Small Scale Military Headquarters

Not sure why everyone doubts me? 21st Century is in trouble and hasn't released much of anything new lately. Stock piles are drying up everywhere. In my area, one walmart has stopped carrying 21st century altogether and most of all the other stores have cut back on the product line. Readers of your...

Not a treasure and not quite scrap metal. I was out this morning and showed the figures to some antique dealers. I also heard back from Doug Drearth at Michigan Toy Soldier Company. They are Korean reproductions of Grey Iron toys soldiers. Not that I didn't believe kuvaszsleepybear. I was just looki...

I can say for sure that they are not Barclay. They also do not match any Gray Iron figures that I've seen.

Do you know of a web page that shows "South Korean" Gray Iron toy soldiers?

I've done several searches, but can't find any.

Well, there's a set of them on ebay. Unfortunitly the seller knows about as much as I do about them. One thing though. If his are repaints and mine are repaints. They were painted by the same person. They have the same colors and flaws. http://cgi.ebay.com/6-old-cast-iron-soldiers_W0QQitemZ130255109...

They sound valuable!

I'm not that lucky. Most likely scrap.

You should be able to click the links to see some pics. Best I can do for now.

Will try to post the pics again tommorrow.

I was at the fleamarket sunday and in an old rusted coffee can, buried in a box of old rusted tools I found these. They are WWI Doughboys? They are three inches tall. The figures themselfs are 70mm. They are made of cast iron! any help anyone can give me IDing these would be greatly apresiated. http...

The antenna should be in the little baggie like Oli said. It fits between the canopy and the clear navigation light or whatever that is. Might have to drill hole with the tip of an x-acto which is what I had to do because mine wasn't punched out all the way. Yup, it's there. I would have throw it a...

The only thing I want to know is, where's the antenna? On the top of mine in the hole where the antenna should be? Is a piece of clear plastic.

Shouldn't there be an antenna?

Otherwise the two I have have no flaws. At least none I've found.

I can't B/S/T yet but, I have been watching this forum and it seems to work well just the way it is.

If you have been following this aircraft on ebay. You would have seen that Warpaint bought several of them at prices higher then he is now selling them for.

Only an observation.

Although the Dauntlass is one of my favorite WWII aircraft. I'm still going to pass. This one looks better then the first. But still, a Dauntless should have more color to it. I'll wait untill they come out with a Coral Sea or Midway version. (Hopefully)

Toy runs can be dangerous. Yesterdays run gave my wife the bug. After work today she wanted to head off in a different direction. Who was I to say no, so up the coast we go. Of interest to you guy's we stopped at five walmarts, two targets, kmart, hobby town and tuesday morning. Three of the walmart...

Something I've used to get really stuck on crud off of models and other things is isobutane/propane. More commanly known as chewing gum remover. You can get it at any carpet care center. Just don't freeze your fingers useing it.

After posting on the boards here this morning about the P-51 Mustang ( Double Nuthin ). I got to thinking. I've seen this plane, I had it in my hands. If it does turn out to be a super rare model. I'm going to kick myself, HARD!!! The only Target I saw the four star line at is 30 miles away. So, I p...

Here's one on E-barf in the regular box.

Can't say I'll but one of these aircraft, but it's good to see new products finally showing up.

trouble is the cost of doing business in China. I've been watching this thread and waiting. You have all been talking about the symptoms and not the disease. China is the problem. Companies started pulling out of China last year. The quality and in some cases the safety goods coming out of China is...

Vehicles other than tanks (trucks, armored cars) The inglorious heros of every war. That's what we need more of. You can find all kinds of 1/32 aircraft and figures out there. (you will have to assemble and paint them) 21stC and FOV have plugged the hole for tanks. Now we need the support equipment!

I hate Kmart also, but the next time I'm near one??

This is great news! I have a Sd Kfz 232 and it fits in well with my 21c and FOV. I'd really like to get an M-8 or M-20. Maybe even the jeep with the 37mm.

Anyone have any info on who, what, when and where this may happen?

Both TRUs in my AO have rest their military stuff and moved it to a new shelf a few isles over.

Same here, with some new 1/18 aircraft. A P51 and ME109 that I've never seen before. Of course I have'nt been looking for these.

Don't give up yet. The Spits just showed up here.

I did make to walmart yesterday. The reset is done. Nothing else was on clearance. :( (I did scan) The space for the 1/32 veihicles is gone. :evil: They had or had tags for, 1/18 figures 1/32 figures 1/32 play sets (old ones) 1/32 aircraft. (a bunch of old ME109s are on the shelf now) 1/48 vehicles ...

Why Do They Lie? The FOV P-39

Simple, so you will by it. I really wanted the P-39. I like the lines for some reason. I found one at hobbytown. As soon as I saw the landing gear in the bottom of the box. I put it back on the shelf. I was very disapointed.

Just got home from Wal-mart. Their doing their fall reset. Picked up a set and a half of the 1/32 DAK figures for $3. each. (all they had) They were still marking stuff down when I left. I'll be going back to check tomorrow.

Yes, there are three new empty pegs for the figures in the isle.
