Re: A Question for Picklehaube

Yes! The P-39 Airacobra gives us our first Russian WWII fighter finally! They did very well in this plane. My all time Russian favorite though is the Yak-9. So badly wish someone was interested in making that one. It was the best Russian fighter they produced.

That Prince of Persia set is pretty cool! Buildings were always a problem with1:18, , so stuff like that can be helpful.

Re: 1/18 Me163B-1

Hey, the short of it before I forgot is this. If it is in regards to the ME163, the answer is still YES I want one! Hahaha! Just have to figure out how to get the dang msgs to work.

Re: 1/18 Me163B-1

Nope! The stupid forum message system constantly says they are on hold! Absolutely ridiculous. Did you see mine going your way? I am not sure who to contact to get it fixed either unfortunately. I think Pickle messaged me 6mon to a year ago probably and I couldn't read his either.

Grunt1, you still making this kit? I tried contacting you, and it seems like you responded back, but it says I am not authorized to read your message while it is on "hold"? Never seen that yet on here.

I would like to get one of these M3s.

Re: Tempest Project 1/18

Excellent as a "future" idea, BUT ONLY AFTER YOU BUILD a P-39 Airacobra, Yak-9, and or Ilyushin Il-2!!!

Those are such hugely produced WWII planes, and would offer some great German opposition planes!!!

ME-163 would be cool to have in production again...

After that, produce the obscure Tempest?

P-39 Aircobra

I could have sworn a good 3-5 years back now there was someone in the 1:18 scale forum making a P-39 Aircobra? I might have mixed up another plane someone made. If anyone knows if this was made, and who made it, please chime in.

Thanks!

Probably stupid, but I have no idea what a place "card" is? Are you referring to custom stands for the F14s or something else?

What is the difference between the A and the B versions? I guess the generic as well.

This is an interesting post, as I have long sought after a plane from Russia. There are two I very much want to see made, but no one seems to be interested in making them ever.
