BBI Me 109

Post by lightning2000 » Sun Jun 15, 2008 6:00 am

Hi,
Not looking to step on anyone's toes, but no, this plane is not an e-tailer exclusive, although it is being brought in by a different distributor than the other two recent BBI aircraft (Dauntless and Wildcat). Seems like musical distributors of late for this and some other general release products.

Lightning2000 is correct. This is not exclusive to any particular etailer as we and others also have them coming.

There was a question regarding the tail cross that I did want to mention to the good folks here. The distributor mentioned that all pieces will come with a set of the correct swastika decals for the tail. :D

Cheers mates!

Or at least canted at the correct angle so the decal can be placed over it.

Just saw this on BCA's site. I've already got three Bf-109Gs, but will order this fourth one 8) It looks FAR cooler than the 21c version and that is tough for me to say as the 21c Bf-109 ranks as one of my most favorite of their 1:18 scale aircraft lineup. I am very glad BBI is not simply doing a copy of the G-6, but has instead done the earlier G-2 and given it a bunch of unique features, like that engine! Also, its in DAK markings :D

109G

Another 109G! What we've all been asking for.

The figure looks awesome, as always with bbi.

PS - Someone said this was coming and people vocally doubted him even though his other bbi info was correct (1:32 104).

I can't wait till this comes out. I'm thankful for so many cool 21st Century ones, but this ups the ante in detail.
