So am I the last one to still not have mine yet? I am trying to be patient, but I haven't had an update since the friendly call from UPS last Thursday. What I wanted to say when they were telling me everything that I already knew, "That's nice. But why are you talking to me instead of having it on a...

Or, how about this one:

Father = First to break the speed of sound.
Oil = Texan Chuck Yeager
Jump and Pull = Well known tale of Yeager having to use a broom stick handle to open the door if he had to bail out.

Wooohoooooooooo, Winner!!!! Bell X-1!!!

Alright, let me take you on a journey of what happened in my mind in pursuit of a possibility here.... Father = First of its kind. Oil = took me to Texas Jump and Pull = something without an ejection seat, where the pilot had to bail out the old fashioned way. The answer: P-80A Shooting Star (I thin...

Jason: I have the F-86, CL-13, and ME-262. I really love your packaging concepts of putting the plane into the smallest box possible and not using window boxes. I think it serves its purpose well of being able to get the product to the consumer in good shape and conveniently allowing for long term s...

I am sooooooo stoked for the first time in 20 years to be looking forward to buying Real American Heroes!! I was awful close to reviving my collection just before the 3 3/4 went DTC...what was it Valor vs Venom...but then Sigma6 caught my enthusiasm just like the original 3 3/4 line did, so I passed...

My question is if mis-delivered packages are still free...or if they will start charging for them?!! :evil: (Yes, I am still smarting over my Tender Terror, which was a three party mess up, yes I screwed that pooch too! But me and 21st weren't the one's who ignored an address change request!!) In al...

That does look sweet! Real nose art for a change!! Who woulda thunk that would ever happen! 8) I want to let everyone know that the fine folks at 21st are doing their best S&R, ever! I should have good news, and relief, in a couple days. Just please let me know if any of these show up on E-Bay in a ...

Well, my Tender Terror was delivered today...... But not to me........ :twisted: :evil: And the sad thing is, I don't even have a clue as to where it could have gone. I am very upset, and I hate how UPS will pretty much do whatever the hell they want. They should have taken the delivery exception se...

So, is the Top Ace on this board? And what was the extra special parts he won?? It's been so long, that I can't even remember what it was we had to do to get these things! :?

Also, was anyone else on here a sweepstakes winner for the replica panels?

TKO: Since I know 21st would be the most likely to use their Mustang for this idea, what would be the prospects of some air racer paint schemes? I would beat down a door for a Miss America, and would simply die for Georgia Mae (I know that's one I pulled out of nowhere, since I couldn't even begin t...

Jason,

Several months ago, you hinted that two new planes were coming, one for mass market and one special for a patron/charity/foundation? Is that still true? (Especially the special!) And so, anything you would like to share?

Thank you P51! I can now lurk in peace!! I collect mainly the 1:18 scale planes, like anything with wings! I also selectively take on normally one of each 1:32 scale plane series, with an occaisional re-paint if it is really cool! I might be doing more of the 1:32 in the future, but try not to get a...

I am one of those purgatory lurkers (until today) who also is an Ace!! I finally tracked down Black 1 to complete my FW-190 series two days before this promo started!! So I had to start all over!! I got one of the replica panels about a year ago, and have finally started to believe I might see this ...
