Any rumors heard out there on the S-2 release? This seeme to be dragging a little more that I had hoped. Maybe they're making sure the quality issue is back up to parr before they ship any more....or Wal-Mart has them all in the back under that palate of Schwinne Sting-Rays!

Actually Andrew, I believe that the SIM this film (V-1) was created from was the IL-2 that Teamski and I told you about a few month ago which was in fact created by Russian designers. There are some much better films on the site...and some are created using a multiple of flight SIM programs (I think...

San Jose Wal-Mart

Looked like a tornado ripped through the toy department (no joke)! I found 1 Tiger going for $31.00 and a couple of those assult vehicles (Gulf war =?) for $31.00 and 2 , 1/6 Scale R/C tanks way up on a shelf...unable to see the price! No Planes at all...My e-bay buddy snatched them all up last week...

Andrew you hit it right on the head. He's a buddy of mine (although he didn't call me to let me know they were at the store and at a discount) and he lucked out and got them at a discount at the San Jose Wal-Mart....

He's a straight up guy if any of you wish to purchase it's safe through him.

doesn't it seems strange?

Nothing is showing up at Walmart regarding the bubble top or 109-G among other items? Since this should be the mainstay of 21st Century's bulk of income they certainly would have produce a large quantity of items to ship to Wal-Mart? Strangely the only things I've seen have been FW 190 Chevrons in v...

If you're going to be a criminal heist diamonds, rob a bank...but screwing a bunch of hobby loving Peter Pan's (I refuse to grow up myself) is really bizarre?...and stupid.

did the ME 109G somehow get overshadowed?

I'm surprised this hasn't stirred more excitement?.....potentially the best plane they've created to date...add in a russian YAK or LAGG...better yet a russian Hurricane (of course with the battle of britain repaint to follow) and viola you're got the Battle of Kurske on your own ceiling!.....

San Jose CA

Buzzer,

There is also a new store in Los Gatos on Los Gatos Blvd, just past Lark Ave. called "The Toy Soldier", they carry X/D too! along with other very cool stuff. I don't know if they've received the bubble top yet...but I'm sure he'll get them.

Buzzer and Raiderad6

The South San Jose Walmart on Monterey usually carries stuff and puts it out pretty fast and the Gilroy store seems to have stuff most if the time..I don't think the Gilroy location gets hit very often due to it's client base...so those might be good locations....The store in Los Banos had plane for...

Afergeson,

you think a desert version will eventually follow?......I was thinking a custom jobbie if I had to!.....the possibilities on this one are huge...so many great pilots were at the helm of this baby it's hard to know where to start!

Not too shabby!......I was hoping for a desert (North Afrika) version..
I think this one I might have to get one of each as they roll out. Again I think it may show up at Wally's very soon!...
