Wow!!!

I remember those sets. I had the D-Day invasion set and got it from Children's Palace. It's been quite a while but if I remember correctly, my set had the 2 tan 1/72'ish scale B-17s that had retractable landing gear and green "camo" stickers, Airfix US soldiers for both sides, 2 green P-51s, 2 silve...

Hi Cabe, Wizards of The Coast changed the A&A minis scale about 2 years ago if I remember correctly. The first set of the upscaled vehicles (2.0) is called 1939-1945 and is a re-scale of the more popular vehicles that came out in the first 5 sets - Base Set, Set II, Contested Skies, D-Day, and Reser...

After months on re-decorating the family room I was finally able to break this bird out to assemble it as I had ran out of room. My question is, where do the struts for the main landing gear rest? I do see a tab where it appears that it would go and I'm assuming that the strut would go on the side o...

I found several set B's in on of the TRU's in my AO last night. Nice sculpts. Definately worth the $5.00. Cruizin, What rules do you use to game in this scale? I made up some rules with my son a while back but I would like to find a published rule set that works better. I find that Crossfire works ...

The Toys R Us in Columbus has more Jagdtigers in stock between them than was actually produced by the Germans in WWII. I just wish that those Pnzr 38s and Marders show up soon. Although I did see a new FOV StuGIII w/o skirts but it contained a 4 man set - 2 were crew and 2 were riders.

I got to go to another Toys R Us yesterday and found tons of Set A. :D Now I have 4 of each of those and will be doing some wargaming today with some long time friends. I noticed that these new Germans are noted as Set VI. Shouldn't they be Set VII???? Set 1 and 2 came in the large playset, Set 3 ha...

Contact Sgt Chris Taylor so you can get those forms to claim your absconded Tiger tank.

Knowing my luck, this has already been posted on here but I'll post it anyways. I found Set B of the German Series VI at Toys R Us. They are the same Germans that came with the Firefly set. Set B was the only set that had and there was a ton of them. Set B contains the kneeling/shooting soldier, the...

When I was out "window shopping" yesterday I saw some new 1/144 airplanes in Toys R Us. There's a new twin pack with the ME-262 and a Spitfire. I almost bought it but the Spitfire was PINK. I'm going to wait for a more "traditional" paint scheme.

I found the Hungarian 190 at Wally's last weekend. I really, really like this one although I'd love to have a more familiar paint scheme - Priller's or Schnell's would be nice.

My Fireflys and Priests are plastic as well. The last metal vehicles that I've bought by them were the two German trucks/halftrack trucks. I just received a Porche turret KT from BatCat and noticed the lack of weight on it. We do need new tanker figs too.

That's just the kind of response I expected. :roll: * If members can go after BoB Hughs , then why's Steelbonnet any different ? ... Because he lives in the UK ? ... Sheesh ! Mitch v MG Plain and simple - money, time, and resources. If someone wants to PM me his info, I'll see what I can do. I'm no...

I have a Maru$hin collection too.

Too bad their Tonys are painted like that - that's the coolest looking one. Kobayashis?

If you're going to buy any of the A&A Minis, buy them by the case. There are 24 Rares to collect. A case will give you 2 of each common such as the Mosin-Nagant rifleman and the Arisaka rifleman, 1 of each uncommon piece such as the Sdkfz 251 or the T-34/76, and 12 of the 24 rares. A case makes it a...

I really like 21st soldiers for the price, quantity, and detail. I have 4 of each set so far except for the US Set 3 of which I only have 2 of each. I'm really into wargaming and need the extra figs. I'll agree that there is a few sculpts that just don't make sense but can be modified to work. Take ...

I saw an ad in the latest WW2 magazine and they have a new series of A&A called "1939-1945" or something like that. I was thinking the pieces may be repaints of earlier miniatures. Anybody have any intell on these yet? I was also looking to build a 3D battle map(grid) for the A&A. I recall some one...

All of my 1/48 are diecast metal and sitting in curios but I think that this Tony will be an exception to the rule.

Now if they will make this same exact one in 1/32 I'll be a happy guy.

All I've seen lately is the 190s. I just started collecting these and have 2 of each of the Frank, Hellcat, 190, and one lonely P-51. I hope that the Zero/Dauntless combos start hitting the Wallys and Toys R Us' around here soon.

C2000

I really like the 190D. The newer model of Hackl's 109 is sweet as well. I have Don Gentile's P-51B but haven't had a chance to take her out of the box yet - and I've had it for about a month now. :oops: I'm really looking forward to the 190A. I'd gave my right arm for a nice 1/32 B5N2 with the mott...

This is really good news for you guys. I'm really happy about this. I can't believe it took a whole year to have him arrested. I hope that each and every one of you gets your stuff back. I gave that fool almost 2 weeks to make things right with you guys and all he did was send nasty e-mails to peopl...

I have several of both and they are worth the money. Although I've never painted my, I'm sure a coat of Krylon Fusion, some weathering, and rust marks would really bring out their charm. They're pretty big as well. I think that the Amtrack is a little bigger than a 32X Sherman and the Higgins can ea...

I've just started collecting these airplanes. The Zero looks cool but I wish that the Dauntless had the rear canopy open with the MG sticking out. Recently I saw some new 1/144 tanks - Brummbar, Jagdpanther, and a Pnzr III. I didn't get to see the rest of what was in the box as my wife showed up wi...

I'm excited about getting these. I wish that they would do more with the Pnzr IV chassis - Nashorn. Russian armor would rock!!!
