Small Scale Military Headquarters

This is from the series Caprica?

I see what you mean RAD, looks like a Sabredog nose, F-4 or F-5 intakes, F-18 tail and inverted wings. Can't id the canopy though

I only have one T33 from them and its still in the box so can only repeat the opinions of others but I say go it Rowsdower unless you are waiting for a particular preferred scheme.

How wrong I was to think that already having 9 Corsairs in 1/72 which pretty covers a lot of schemes, I would not be so tempted to load up on these in 1/48!

This looks very tempting indeed but will have to see pre-po pics to see how this scheme turns out before deciding.

Very nice buys guys! Cgj, that marseille me109 is one I have been sitting on for a long time, always seem to be other planes to buy and never quite getting to it. Would be great too see your dio that you're working on :D Dauntless, that swordfish is sweet! 8) Love the way the swinging wings is wonde...

Here's what I'm thinking with regards to costs increase, Wages. Its not just the tens or hundreds of factory workers that are being paid more. You have to include the supervisors, admin support staff, managers, executives & directors. Their wage increases goes up accordingly and exponentially. You a...

Cjg476, Good to hear you're still busy with 1/72 8) Not surprising about being addicted to 1/72, there is so much good quality choices out there that there seems to endless stuff to collect :D I too collect 1/72 armor and Dragons seems to be the best in balance of quality and price though it has got...

Nice score on the Lanc Dauntless, at great price to boot 8) Its cool that there is the connection with your name. Rhodesia was one of the schemes on my wanted list, like you I only wanted a regular Lanc, with the dambusters a distant alternative. I managed to finally get the Cheshire Lanc a little m...

This sounds like a possible covert flanking maneuver by JSI

But keen to see what the repaint is

Nicely done hworth

Nice!

Yes do enter in Ram's Raffle

I agree with Corey that the $40-80 prices of Walmart seems to be underpriced for these fantastic pieces back then. There is no way around it, the way BBI priced its product, roughly between big retail store and ebay, is gonna piss off somebody. Especially those who just recently bought Golden Dragon...

That price is a little high but I'd probably willing to pay that too for Heavenly Body.

This is the painful pinch in the pocket we have to go thru for starting late in the diecast game, if we're even lucky to find one to buy that is

If all the 3 pieces came from a single figure, they should be from the Forces of Valor Bravo (not Barvo :lol: ) Team, Delta Force Operator CSM Ben Acosta http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-18-US-Army-Delta-Force-Team-Operator-Bravo-Team-Acosta-BBI-GI-Joe-21st-Century-/330699073382?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=...

Ahhh Dauntless you the one who won the B-25 Heavenly Body from UK!? I was gonna bid on it but of all the stupid things to do I channel surfed after my regular show ended and got caught up watching Hell's Kitchen to pass time and I totally missed the auction end time! I was so pissed off at myself an...

Just on this board there are at least 3 of us here wanting a Corgi 1/72 B-17
The market is just itching for another release now, bet it sells out too.

Just received my Ixo/Altaya Draken and Tony, they're fantastic and better than being called gap fillers for me

Cool pics Beeavision never knew they hanged them like that

Agree with Dauntless, this is looking like the definitive origins of the the word "Hangar"

So the Sidewinder release probably isn't the camo/aggressor scheme then but a regular operational hi-vis/low-vis scheme

My comment "Stupid is......" was not aimed at our Brazilian friend, at all, it was aimed at a target closer . Guys that read jokes and don't see jokes, they see the dreaded "racist" rants. Oh, the horror. 8) Another joke. See, I realize now that I'll just have to indicate when a joke pops up, for y...

Cool of you to post Blacksnakes

You are right that if this was posted in bst good traders it'll get lost in it and most none the wiser. We could all use a little positive stuff to balance out the Karma here

I really like this scheme

Even with the way prices are now and already having 3 F-18s in my collection, it will be very hard to resist indeed

My deal with the Corgi B-24 "Strawberry B**ch" fell thru, lost in transit. :cry: Seller was kind enough to refund me in full. But what a letdown, was really looking forward to receiving this B-24 as it was the only B-24 scheme I wanted and it was high on my wanted list. Still not totally convinced a...

Wow, been gone for a few days and I've missed so many posts here! But its really cool to have an active diecast thread going, though granted its just us few fellas making a lot of noise :lol: It'll be even cooler to have more sshq members chime in, I'm not convinced that there there are so few of us...

Found this collector's custom made cabinet for his awesome collection

http://www.diecastaircraftforum.com/mil ... binet.html

That is exactly what I have gone thru and I've been selling off other stuff to feed my diecast addiction. When I first started collecting diecast, my plan was to be very focused and get one of each of the most iconic (Spitfire, Mustang, Stuka, etc) planes around in 1/72. That soon became impossible ...

Nice of this lawyer to use other sellers' pictures for his items

and then he shamelessly watermarks his own photos

Bravo.
