Small Scale Military Headquarters

I'd appreciate any opinions or facts on scale, detail etc. on the M1. I know a lot of you guys are experts and I'd like to thank you in advance for any info.

Exactamundo. I haven't sprung for a Patton yet, but had to have a Bulldog, having put one together from an old Renwal kit from the 60's or 70's. I'm not sure about the spelling on Renwal but they had some excellent kits, lots of moving parts etc.

I checked the # in stock right before I bought thr Bulldog and it was only 6.

Supid me, I thought I was through with Monkey Madness, then they go and put the Walker Bulldog back up and I needed the Afrika Corp guys for an 88 crew.

Looking forward to seeing the prototypes. I hope they really do an excellent job on the pilots, more so than on the ww II pilots.

I just got my 88 10 minutes ago(thanks Fed-ex man), Really nice. Now I wish I would have bought another. If 21st goes out of business(I sure the hell hope not), their last 1:18 scale item was certainly a masterpiece.

Tell me about it, I wish I only felt as bad as you

I just ordered one. $44 shipped. I t was only 9.00 shipping Fed-ex, which seems reasonable to me for a large item that you're getting at an excellent price. I feel sorry for you over seas collectors. Don't know where I'll find the space to set it up but I had to have it even though I just lost my job.

He looks good but HUGE. Looks like he could lift the turret off by himself and makes that Tiger look like a 38T

Hey Buckyroo. stop being tight with your money and buy yourself some more P 51's and Spits . Seriously nice collection, you got to love volume.

Wow! SCORE, looks even more awesome condidering I got zilch for war goodies

Thanks Sky Ray for the pics. I think I'll have to get one. Break out the pastel chalks and weather her up all nice and She'll look real good.

Wow! that u-boat looks nice. Can be seperated at the bulkheads, crewed, even looks like a blanket on one of the bunks. I really like the detail. I don't know how I can pass up getting one. Thanks for the link

Fritzkrieg, you have a real nice assortment of Deutchesoldaten there. Real nice pics. Do you have any enemies for your Knights of the Reich?

Yeah. Where's the pics? Anyways, thanks for the review.

Thanks for the replies Ostketten and Col. Pickle. I decided to buy some of the Conte Romans and the K&C Romane Gate section and some K&C Barbarians(I lthink they look better than Contes' Barbarians). Hopefully I'm not being fooled by the Pics, that I"ve seen on the etailers sites.

I was hoping some of you had some opinions on Conte painted figures. They're having a 2 for 1 sale right now. I'm interested in their Romans as they look much more correct than the King and Country offerings(the legionaries have the correct handles on shields instead of the incorrect straps on the b...

Rogo thanks for the idea of gluing with the line pulling the wings together. I think I'll try it.

I know that want to toss against the wall feeling. I amost lost it with the BBI Zero. I couldnpt get tje wings to fit quite right, too much gap between the wing and fuselage on one side. I finally accepted it when I realized it still looks good even if it isn't perfect. I screwed with tat damn cockp...

Thanks Jason, that was the coolest post I've seen yet on this great site.

Thanks for the pic of the new plane and all the others of your impressive collection. WOW is the only non profanity laced thing I can think of to describe your collection and the excellent way its displayed.

I went with the T-34 but would like to see almost as much a M-18.

Thanks for the pics! You're not the only one starting to really like these new 1;32 planes. I love the three I've purchased and think that they're incredible for the price. I hope to see more coming with this new level of detail.

Thanks for the heads up! I don't know where to put it, but couldn't pass up the f-104.

YAY HEY! A must buy for me. Its great to see a 1:6 scale piece downscaled to 1:18. Now I have renewed hope for a 1:18 m18 Hellcat.
