Looks to me like the Starship Enterprise. That would be neat in 1/18, but I didn't even know someone is making it........ anyway, the pic is the proof.. Can't wait? Is Wallyworld gonna sell it?

Re: Free--Kindle Ebook: ARMORED THUNDERBOLT (M4 Sherman)
With "Armored Thunderbolt" and Zaloga's companion book "Armored Attack, 1944", there is nothing about the Sherman Tank and all it's variations that is missed.
These two books are the jewels in my library.
Don't know how the hundreds of pics turn out on Kindle.

Re: What is the best 1/18 WWII US Jeep??
The same guy that is selling the "Welly" Jeep is also selling the WW2 G-4 with three figs, for $99. Good price.
Anybody have this Welly Jeep? Does it have an engine? Just bothers me that they leave off something as simple but important as hood latches.

Re: What is the best 1/18 WWII US Jeep??
The Devil is in the details. I always liked the Gate, especially at the $5 price. I loved the steering and the detailed engine paint. Couple things I don't like about the Gate Jeep are the thick wood like steering wheel, the lack of hood lock down latches and the tread on the tires. WW2 Jeeps used m...

Re: XD For Sale in NYC
Thanks for thinking of me but I'm not really a plane guy and I have all the 1/18 vehicles except those from our custom guys. My main interest, as some of our members know, right now, are 1/6 prebuilt vehicles. I'm into both 1/18 and 1/6 and I would love to see Digger's collection before he sells it,...

Re: What is your Favorite WW 1 Plane ?
I vote for "None of the Above".
Since I was a kid..... yes, long ago I was a kid, I loved the Bristol Fighter, known as the "Brisfit". Stood against the best and served the longest until the late 1920's.

Re: 1/16 Merit WW2 15cm sFH18 Howitzer
Merit has always been in various scales. I have a couple of 1/6 and 1/16 Merit pieces. If I am not mistaken, Merit is a distributor, not a manufacturer and they will sell whatever they think will sell.
Nothing wrong with that.

Re: How about showing your collection
The idea of having a separate 1/6 section has been brought up before and rejected by the mods as unnecessary. Those of us that dabble in 1/6, even serious dabbling, also have interests in other scales and collections that include many scales. We contribute to this forum and being segregated to a sep...

Your skills are super and your step by step instructions are amazing.

Besides the original use in WW2, of airfield repair, we used PSP, l...

I have a "mechanics set" from GMP called "1/18 Garage Accessories Kit" which includes a welder and a arc welder and much more.
OK, it is modern but how much have welders changed since WW2? Nicely detailed metal set.
I don't remember what I paid for it, but I got it on eBay.
