I saw the helo in its own box last fall in probably a different scheme, and this 2-pack over the holidays a few times.

Those have been out in my area since the fall. There is the pictured pack with the vehicles in the US Army scheme and there is another in a foreign cammo scheme. I think the foreign scheme may have been identified as being French...

I think the foreign camo is some sort of UN scheme, if I recall correctly. Some sort of white and blues in different shades, I think.

I saw some blue painted stuff as well and took it to be some type of police paint job.

These are 144, and they are 21st/New Millenium Toys, which are different names for the same company, the difference I believe is whether the product is walmart exclusive or general release.

I haven't seen a report on these, so I guess I've found something new... Anyways, I came across a new 1:144 Dogfight pack, with a surprise new plane - an FW-190A-8 8) It is packaged with a repaint of the F6F Hellcat in Royal Navy markings, complete with D-Day invasion stripes. The FW-190 appears to have a removable droptank, with the empty tank hardpoint piece also included. I think both planes look pretty sharp:

(Seeing the Royal Navy D-Day scheme on a 1:144 Grumman aircraft makes me think how cool it would look on a 1:18 Avenger some time down the road! Oh, and yes, a 1:18 FW-190A would be pretty cool too :wink: )

The A-8 needs to go to the 32x line up.
