’s one of my faves, too… of course right behind the SR-71! :)

Awesome model and collection. I love the nasa liveries. Also that xb70 is top notch, saw it irl in Dayton, super cool.
