Easily Broken/Lost Pieces:

On the Firebat, the missiles and the two landing gear pieces are small and easily lost.

Also, the tabs for the belly guns are very fragile and can break easily - take caution with them.

The original Firebat released in 1986 was maroon in color, while the 1988 to 1993 mail-in version was a bright Red.
