Turns out the shipping will take 24 months, half the parts are MegaBloks and don't even fit, the cost ended up being triple what was advertised, and the Lego F-16 got much better reviews on Amazon.

He's referring to the failure of the real F-35 project.

The Lego F-22 is the one all the kids loved, but you can't even order those anymore.

And, it'll still be more stealthy than the real thing.
