Merit's "New" Huey.
- Thread starter K-Tiger
- Start date
$99 is still more than I'd like to pay, but it doesn't feel like a completely unwanted rape in this day and age. Kinda like, "Hey, she's raping me! ... she's... raping.. me. Alright."
Yeah, it's certainly not the a$$ rape Bbi was trying...$170 up from $30?!...pfft, f*@# off
Though it would be nice if this new one came with some extras like weapon mounts for door gunners...

Yeah, though maybe the extra units in the wild will make some after market customizers come up with some cool things.
Though according to badcat this is limited to 600 units in the USA.

I wouldn't expect any third party accoutrements from this release. Look at it this way, you're getting a Huey for a c-note and change. Better than eBay prices.
Sure, it's not really accurate, but it IS a UH-1C gunhsip, and thus fucking COOL.
At least if you don't own one.

If I would of seen this a few months ago when I was on a huge Nam kick, I would of probably bought this. Now, not so much
I jumped on one, mostly because I only have the CIA huey presently. Plus, I like dealing with FM. I bought my F-16C from them, and they seem like really cool folks. I like free shipping, and I like not ordering from Badcat...
I'll probably do a first impression but likely won't have time to open it up until after I move.
This is awesome!
Didn't even know it was out already!
Who did you guys order from in terms of best price and free shipping?

Yea, I just looked and people are still trying to make a mortgage payment off those.
The damn system won't let me punish myself!
I half hoped that the Huey would come with a personal letter from Onwu, all the way from China

That would be beyond awesome.
Hello friend, I hope your website server has burned to the ground and all the figures at your store are repacks. FYI, I told my associates at BC to run over your helicopter with a forklift.
Sincerely,
Onwu
PS - Guess which part of your chopper has been inside my colon.

I'm on the fence....I love Huey's even though I passed on an endorsement in favor of the 407...there was more work for intermediates at the time.
I've already got 2 Hoghead IIs (Which I should really do the missing artwork for), and a slick that's in perpetual project mode.
This one isn't offering me anything I don't already have. If you don't have a UH-1C and want one then I'd strongly recommend considering this one.

I probably would have skipped this one except that I currently only have the CIA version. I thought an OD version would come in handy while the CIA version is occupied by conspiring spooks, back-stabbing politicians, and others not on the front line.
