I've been beating the drum for affordable polystone warplanes for awhile and finally K&C has come through! I can't wait to start displaying these beauties with their pilots, groundcrews and service vehicles. Way to go K&C!!!
I'm sure a Spitfire and Me-109 and many others can't be far off. Up until now I've had to settle for Corgi Warbirds. I'll be very interested to see how these new K&C planes stack up with Corgi. The price differential is very high so therefore my expectations are also very high.

Will the Hurricane be a sellout before the dealers get them from K&C.
Guys
having spoken with andy the Hurricanes SOLD out to DEALERS in 24hrs!!
This would mean that that the dealer network would have been all over this as soon as it was announced.
As george said he is a sell out of his allocation and lets just say that ours in the UK are going very fast! one of the fastest selling preorders for a while. Up there with the Winter Tiger.
Great price point and at last a model for the mass.

I pre-ordered one from Treefrog Wednesday I believe. But with this "sellout" news I have no idea whether I'll actually get one. Perhaps someone from K&C or Treefrog could shed some light on this?
I'm excited K&C is making affordable aircraft, but it would be a huge disappointment to me if I wasn't able to get one this early. Just about the entire line hinges around the Hurricane...wouldn't make sense to me to buy any of the other RAF figures, as nice as they are, without one.

Treefrog should send you an order confirmation number. Sold out to dealers means King & Country is out of alloted dealer inventory, it should still be easy to obtain one from a dealer.......I should think.
Thanks...I did get a confirmation #, but that's it (Treefrog doesn't charge until the item actually ships). Usually, when you add something to a wish list or your cart, you get a # that lets you know how many sets are in stock, but that doesn't apply to pre-orders.
I put a notation in my order to ask if that really meant I was NOT getting it (so I could search elsewhere), but I haven't gotten an answer. So I'm hoping that means I got one in time.
