I was going through some old posts and came across this thread titled hip hip hurrah for 21st C or something like that.

It is full of jinxing statements. A regular group of white line ocean liner investors we were

Lol, good find. Sad really.

Funny you should bring this up because earlier today I was looking up at my 21st Spitfire, 190A, P51B and D models and the PZ38T, Marders and Hetzer and thinking how much it sucks that 21st had just reached such a high point of detail and realism with those models only to slowly roll over and die.

I just hope te molds are for sale. I don't want to see any beautifully modeled lime green and pink hetzers, marders (and god knows what was in the pipe) mixed in with off scale modern soldiers and boats in an ugly ass 500+ piece play set at Family Dollar Made in/ from China Of course..then again. I can always primer over pink plastic!

I just wish I had purchased more Spitfires and repainted them myself and affixed different decals......

You're lucky. Here in the Chicago area the Walmarts are completely dry of 21st Century. Even the TRU's are mostly empty shelves.... If I have to, I will pay the higher prices at a hobby shop. It's tough to havr to pay higher prices than $15.00. I've been extremely spoiled by Walmart, especially how I used to clean up in the clearance aisle.

All the WMs in my AO are empty except some 1/32 playsets. I think when their warehouses are emptied 21C will be gone.
