Small Scale Military Headquarters

The HellCat has landed in South Florida.

The West Palm Beach Toys "R" Us has one left as of last night. They were hidden in the overhead storage compartment.

Plenty of Daisy June corsairs and a few Donald Duck mustangs.

G-day Jason:

Glad to here you & Admiral are on heading & on course.

I have 2 SBDs on preorder with MTS and a white 7 & CL-13 Hartman on preorder with BCA.

I eagerly look forward to Admirals 1:18 releases.

I guess the Bunker Hill Avenger will be available at Bad Cat first then other retailers next. If I remember correctly, this was supposed to be a BCA exclusive. I guess the deal with 21st fell apart. From the BCA website: "Our direct shipment should arrive about a month before general distribution to...

I did another Target recon tonight. I found one new item... Humvee -1st Marine Division bbi item # 021281. Not a repaint... same paint as before. Price $19.99 I have a small correction... The paratrooper figs that I reported on are actually priced @ $5.99. All other figs are $4.99. My mistake. I did...

For PlaneNuts: The bbi was located right next to the Forces of Valor. The isle did have some other figs that were not bbi. After work today I plan on another visit. I will take a photo and post it here tonight. For USCGSARdog: I scored the S1 OD green version. I did not see any of the S2 PaveHawk JL

For scope uk:

The Blackhawk, Apache, M1A1 & L.A.V. boxes have new artwork similar to the little bird night stalker box.

For aferguson:

I saw no new paint schemes. All items had the same paint jobs as before.

NEWS FLASH............................. A brand spanking new Super Target opened its doors for the first time this afternoon. And yes, bbi was on the shelf. Here is what I found. There were no repaints of any kind. Sorry guys, same paints as before. On the back of the boxes there were no pictures o...

Not listed but I really like the Red Tail Tuskegee.

JL

Absolutely take the tour of the USS Midway. I went there during the Con in 2005 and it was fantastic.

It is very close to the convention center.

JL

There is a brand spanking new Super Target opening in my neighborhood on July 24th 2007.

I will be there on opening day to check for bbi items.

Thanks for the replys guys. I almost started bidding on that item thinking it was all black in color. I already have the s1 version that is OD green.

Thanks again.

JL

I have always thought the series one black hawk (bbi item # 21184) was really dark green or olive in color but not black. The e-bay seller is stating it is black in color. Or is this really the s1 olive colored one? Not to be confused with the pave hawk s2 paint scheme (bbi item # 21279) which is a ...

Excellent news Zach! I guess the Merrill’s Marauders was a successful trial run. There is a TRU 3 minutes from my home and many more in my AO. Now I know that if a 21st item is shipped to TRU it WILL show in my neighborhood. No more east coast vs. west coast crap with Wal-Mart. Hurray! Excellent news!

Yes, bring on the Wildcat. I would like to see it made in 1:18.

Very nicely done Mike. Thanks for putting out a new bird for us plane nuts.

Will the pilot figure be a new mold?

And yes, please fix the front windscreen.


Thank you bbi & mike!

I sure hope the Admiral team is not abandoning the 1:18 line.

Jason, could you chime in and let us fans know if the Admiral team is on heading and on course?

No details are necessary. Just let us know your still at the wheel and that 1:18 is not dead.

Picked up the Don Emerson (Donald Duck) P-51 mustang Friday night at the Boca Raton, FL Toys "R" Us.

$44.99 + tax

They now have two left.

Affirmative.

That ship will be the series three F-86 from 21st.

Welcome aboard elitesaber.

Good to have another Florida collector on the forums.

JL

Or how about a Teddy Kennedy plane:

Always turns to the left and crashes into the water.

Excellent news! This means that bbi now has a greater incentive to manufacture more foreign aircraft. I believe Target does not have a ban on axis equipment like T.R.U. The zero has been out for a while now but has not shown at T.R.U. If it shows up at Target this could mean a more diverse selection...

Just added a second SBD to my pre-order.

Could it possibly be......
