what about rubbing the spots with really fine grain wet and dry sand paper? That may fade them a bit, blur them into the surrounding paint, cause the light grey underneath to bleed through a bit and make them look more like weathering and less like dots painted all over the plane. That's what i was...

It isn't fair to compare the Joes and Bbi. Joes never claimed to be pure modern military figures.

Bbi is your best bet, even though Joes beat them in the articulation department. ;)

There are only a couple of things i'd want enough to build and paint myself, and the price better be damn fine.

And now that i think about it, i much prefer tampo printing to decals, so maybe i don't want to DIY it after all.

Or try in vain to trade them for water, gasoline and ammunition.

I forget the exact scale (1:20something), but it's designed to work with 1:18 figures.

The III, IV and Seafox were all in service before DS, and could have influenced the Moray, and subsequently the Chap Mei.

If i hazard a guess, i'd say it's partially inspired by the MK-III/IV and Seafox boats.

Could be anything, though.

The AH-1W is the best 1:18 helicopter, period. Lots of moving parts, plus the opening engines, gun bay, avionics bay and cockpit. The removable canopy to get figures in and out of the cockpit easily is also a nice feature.

I can live with one big jet per year - that way I can save up for it :wink: The F-14 will certainly take up space and I'm not sure whether I should get the Flanker if it becomes a reality... Then again, my F-14 is going to need to get shot down by something besides my BBI Zero :P Fixed that for you...

They would come out at the same general time frame as the Tomcat this year, only next year.

Just worry about the F-14 The Flanker is a ways off.
