For crying out crimony...

Instead of talking about how awesome the B-25 will be, I'm going to take this opportunity to again complain that it's not an A-10.

Sarcasm intended.

VMF115, I know a guy... names Vinny the Fixer. He makes house calls... even if you don't want them.

I really like the B-25 especially the later gunships that would strafe Japanese shipping but I think I'll pass on this one for now. I'll hold out for my A-10.

Wonder how the A-10 is sooo much more costly than this one....

A-10'ers, you have your own 10+ threads, leave this one without the damn A-10.

Post by **aferguson** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 4:26 pm

Oh My! I never thought this day would come. This thing will weigh a ton i bet. Better reinforce your ceilings boys.

Will be something to see. Where i will put it, i have no idea.

Well, hot damn! Do you rekon they are far along or is this another teaser? Sometime within the next 18 months would be great. Though, with the track record of the TBF, I am not holding my breath. But, I sure as hell am going to need a bigger house to hold this one. The wife is ancy as it is, and I certainly plan on owning repaints of this one. Maybe if 21st asks me real nice, I will let them have a look at my nose art collection so they can come up with a scheme no model company has ever done.

Agreed.

I feel it is right and proper for myself or others to express our opinion freely since we are not insulting any individuals here. If you have a problem with me and my said opinions then put them on a PM.

Here here, well put moth. This is a B-25 thread not an A-10 thread. Hopefully this won't turn into yet another thread run-a-muck...

Grateful to have the B-25 coming, Thanks 21st!!

Hopefully the first one is a Doolittle Raider..

Here's a pic to give an idea of the size it will be..

Jerico: and we're just expressing our opinions that we're getting a bit weary of all the A-10 stuff and it's really, really not needed yet again here, in this thread, about the exciting new release of the B-25.

I agree I'm just angry with 21st. I should not be raining on your parade I'll keep it to the A-10 forums or the 21st one since they are the one I have a problem with. Congratulations though on the B-25 If they make a gunship I'm sure I'll get one too.

Didn't you get that one as well, aferg? The nice thing about the 21c B-25 is that it won't cost quite so much as that model and will have more detail

VMF115 · Post by **VMF115** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 4:54 pm

I want a B-25, G and J Gunship also

WOW! I just got the news. A 1:18th scale B-25! I am so excited I can hardly type. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN THIS IS COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wreckchaser · Post by **wreckchaser** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 4:59 pm

WOW, never thought we would see one of those. Anyone want to buy a couple of teenagers?

I'll have to sell everything that's hanging and then some.Nice pic Aferg, Air Apache love those Pacific birds

USCGSARdog · Post by **USCGSARdog** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 5:15 pm

WOW...... I am impressed. 21C is really stepping up on this one.

I too questioned whether or not we would ever see a subject such as the B-25 in 1/18 scale. Looks like I'll be reinforcing the ceilings in my plane room after all.

Nice Job 21C!

I really hope that the one shown isn't the basis for the release. Late war model with a mix of early war markings.

Post by **aferguson** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 5:29 pm

Tman: yes i got one of those r/c's a couple of months ago. The 21c version will probably be cheaper but i doubt it will have more detail. This model is very detailed, despite being an r/c kit. I was quite surprised. It's also nice and light so no worries about coming home to find a smashed B-25 on the floor and a big hole in the ceiling.

With the modular approach 21c will no doubt take on their B-25 i'm sure i'll be getting a few of them, especially the gunship version and probably a doolittle too.
