Re: New Merit 1/18 DAUNTLESS DISCUSSION

Did anyone get their shipping notice from on-line dealers other than Badcats?

Re: New 1/48 Erich Hartmann Black Tulip Bf-109G

I don't think Algo is associated with this Hartmann 109 or the Redtail Mustang. The company is BH Toys but it sure looks like the old 21st century molds

Re: New 1/48 Erich Hartmann Black Tulip Bf-109G

The 3 WM near me that had the P-51s still have about 6-10 in each store, so it may be awhile before I see the 109's. If anyone needs any of the Redtail P-51s for actual cost and shipping let me know (maybe I can move some their inventory that way)

Re: 1 32 Rufe

I still kick myself for repainting a Big Hog Corsair because there were more than enough at WM at that time. The repaint looks good but the original Big Hog could fund a couple kits.

Re: Any Interest in a Swap Meet?

Do you have any dates in mind yet? I would probably make the trip if the timing is right. I could make a weekend trip and stop at Wright Patterson as well as the Warbird Museum

Re: Hobby Master 1:48 F-4U Corsair

I have the Kepford on order, should be here next week. Now I have to decide whether to buy more 1/48 Corsairs or continue to buy 1/72 Phantoms. I noticed Flying Mule is soldout of Kepford, Pete's raised the price back to $79.95 for Kepford and Boyington is pre-sold out. I also have 8 - 1/18, 5 - 1/3...

Re: WHERE IS THE F-100 SUPER SABRE ?

I think it was PWP designs that proposed the F-100. They are the outfit that custom painted the Corsairs and Hellcats

Re: F-86D Sabre Dog "Tiger Sharks" 1:72 Falcon Models FA7230

What I have read is it is a pretty decent model. Biggest complaint was the rocket pack was not removable. A good review on the Diecast Hangar Pub forum http://tdhp.49.forumer.com/viewtopic.ph ... 92#p141823

Re: 1:72 Collecting Question

If you are looking for 1/72 Dragon Wings or Dragon Armor you might want to check Great Models http://www.greatmodels.com They are being acquired by another company and have some pretty good prices

Re: Wings of Glory 1/48 Red Tails P-51B Mustang at Wal-mart

Found them at 2 more WM today. That makes a total of 5 stores within 40 miles of home. Looks like they restocked after they got down to 1 or 2 on the shelf. The restock does not seem to be moving

I think the winter Camo was 81203 Battle of the Bulge and the D-day had alot of mud. In either case $17 sounds good

Re: Wings of Glory 1/48 Red Tails P-51B Mustang at Wal-mart

One problem I see, when i went back to buy another couple the stock clerk had put diecast trucks in front of the planes so you could not see them. You would never know they were there unless you read the shelf tags
