Small Scale Military Headquarters

I smell a Fairchild A-10 Thunderbolt II.

This could be a new cost savings measure. Does anyone have a Geiger counter? China might be exporting all their spent uranium in the form of Me-262 nose weights.

Got one in my Wal-Mart Ridge Runner

Hello Jarod: Welcome to board. Best place on the www for accurate 1:18 aircraft, armor & figures. Love the P-39 too. My Grandpa worked for Bell Aircraft in Buffalo, NY during WWII and talked about the Airacobra quite a bit. Maybe one day we will see an example in 1:18 I am up the road in Palm Beach ...

Help me to understand. I am not an armor guy I just don't know.....

Would the FOV 1:18 stryker be considered modern or WWII or somewhere in between?

Wow! :shock: This reminds me of the "How its made" show that is seen on the Discovery/Science channel. There is a triangular formula that we use at my work. It's called Good/Cheap/Fast. You can only have two out of three. Example: If you want it Fast & Cheap then it ain't no Good . :( If you want it...

Welcome Buck:

You indeed have a rare bird.

I purchased both Aussie mustangs from the same vendor. It was not cheap. $300.00 US. for two birds shipped 1/2 way around the world.

The limited number made it worth the price.

Welcome to the board.

I know about Wal-Mart & Toys R Us. It's hit or miss at these places.

Has anyone found these at other brick & mortar stores?

Are there any online stores that carry these tiny planes? I am having difficulty finding the new releases.

I love this forum.

JL

I am impressed. You have some interesting examples.

Thanks for sharing.

I am not even an armor guy but I scored 9 FOV abrams for 7.48 each.

5 woodland camo
4 desert

I just got my shipping confirmation & tracking number for the 2 seat Me 262 night fighter.

Looks like we are getting really close.

100% out of the box and on display!

Leaving a 1:18 aircraft in the box is like putting a berka on a Victoria's Secret model.

It's just not meant to be!

The Gee-Bee R-1 had the Pratt & Whitney R1340 "Wasp" engine. Nine cylinders rated around 800hp. The R-2 and the Z model had the Pratt & Whitney R985 "Wasp Jr." engine. Nine cylinders rated around 500hp. The HellCat had the P&W R2800. 18 cylinders rated around 2000 to 2200 hp. The number after the "R...

Yes, area 21 is good. I am thankful for an official news source. I visit that site about once a week looking for new information. You do good work ZS. I visit SSHQ several times daily. I appreciate that you post here as well. It's like having an insider who can shake the tree for us and see what fal...

Holy sh*t.

I am missing a bunch of these.

Great list. That's why I like these boards.

Now to find them for sale....
Somewhere...

Thank you for all your hard work Jason!

Glad to hear the 1:18 projects are still moving forward save for the F-4.

Any updates on the 1:32 scale projects? I remember a Val & Corsair were prototyped at one time.

The news is much appreciated.

1:32 scale: 72 (no duplicates)

Picked up the P-47 "Evie" @ TRU.

I am still looking for the Stuka/Foglore dogfight pack. Did these ever make it to the east coast?

I have not seen it anywhere except on the 21st website.

If there is a Target retail store in your state you get nailed for the sales tax.

I know.... it sucks.

Ordered one up.

Hope its not the s1 Wolf Pack



Thank you digger for the excellent find

Oops!

Folkwulfe is right. Grumman made the F-14 TomCat.

McDonnell Douglas made the F-15 Eagle.

What is my dream?

Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress
McDonnell Douglas F-14 TomCat
Fairchild A-10 Warthog


I dream big.

I received a reply from Pegasus..... Hi John, Thanks for the interest in the V-1! We should have these available to ship in about a week and a half. We hopefully will have some pics of it posted up in our ebay store at that time. I will drop you a line when it's available to ship, and we can go from...

Just confirmed with Tom @ Pegasus Hobbies... Next week a 1:18 V-1 buzz bomb will be available in painted and unpainted versions. In Feb 2008 they should have the 1:18 Bell X-1 They are also doing a 1:18 Gee Bee model Z Racer. He also said a V-2 rocket would be available next week. But in 1:48 scale....

F-16 in USAF Thunder birds paint. I am down for a set of 6. I wonder if it will be a Bad Cat exclusive like the Blue Angels?


On the V-1 and Bell X-1.... Never heard of that company before. Hope it gets made. I would get the painted versions for sure.
