What do you guys think about the hero ?

I've been ranting about this already for a while... Hero is a Rambo -element, making it possible to make uber -powerful strike force almost anywhere - using a few (or one!) paratroopers or an universal carrier carrying heavy AT gun or...

Also, Schpittfire 109 is a big letdown, it seems to be using the same mold than Messerschmitt [:(]

The 2 planes do like identical, except for the paint scheme.

I think the hero is interesting. I curious as to what the other countries have for heros.

Yeah, if you replace the roundels with German markings, the fact that it's simply an ME-109 in RAF camouflage colors is perfectly obvious. I'm still hopeful it's an aberration, a painter's mistake, that somehow made it to the photographer's desk and that we'll see the real Spitfire in a day or two.

IIRC, 4 countries get a type of Hero.

FW is one of the planes. The other kind reminds me of a P-51[:0].

They just don't know what's good in life...Conan, tell them what is good in life.
To rip the boosters. To count the minis spilled out before you, and to hear the indifference of the women...

The Focke Wulf 190 is pretty nice but the spitfire looks like his traditionally most hated enemy the ME-109.....

RAF veterans who fought in the spitfire most be twitching in their graves.......[:0]

For those who don't frequent the WotC/AH AAM forums, one of the mods has confirmed that the Schpitfire is, in fact, a repainted ME-109 figure. He'll be checking into how it happened and reporting to the multitudes. Discontent is widespread.

It's pretty wondrous act to make majority of the community angry with one preview.

Btw, preview 5 is up. Focke's stats cause mild discontent with better AI and still the same cost than ME109. If anyone want's to trade his now obsolete 109 for a Chi-Ro, Please mail me [:D]
