Small Scale Military Headquarters

time for 21c to do a repaint of the Spitfire, methinks.. Sadly we won't be seeing any. While I was at the MTS booth at EAA Airventure I ran into someone. I asked him if several questions about future 1/18 models including the possibility of a Spitfire repaint. He told me that we wouldn't be seeing ...

Thanks for the suggestions! The Sd kfz 11 is probably the one I will build.

After purchasing a defective halftrack from TRU, I sold the main body to a friend for customizing and here's what I have left: http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk155/Superfortress04/100_1747.jpg Not much, but I'm looking for ideas on what to do with them, hopefully to incorporate them into some cu...

Nice work! I love the officer.

Now need the tank.

Hopefully these figures will replace the endless supply of platoon figs at my local walmart......

Lake Elmo target had several german figures and a green Sherman.

www.Aikensairplanes.com now has mig mad mavis listed for early 2009 and the B-25 and F-4 for late 2009. Looks like it will be another year without seeing them.

Thanks grockwood, that's one problem solved. But a new one has surfaced- there are noticable gaps between the door and where the other part of the hinge mounts. Without it the doors cannot open. With it, it looks unrealistic. Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, is there an easy way to f...

well, my worst fears were realized today. I put the chains on the rotor and the rotor is now too heavy for the motor to turn it. So, at this point i have two choices. I can either finsish it as a static display Crab, or i can make a new rotor and use black string instead of chain. This will be ligh...

B-29 what 1/18 F-4 are you talking about and how much is it and who makes it ?I to am thinking about getting a F-4 in R/C but the one im looking at is 400.00 and its made of fiberglass by yellow Co,and not bad looking in Viet Nam camo colors, is the one you are talking about silver and about 200.00...

Still looking for painting ideas. Has anyone found any other paint schemes than the desert one?

Can not see buying a airplane that in order to look at it you need a magnifying glass!! 1/72 F-4 just to small , on the brite side please post some pictures of it I just like looking at F-4s in any scale !!just me, will not buy one that small, where is the F-4 in 1/18 that they said would be out in...

Thanks Razor. Since I am almost finished except for some more detailing, does anyone know of a eastern front/normandy paint scheme that would be accurate for this type of vehicle?

Here it is so far. More pics will follow as the build progresses.

I agree that both the 21st and admiral pilot are horrible. Luckily, I have only broken off one arm of my 21st F-86 pilot, and managed to repair it with a custom built peg.

Me to. Me three. I think I would be willing to buy the B-25 one part at a time for the next year. Front fueselage, rear fuselage, wing, tail assembly... :roll: Me four. The F-4 has haunted my dreams for toooo looong. I want to see the B-25 next to my custom p-61. "sigh" its gonna be a loooooooooooo...

The Roseville TRU had several Stuka zu fusses, several George Laven F-104s, M16 halftracks, and some DAK arty spotters.

Not too many people here would sacrifice a plane for a dio.

Good job.

Kevin.

My plane may suffer this fate if I can't find new landing gear, and bbi hasn't responded to my replacement request.
Anyway, great story and dio.

I went to 3 targets today they all restocked the modern figures.

Theres no more ww2 figs :cry

I have a friend that works at one he told me they have 2 cases in the back and both are the modern figures.

The ww2 figs have also dissapeared here.

The WWII U.S. and German soldiers are restocked all over the area, and Modern U.S. Soldiers and Marines are returning back on the pegs but they are all now at a new price..... $5.19. Not sure if this is only in certain areas I'll have to do more recon over the weekend to know for sure. Maybe we wil...

Here's what I was going to do with my Sd. kfz. 7, not sure if it's realistic or not though:

I have been trying to get troop cars for this same project for a month!! If you built it to pull a 1/18 V-2 then this will very weird!

I was just at three WMs today. All of them still had more platoon figures! No dual packs or other figures at all.

How long do you think hasbro will have the indy line go for? heres what they have so far http://www.cooltoyreview.com/Hasbro_IJ.asp What else could they make? Here is a list of vehicles they could make: Aircraft: - Biplane w/floats (ROTLA) - Ford tri-motor (TOD) - DC-3 (TLC) - German biplane (TLC) ...
