Regarding the new secret announcement from Bad Cat about a $140 plane being announced at Toy Fair on Sunday, do you think it will be from Admiral Toys, BBI or 21st Century?

I dont think it will be 21st.With all the recent problem badcat had with getting the avenger i dont think they would take a chance like that with them this soon.

Well it could be 21st. As they said this was in the works even before the tbf mess up they had with 21st
Could not think of anything to put here.

I would hope for BBI to make one, because I really love the detail they put in their models, and they pilots are really cool too, That would be awesome if a B-17 actually came with a 10 man, or 8 man crew!!!

BBI hasn't done anything new lately. (Other than repaints.)

They must be doing something new.

When was the last time Mike chimed in with any news?

militarytoyshop seems to be cozy with AT, and 21C caused BadCat some serious issues with the Avenger. BadCat has teamed up with bbi before, so I'll bet they're at it again. Can't wait to see (sounds like we'll know tomorrow!).

Sounds like it could be a BBI F-14 Tomcat given the price point. That bird is a little lager than the F-18 inwhich usually goes for about $90.00. Badcat Usually has alot of exclusives with them.

Hard to argue bbi:
A) They are not going to be at the show
B) They NEVER release coming soon info until much closer to product arrival, and this one says Xmas 07

Good money is on AT. If they have a B-17 I will be eating my words and buying Aferg a digital camera.. :? :shock:

Somebody had to have seen something today... :shock:

Post by JimBob55 » Sat Feb 10, 2007 9:17 pm

I'm betting AT. Both Admiral and BadCat have given notice for a Sunday unvieling. So if this is true, we're looking at one item. If BadCat has teamed up with someone else, then the good news is that there will be two unveilings!

I'm looking forward to seeing more up-to-date photos on the AT Dauntless and Skyraider, too! Yummy! :P
