You had me at P-61. Seriously, I think the reason these great birds aren't reproduced is because who would teach folks how to fly them? The wing loading and power/weight ratio on them is sooo different from what the average civillian pilot is used to. Don't get me wrong I'd love too see more of them in the air but but between this and the cost for what is basically a one-off is so high as be really prohibitive.
