I believe the 1st series radio operator you are referring to was a 1st series figure with a Build-O-Rama radio pack. Looked like it could have been part of the series but it was just a custom.

Man, how I would love to see that PBR produced. Didn't someone here acquire the prototype PBR somehow, or am I hallucinating again? (Lack of new XD withdrawal)

Why do I have a feeling that the B-24 is going to be a major problem and that it will have as long a delay as the Avenger did? Is this going to be a project that never gets off the ground? I dont think that will happen but I do see some problems with it.
