Did anyone here from Texas order from Badcat? I called and they said mine shipped this morning but they have not given me a tracking # so I am trying to guess when it will arrive. I am assuming between Friday and Tuesday so if anyone else knows when theirs is coming that would help me out. Thanks in...

The troop compartment does open, and it is larger than it looks. overall I see this vehicle as a cheap command chopper. I just wish it had some more details to it. It needs a tail number or unit patch, something, it looks very plain.

Well, I found the helicopter at big lots and bought it. It does not come with any rockets and there is no place for them to be mounted. This is definately good custom fodder I wish I had the talent to turn it into a coast guard dauphin. As far as the other items go, there were no IFV's but there was...

I really might get 2. Only if there is a VF-84 and the other would have to be a Bombcat from Op Enduring Freedom, I don't care what squadron but I love the ground attack version. I know I would buy these because I already collect Macross (VF-84 :D ) Fighters. I have 16 of them and they run between $...

I am amazed at the Tomcat but maybe the angle of the pic but does the nose look a little thin? either way I am happy with the new distributor. Maybe Merit will do well enough to release the BBI F-18 and F-16 repaints
