Re: New 1/18 Fw-190D

With my post, I was attempting to establish guidelines for when events like this happen in the future.

toyktdlgh, I respect that you and TTT are not attacking Jnewboy, nor is Jnewboy attacking either of you, but I wish that this will be resolved quickly as to avoid grudges amongst this community.

Suggestions for a grave yard 251/1

Due to rough shipping, a 21c 1:18 251/1 (Number 13) arrived with a broken axel and a cracked windshield area. I stripped the MG mount off for use with my 251/7 and Stuka zu Fuss. Any one have any suggestions for what I can do with the rest? P.S. let me know if I should have posted this in the 1:18 f...

Re: What do you do with your 1:18?

Ok, next time I make a poll I will include an 'all of the above' choice. I have to admit, I thought that most people that bought 1:18 hid it in their closet to over-price on eBay in the years to come. It is great news to hear that you guys actually are enjoying these 'precision models for adult coll...

I personally make dioramas, and I have a feeling most people who have 1:18 items are just waiting to sell them instead of enjoying each piece.

This is not my area of expertise, but it involves a lot of planning, prototypes, time, and money.

Question about 1/6 figures

Hey, I know that this is a 1:18th scale forum, but SSMQ has the most friendly community so I hope you guys won't mind this deviation.

Are the 1/6 figures hands molded in on shape, or can the fingers be moved to suit any weapon?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Re: 1/18 Aircraft wish list? Just for fun.

I am not into planes as I am into choppers, and I find they can 'go together' with figures in a diorama rather than jets. My wish list: -MI-24D Hind -UH-1 Iroquois with optional M60s or M134s for the side gunners and rocket pods -MI-8 Hip And for something different, how about a 'battle damaged' var...

Come back of 1:18?

I just checked out Foxhole toys, and there are quite a few 1:18 items listed as 'pre-order'. Does this mean that these are new products being released, or...?
