Time for some serious civil discussion.
To be released soon. Is this the first time for an E-4B in 1/200?

No, I built this kit in the late 80s (showing my age there). Still have the trashed GE engines in the spares box.

Original kit issued in 1986.

Thanks Ray. So nearly 30 years since if was last released? I see it has markings for the example that arrived in Melbourne about 2 years ago. Looks good.

I take great pleasure in reminding military aviation-lovin people that the single most powerful warplane ever built is indeed none other than the humble Boeing 747-200 "jumbo", (in E-4 form). While pissy little fighters and bombers can take out targets, this particular variant of the 747 can take out countries, just by the proverbial "pressing of a button" :D
