Small Scale Military Headquarters

Ok guys, here's another story I want to share with you: I e-mailed Admiral Toys' Customer Service the night that I received my plane and found the two missing stabilizers. That very same night, I received a personal e-mail from Jason telling me that my parts will be in the mail early the following m...

That would defenitely be the way to go as far as the B-17 project is concerned. As for me, I'm willing to put my money wher my mouth is. What about it 21C, BBI, Admiral..??

Crusader, I did have a problem with the canopy on my Kepford Corsair (I applied too much blow-dryer heat to it and deform it), and 21C was very helpful and promt in selling me a new one, which they sent right away. Going to their website at www.21stcenturytoys.com and sending them an e-mail may work...

OK guys, it looks like I'm having the honor to offer the first review of the magnificent Admiral Toys F-86. I received mine yesterday (3/8/06), but I was at work and did not have a chance to open it until today. Wow! First off, I love the packaging idea: No box window, and styrofoam formers to hold ...

Sky, as always, you're the man with the timely response. I'm eagerly awaiting for the reviews on this birds, which seem just as nice as the BBI "Killer Ace", or so I'm led to believe.

Greetings from Miami.

Looking for a new British Corsair. Please PM me if you have one for sale.

Thanks.

Finally bought my wasp Me-109 and the Ridge Runner P-51. Passed on the black P-47, at least for now and although it's a different version, having the fillet on the vertical stabilizer. But have not seen any Zeros or Macchis (can't ever get that right!!!) around Miami. Hope that's soon to change, sin...

Good deal Luftpanzer. After you post the pics and I really like the plane, I'll order one from you. I'm trying to share the wealth around by ordering products from all you guys who are in the business.

So long
Ed

Hello guys. I have a question for those of you who've already seen the XD Ridge Runner. Is it the same mold as the S1 version, or a new one? The 1:32 version is a miniature copy of the S1 series, and although nice, I'd not buy the XD unless it's an improved version. JohnLumley, since you sighted a l...

I ordered mine from AT directly, and a few days ago received an e-mail stating that it was shipped on 3/2. I can't wait to see this baby out of the box. It will spend at least a week on top of my display table (otherwise known as my dinning room table), something of a tradition for me. Later, it wil...

An there I was, thinking all along that the T-man was a 6' 5'' dude from Californy!!

Yesterday I found and bought the P-51 Ridge Runner, and the Me-109. I also found the new version P-47 but, I passed because I already have a lot of P-47s. I was disappointed to see the same mold used for the night version Me-109, and the same mold design of the S1 version of the 1:18 P-51s. All in a...

Hey Mig29, great job on the detailing, and thanks for sharing info on the ground crew mods. I love the picture where you can see the men's shadow on the ground. very realistic and great detail.

Finally we've got some new 21C items in one of the WMs here in Miami. I purchased (at last), my 3/4 ton Weapon Carrier (two left), and two 1:32 airplanes: The Me-109 and the P-51/ Ridge Runner . They also have the P-47 with the fillet tail, which I did not buy although they have plenty of them. Anyh...

Jason, this's great news! From the consensus here, it seems it's going to be an Me-262 alright, which bodes very well with me. Ever since I purchased my 1:32 scale, I've been wanting someone to come out with the 1:18 version. I couldn't be more glad that it's AT's next release. Your comments on acce...

Corey, thanks a lot for sharing those nice pictures of your models. I do have the same problem with several pilots and crews destined for my 1:25, B-17. But I remember as a kid in middle school, an arts project that we did, where we made a replica of a plastic clown using melted wax and a material t...

Now, that's why I call research FW. Great job on the info man.

I just received my "Langley Field" P-40 from the Military Toy Shop. The aircraft was very well packed and in good condition. It was a good purchase, handled professionally and in good time.

I'm satisfied with this transaction and would consider them for future purchases as well.

Sweet pictures hworth. I can't wait to get my airplanes, but here in Miami things are not going very well with WMs and TRUs. In fact, I've seen nothing but empty shelves since Christmas. Hope things get better here soon.

Eddie

Ok guys, this is my first attempt at publishing some photos I took at the "Wings Over Miami" airshow. The pics I selected are of an Avenger being re-conditioned to flyable condition at the local museum. www.msnusers.com/xdprojects I was impressed by the size of this bird, and hope that the restorati...

Luftpanzer, yes I'm married alright, but she's just as addicted to airplanes as I am, so that makes me a very happy dude.

I haven't had a chance to see the Bunker Hill Corsair in person, so I can't really judge it. Now this picture of the Avenger in the Bunker Hill colors are outstanding. I would not hesitate one second to buy this particular version. It's just too cool to pass up.

There you go Lady, all looking mighty nice now. Congrats!

I would put a second mortgage on my house if they came up with the B-17 in 1:18, but 1:32 would be a very nice first step indeed.

On my bench, my 1:25 scale B-17, which is going to be a total beaut once I'm finished. This baby will have rotating props with very accurate, loud radial engine sound, blue smoke during engine start, all kinds of lights and very realistic looking landing gears.
