HISTORY ASPECTS:
The General Dynamics F-111C A8-131 served with the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) as one of the most iconic and long-serving strike aircraft in the nation's history. Delivered to Australia in 1973, the F-111C combined the longer wingspan of the F-111A with the strengthened undercarriage of the FB-111A, making it uniquely suited for the vast distances of the Australian continent. A8-131 became a symbol of the RAAF's long-range strike capability, with its variable-sweep wings, terrain-following radar, and supersonic speed allowing it to penetrate deep into hostile territory with precision.
Throughout its service life, A8-131 participated in countless training operations, multinational exercises, and strategic deterrence patrols. While Australia did not deploy the F-111C in direct combat, its presence significantly contributed to regional stability during tense periods in the Asia-Pacific. During the East Timor crisis in 1999, the RAAF maintained high readiness levels, and the F-111 fleet stood as a potent reminder of Australia's ability to project power, even without firing a shot. Later in its life, A8-131 was upgraded to carry the AGM-142 Popeye precision-guided missile, further enhancing its deep-strike effectiveness.
After three decades of service, A8-131 was retired in 2003, marking the end of an era in Australian military aviation. The aircraft was celebrated for its unmatched speed, range, and payload, earning the affectionate nickname “Pig” for its ability to "sniff out" targets at low altitude. A8-131 was preserved and displayed as part of the RAAF’s legacy, showcasing the significance of the F-111C in Australian air power doctrine.
This 1:72 scale model commemorates 30 years of service with striking accuracy and attention to detail. Equipped with four AGM-142 missiles, authentic 1973–2003 commemorative markings, and sweeping wings, this replica is a standout piece for aviation history enthusiasts and collectors of Cold War and modern strike aircraft.

Comfortable chair
Color: Cream, Size: PU Leather(No Wheels)
Ordered this chair for my daughter for Christmas. It's a great chair. It's very comfortable. She wishes it had wheels. I didn't see a way to add wheels to this base, either. Still a good chair. You have to make sure where you put it you can spin to get out of it. Pushing it back and forth on carpet doesn't work well.

Great Office Chair
I purchased this chair to replace the old one in my son's room. I really like the look and style of this chair. It was easy for me to assemble and the riser functions really good and the stability of the base is very good. I like the wide design as it has more back support and seat support.

Comfortable, Stylish, and Great for Casual Seating
The OLIXIS Criss Cross Legged Chair is a really nice option if you prefer sitting cross-legged or want a wider, more relaxed seating style compared to a traditional office chair. The armless design and wide seat make it easy to shift positions throughout the day without feeling restricted. Comfort-wise, the padding is decent and supportive for short to moderate sitting sessions. The adjustable height and swivel function work smoothly, and it’s easy to find a comfortable position whether you’re working at a desk, doing makeup, or just using it casually in a bedroom or home office setup. The minimalist look is also a plus—it blends well with modern decor and doesn’t take up as much visual space as bulky office chairs. Assembly was fairly straightforward and didn’t take long. One thing to note is that since it has no wheels, it’s not ideal if you need to move around your workspace frequently. Also, while it’s comfortable, it may not be the best choice for long, full workdays compared to a high-back ergonomic chair with more lumbar support. Overall, this is a stylish and functional chair that works great for light office use, studying, or casual seating—especially if you like the criss-cross sitting position.

Wow Great Deal!
Color: Black
I have been using this chair for a month now and I am honestly impressed for the price I paid. I work from home so am using this chair 24/7. I had no issues with assembling it myself as a 35 year old female. Instructions were simple to follow and took me maybe 30 minutes to put together. Its sturdy and comfortable. I appreciate the padded arms and the seat bottom is also a nice thick cushion. Added bonus for the head rest and that it is adjustable. Definitely recommend.
