Small Scale Military Headquarters

The only place that seems to still have them is Aiken's Airplanes for about a hundred bucks. They say that have free shipping for all orders over 40 dollars and supposedly have all five in stock. I managed to pick up all five over the last couple months, but they quickly dried out with 21C demise. S...

Flyboy FX is under 18 and therefore shouldnt be posting in this part of the forum.

S1 Mustang, Lou IV, followed by the S1 ME-109 as soon as it came out.

Pudgy is a great looking airplane and it looks really nice sitting there in line with the Wine, Women and Song and the Cal Cutie!

Awesome! Thanks Jason, I look forward to buying one or more of those beauties!

I have some M&M minis...will that get me any 1:18?

From what I have read, I wouldnt have anything to do with that bunch of crooks. A long time ago, they had a reputation for making fine, albeit expensive models. Now, all I have heard is bad customer service, shady dealings and rising prices. Possibly even theft. I wouldnt trust them at all! That is ...

Well I tell you what, if I paid $500 for a model and it came in the mail with decals sticking up, I would be three shades of bent out of shape! I put up with fingerprints in paint, only because it only cost me 30-40 dollars. $500 dollars better darn well give me perfection if I am going to spend tha...

Are they really 1:18 scale?

I did the same as Tinman. I just bought one for display while I am here in Turkey, and my other one will stay in the box back home in North Dakota. As soon as I saw it, I felt it was the pinnacle of their work. Little did I know they were already on their way down at this point!

Sorry mis-double post.

Well that's a shame, but then I was never fond of giving that much money to someone with such a long lead time, no matter how good they MIGHT be. Especially now that I know that I may not get what I ordered at all and have no recourse to fix it. I hope your post doesnt get you kicked off the forum, ...

Spud, I understand now why you wanted the Squitch. I myself would kill to be able to do some of the customs that I have seen here, especially the ones Aferg has done. I can only imagine how nice it is to be able to do new repaints and not actually having to wait for them to be released. Good luck on...

G'Day, been a long time since I was last down under, probably close to 1999 or 2000. I wish the Mig Mad Mavis was released and hoping that JSI will do it. The Huff really isnt that bad, in my opinion. The Squitch is the only F-86 I dont have and that was because the design seemed really basic to me....

I dont remember Mig Mad Mavis ever being released. Only the Squitch and the Huff.

Now a 1:18 scale PBY would be something I WOULD be interested in!

Ehh, not interested.

I sure hope so. I proudly have all of the Avenger schemes to include each of the Flight 19 Avengers and would love to have the Bush Avenger. But, Im not holding my breath as they seem to be a little preoccupied on larger modern aircraft.

Not that I can remember, but it has been a while since I looked at it, and with it being in storage 10,000 miles away, it will be difficult to tell you. I see how you are. Can't even do one little favor for a fellow collector. :) Youre right. Im being selfish. I beg for forgiveness. I will start wa...

Impressive work!

Very nice!

I picked one up as well. I had broken a strut on my original and was going to display it from the ceiling to make up for it, but with that price, I couldnt resist!

Im here if they actually get made. I still really enjoy my F-16 and pine for an F-18. But too many of them and I will have to find a house for all of them.

I have seen Top Gun a hundred times, does that count for anything?

Guess its time to start rolling pennies again...
