Re: PTE Recons
Somebody over on the joecustoms site posted some info on some new PTE items: http://www.joecustoms.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=29400 The J-10 looks great, and I'm interested in the bunker/base looking items as well. Of course, sadly, the chances of any of this being available in the western hemi...

Re: RC Plane Talk
check out the Skyraider in this thread. Exact dimensions yet to be confirmed but it should be almost exactly 1/18. Looks pretty sharp. Retail price i've seen on the airframe only is just $60 (to be confirmed). http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1435029 Awesome! I've been lamenting not ...

Re: GI Joes for pilots in JSI Tomcat?
Also, I'm currently using two v.3 Slipstreams for my F-14; I think it is is GI Joe's most realistic looking pilot, though this fig is a bit hard to find. I think there's a bit of a passing resemblance to Maverick from Top Gun so I like him piloting my F-14 :) http://www.yojoe.com/action/04/slipstre...

What is "SRO" Ace? I haven't seen that one and I like the flight helmet you have. I've got two of the Valor Vs Venom Ace version that have a different flight helmet and suit coming, one is to be repainted as is, the other is going to be used for parts and combined with a 25th Wild Bill to make 2 di...

Re: review---"Black Knights" F-14
Yeah, I've gotta say my Black Knights Tomcat came to me in very good condition. The right rear stab didn't fully seat, but a little shaving down mostly took care of that. It is definitely all static model and not a toy - so it has some fragile parts that you have to take care not to break (I've alre...

Re: Bravo Team 1/18 single pack figures
I'd be interested to see pics/find out more about these. So are they different figures from the Fearless Forces, but just produced in the same style? Or are they the same Fearless Forces figs, but just with different packaging?

Does anyone know how the bomb and missle kits work? Are they completed but just need painted, or parts that need glued together first? I'd love some more ordnance!

There actually are separate wire cutters too parrish. But there is a flexible black bipod too, but the wirecutters are grey with black handles, hard plastic (they'd snap if you flexed them too much as they're made of styrene). Wow - I've got a lot of PTE stuff and I don't remember those. Do you kno...

Re: Calico critters houses and furnishings
Yep - I've been eyeing some of these in TRU for awhile. They have a nice display of one set up, and it looks very very close to 1:18 in all aspects. Like you said, a little pricey, but there aren't many other options for finished 1:18 buildings (e.g. the Pola buildings are less finished and more exp...

I've actually seen these in person at my local mall being demonstrated flying. I did not have anything to positively identify the scale at the time, but I was able to get a pretty good estimate just by looking considering I own the BBI 1/18 MH-6 which I'm very familiar with. It appears to be ~1/20. ...

Re: bbi British SAS 1/18 Soldiers
I only remember BBI producing one British soldier - a WWII paratrooper. I'd be very interested to see pics of these!
Though I do vaguely remember some of the BBI US modern marine figures just being repackaged as British (with no gear change or anything). Perhaps that's what these are?

It's almost always about the numbers being built...unless somebody is truly doing each one from scratch (akin to hand-carving from a solid block of wood).
