you could add corsair and hunter to the planes

How did I forget to include tanks??

I considered ther BSG subjects, but decided against them as the kits were unavailable for a long time. Sure, you see them all the time now, but not so often in the past. I was thinking of only things which have been at EVERY model expo you EVER attended., or atleast for the last twenty years or so.
