Small Scale Military Headquarters

Here is my little set-up for them, can you tell which one is 21st

My local WM has about 20+ and are marked down to $150, I'm thinking about getting one if it falls to $100 or less. How are they overall? Fast? and are they 4WD? Are they as fun as the Stuart? Even though they are'nt a tank?

As a third choice, don't get itchy to spend your money. You can wait for a while, a couple of 1/6 customizers are talking about a White Half-track for about the same money. See what they do in six months, one of the two will have one out by then. With all the accessories that have come out for the ...

I got the M5 for Chrstmas and worked on it all weekend. First time for me doing aything like this and it was very fun. See the pics. Anyway my B-day is tomorrow and the wife said that WM has both the Abrams & Stuart(camo) for $140. Now she said I can get one or the other, but I'm torn. I would like ...

Thanks guys! With the addition of the last 2 units, I've exhausted the space on that wall. Next move.... Invaded the opposite side wall

How do you display your 1:18 aircraft? From the size of them I suppose putting them on a wall shelf or a bookcase shelf is out of the question. And what's the best way to hang them from the ceiling? Like this :) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v469/corvette01/DSC04452.jpg I was using Contico 5 sh...

PLEASE do, inquiring minds what to know

I got it from WW, its the M1025 w/ TOW missile. For the life of me can anyone tell me where these pieces do/go??????

What year or model did 21st century use for making of this tank. I'm thinking about repainting and customizing it for historical accuracy. Something in the ETO. Any inside?

Well guys I did it!! I picked up the Stuart from SAMs this evening. I only played w/ it for 15-20mins before the wife said, "OK, it has to go under the tree untill Christmas" :( Anyway that thing is AWSOME, everything you guys mentioned is right on. Thanks. The drivability, sound and sheer size :sho...

Last year I skipped it hoping to find it as a "after christmas" sale. That did'nt work :oops: Well know its back out and it comes w/ figures for $150. It looks like fun, but I can't get over how funny looking it is. Short wheel base and stubby gun. Anyway, the ones that bought it or seen in perform ...

Could anyone please post some pics of this Abrams. I've just seen in it the flyer and that did'nt show much. I saw the Stuart yesterday and still not to crazy about it. It was at SAMs w/ 3 figures and going for $150

Here are the ones I really would like to get, but there a few thousand

what did you do to get your figure inside the tank? My hatch depth is only 1/2" deep

I did'nt want to throw this in w/ the R/C panzer/m113 thread and it get lose. But since I got the RC panzer and how fun it is. Are there any other good R/C tanks to buy? Like the 1:6 Staurt, or better. Also do they come constructed or so you have to build them. Which is not my strong point. And how ...

Too bad you had those serious defects with your Panzer. Hopefully the others in the batch you got it from aren't that way as well. That is a cool scheme, however! I'm rather surprised to see that there is already an S2 version of the RC Panzer out there. If you get one that works, it is well worth ...

I agree w/ most of you guys, for $50 its fun, and i missed the original non-R/C version. So finding this was a good deal. But here is a HEADS UP. I bought it this evening, get it home and look what is waiting for me when I get it out of the box. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v469/corvette01/DSC0...

Cheer up, new stuff is gradually making its way out to the midwest. I'll be traveling down to St. Louis MO. tonight, I'll check a couple WM's on the way. What side of town did you check? I have to deliver some steel in the morning down on 59th St. I'll be checking the east side WM's. I'm tired of s...

With all the talk of new stuff showing up at WM, I figured to recon a few stores and try to cash in. Well I went to 3 WM and all they had was the 190 :x Each store had 4-6 of them. :roll: Nothing else. No figures, armour or anything. I own a 190 and like it, but come on its like a bad penny here in ...

I know its not 1:18, but it a nice overview of the 104, especially when it was used in German, and nicknamed the "Widowmaker" and a rock group even made a few songs over it

Correct me if I'm wrong, the Air Force version is S1 and is a "C" model, the German is a S2 version and a "G" model, and the Camo a S3 "C" model? Whats the difference between the G and C. and what unit is the German representing. Is it ours while stationed in Germany? I noticed the MARINES on the re...

I sorry, I did'nt mean the end of 1:18, just the end of newer stuff. I might have missed something down the line, but why is'nt 18th scale popular. I feel its not to big, ie like 1/6th, and its not small, to where you won't see any details. These items from 21st, and BBi is the only thing I collecte...

I was showing the wife last night that they finally did a Zero. She thought it was cool, but then mentioned that it seems they are'nt producing alot of new stuff this year. If you thank about it, a last year or so, they came out w/ the P-40, P-47, FW-109, FW-190, spitfire, and soon the Avenger. So a...

Yes it is, good call. The Red Baron is at the other end and the P-51 is a MegaBlocks kit
