F-104 !!!!

I picked up the F-104 at comic con...as well as the Gunter Rall ME-109. The F-104 is really, really nice. I had it sitting on the landing gear for two days now...and they hold up really well.

Where are the F-16's at retail????

Does anybody know if a retail location is planning on carrying the BBi F-16's? I refuse to pay $80 plus shipping. Or does anybody know of an online retailer with good prices or free shipping?

quality control....

My P-47 came with a broken pitot tube on the wing. I emailed 21st century last week...but haven't heard back. Maybe they're delayed because of the holiday....

Anyone need an apc???

The WalMart by my house has these on clearance for $25 each. If anyone needs one at this price let me know....and I'll go see if they still have any left. They are the tan ones...and most of the boxes were a bit dinged up.

BBi mustang...

The price was $39.99...but I used a $5 off coupon, so I got it for $35. The box is small and narrow compared to the 21st century planes....
