Matthew,
Dumb question...say I would like to pick up the 229 kit in the future. How long do you plan to produce these?
Beautiful work my man!

Re: Anybody getting FOV's 2011 1/16 Tiger 1?
Absolutely not. Pretty model, but I also have a 1/16 HL R/C Tiger, repainted with aftermarket parts at a fraction of this cost, that looks wonderful (tooting my own horn).
$250 price tag to $600???....exactly....WTF?????

Re: RC Plane Talk
Just picked up a ParkZone Ultra-Micro Mosquito mk VI today at my local hobby shop. This little beauty is AWESOME!!!

Re: BBI F-16 price increase
$179.00 for a mold that's been around for how long? Now they're just pumping plastic. I want an F-16 after seeing them at OSAN AFB, believe me (I don't currently have one). But it's a tough pill to swallow. I was excited even at $150 with free shipping. Now we're approaching $200. And yes, I did pay...

Re: What was the worst item ever made?
My 21C P-40 has almost flown itself into the wall because of the horrible tail wheel design.

Well, considering my favorite nose art has already been done (Catmouth Hellcat).
Probably, the Aleutian P-40E "Tiger". That is one great scheme!

Not getting my hopes up, but we will see in a couple of weeks.

The whole story reported on Bad Cat's blog, which is coming out of Merit, is a bunch of B.S.
What's the real story if you can elaborate?

Re: King Tiger on EBAY??
I disagree.
I'm a 1/18 aircraft guy, but have a few smatterings of armor. I'm pretty god-darned sure All-Go is watching this whole thing go down and it's pretty obvious from watching this thread and the auction, that the interest is there.

Re: King Tiger on EBAY??
But not the only example in a scale that's incredibly close. The A-10 doesn't have an "equal" (using an 1/18 piece as an example and the auction that was on Ebay several months ago).
I still think it's ludicrous

Don't know aferg. Shoot, I haven't been keeping up on rcuniverse.
The more and more I look at this thing, the more it looks like 1/32 given the molded on details.

If All-Go does make the KT this year....Then cue the "Price is Right" losing music for the winner of this auction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ytCEuuW2_A Then again, this auction is ridiculous in my opinion given that there are already a couple of examples in 1/16 (R/C no less) WAY BELOW this bid.

$630.99 at the present moment...REALLY????
I'd take a R/C Tamiya KT any friggin' day of the week at this price and have a helluva lot more fun building it, painting it, destroying the yard and terrorizing the neighbor's cat with it.
