Re: New Aircraft Projects For 2023

You know I’m in for the A-10. Would like to know more about this project and what’s needed to go ‘in’.

Re: Marauder Task Force WWII Kickstarter

I think three going on four successful Kickstarters should speak for itself. All of their product has legs. Figures from their first Kickstarter years back are still being produced and sold due to demand while they continue to produce new product. Each Kickstarter they do compliments the products fr...

Re: Marauder Task Force WWII Kickstarter

No one should worry about MGR not coming through. They have always come through AND find someway to make up for any delays. They are a class act. I’ve backed all their Kickstarters including the WWII Kickstarter without hesitating. I’ve made several purchases from their online store and never been l...

Re: 1/18 A4E Skyhawk 2019

Seeing those three jets at that level of development is exciting news. Have to ask if he’s considering an A-10 for a future release in 1/18 scale?

Re: Maybe a Chance for the A-10 After All !!

I see huge support for the A10, but even if it wins tomorrow, how many years before you guys will even see the prototype? They seem to have been dangling that Harrier prototype out there for years now and still have no packaged product for you guys to buy. The difference this time around is that if...

Re: 1/18th Scale A-10 Advanced Planning Stage Input Needed !

I wish I had more update to update you with. Unfortunately the person that was lined up to do the 3D Model and printing for us is still tied up with their normal job. Unfortunate side to this being a side project for people. Pickel can attest to that. Please keep the faith as we will definitely keep...

Re: 2014 JSI/MERIT Built n Painted New Releases

The 1/18 Harrier in kit form is already listed at The Flying Mule for $170. Hopefully the pre-assembled/pre-painted version won't be too much higher.

Right now the project is in a holding pattern. As Pickel indicated in his last post, the 3 D resource has been slammed with their real job. As soon as forward movement begins again, we'll let you know.

Re: Product Review: Merit/JSI F-86F "Jabarra"

I think the prices are getting to where they should be for the current market. Comparatively speaking, the 1/72 scale diecast prices have also been on the rise. I remember paying $55 for the first Hobby Master A-10 that was released. Just yesterday I dropped near $80 on a pre-order for the next rele...
