Realizing that this has been a heck of a frustrating experience for all who supported MTH and their F3 releases, these appear rather lackluster compared to all the interest and excitement generated about the Atlas and 3rd Rail models with their striking and beautiful stainless finish.
I had Flyer as a boy and always admired the other guys' F3s. To finally be able to purchase a quality F3 in S sale is a milestone of sorts but what a long drawn-out project....
