These look like the ones that TBD (Troy Built Models) will be importing.

Don't know what the cost will be from HiFly but here is the TBM version.

They used to have it in the green/grey scheme as well and, I'm guessing, will again as indicated by Ed above.

This doesn't look like TBM, looks more like what Easytigermodels is importing. Especially the P-38.
www.easytigermodels.com

Yep... it's a match. Even has the same tail number in the photos from both websites.

These look like the planes that giantscaleplanes.com use to distribute.
I wish they had a P-47 razorback!

When I go to the original link at the top of this thread, it tells me to go here:

http://www.eol-demo.com/hifly/product-2b.asp?td1=4

then click on the "product" menu bar and then "scale" with the pic of the zero.

If I go to the Mustang page, it looks like exactly the same pic of the mustang TBM had a few months ago:

http://www.troybuiltmodels.com/ns/warb/

(scroll to bottom to see the mustang)

But what's really wierd if you go the hifly site and look at the mustang accessories, you can see the LG is NOT appropriate for a giant scale plane.

The original page said under construction, so maybe they're just substituting some photos until the real ones arrive.

The Zero looks like the same fuse that the TBM one has, except with a 2 piece wing. Also the same as the easytiger offering (pic attached)

I think these birds are all painted, but not sure. The mustang wing looks like shiny covering.

I do love this size though! I want one for a DA 85.
