I am newbie

Post by corsair bob » Tue Dec 08, 2009 4:02 pm

Hi, I am new here and excited about this hobby. I found out about this forum from a dealer at the Heroes Show. I bought a F14 and I can’t wait for the F15 or SU-27. I am mostly interested in modern stuff but I do have a few WWII planes.
Thank you guys for all your information.
Bob

Welcome aboard, how do you like the F-14?
The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent.

Welcome corsair bob.

It usually is a bit more positive around here.
But the F-14 has got people pretty wound up.

Do you have a 1/18 F-4U Corsair?
If not,go with the BBI version.
It is better than the 21 Century one. :wink:

Hello BoB
Welcome to our discussion. Any insight on the F 14 would be welcome as many of us have one on pre order. Opinons are varied and quite colorful.
Did u see any other 1/18 military of interest?

THANK YOU!!!
This is a great forum.... I am a member on another forum and they are not as professional as you all. They tend to be on the crude side.
