Small Scale Military Headquarters

Between the 1st post and the next 2, seems like 2 entirely different persons

Dauntless, sorry if I sounded harsh on the exclusive idea but was just my frustration at Halo boiling over. I'm not totally against exclusives as they part of collecting but just not too ultra exclusive like in very small numbers or available to certain vendors that is difficult for international cu...

I don't see any new mib BBI F-4s on ebay which I think would happen if some enterprising guy found these, did someone find a small hidden stash of F-4s at a TRU warehouse?

Seems rather unbelievably fantastic if it were true

Its always a sweet rush when you get your holy grail/s in hand after a long long hunt Congrats Panzer M 8) I just scored a holy grail myself last month, a Corgi Doolittle B-25 that didnt quite cost me a kidney. I'm still feeling the warm fuzzy afterglow of a lucky ebay BIN hunt :lol: you could try ...

A great start to 2012

A very belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone! Without this board and all the fantastic dudes here, my life will be that much duller but my wife will be much happier :lol: I wish for everyone here in 2012 to have good health, good wealth and all our scale collectables dreams come tru...

My wife says too many...


I disagree

That has to be the shoo-in for 1/18 ebay buy of the year 2011 award

Whats the value of this lot say in yesteryears walmart clearance price?

Dauntless, doing exclusives will def create a buzz and do a small/medium company a lot of good but for me I absolutely detest exclusives. Those that have general release and exclusive release together which have a little something different thats still ok, not those that is pure exclusive. It limits...

The price of HM 1/72 now is like what HM 1/48 was at the beginning of their armor range, even Dragon prices has risen substantially, which really hurts the wallet but par for all diecast companies HM has the more varied subjects but Dragon has the usual suspects but nicer end product, for me I buy a...

Fantastic looking model :D I like the wing idea, but I still think they could have made the wings fold themselves without needing the seperate pieces. It was done successfully (in my opinion) on their F9F Panther tooling. Still I like what I see and I'm debating whether to get Kepford's Corsair or ...

Wow thats a lot of pounds for this set

Does it comes originally packaged like this as a duo or just so happen the seller paired both of your holy grails?


Thanks Snake Corgi's B-25 mold is worth its weight in gold

Where is Indiana Jones when we need him, to hunt down all the KT, A-10 & F-4 prototypes This whole deal does not compute on so many levels its hard to comprehend :? In this episode of Mythbusters... Confirmed / Plausible / Busted 10 KT Prototypes were made, sent to individuals for evaluation The exi...

Have you tried contacting Aviator Nut? I think he may have some

Flyboy, if you have the chance, would like to see you take some outdoor pics of your fantastic buildings. I'm just imagining how good they would look with the sun shining down and casting some shadows or even on a moody overcast day would be great

I think taking legal action is not quite a straight forward option, you most likely need good lawyers, funds to follow thru the case, cross ocean battle, good hardy evidence and uncertainty of how things will develop in China itself once the case is started (case might drag into years, appeal, count...

Picture of the Corsair's interchangeable wings is up on Hobby Master Collector,

Neat!

Sounds like they've managed to get the Blackhawk done and getting it shipped out before the whole of China shuts down for Chinese New Year from the 3rd week of January 2012

Fear of friendly fire sounds reasonable for ETO, probably explain why PTO marines were in camo because the japanese didnt have them. For the allies, so far only found some pics of camo for pathfinders and smocks for Brit paras. Still, it is impressive that the germans, under pressure on all fronts i...

I thought I've seen this recently on China Taobao auction site but my mistake not 1/16, but just a SteelGolem 1/35 steel kit Its the same kit as this on ebay now with lotsa pics http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-35-ALL-PARTS-PE-German-88mm-Gun-Flak-Model-Kit-/250688791487?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a5e...

Nice link Flyboy will be very useful for reference

Just wonder why the allies didnt catch on to using camo in WW2 besides the pacific marines? Even till Vietnam, more then 2 decades after WW2, US troops were still in non camo uniforms, not counting SF, Seals and Lrrps

Must resist getting into another scale... but a KT would sure be nice and close enough to 1/18.... no I must resist..... urgh

Welcome aboard CanberraPaul :D Totally understand you as I'm in a similar situation as you: non existent 1/18 local retail, long distance and expensive shipping from US/EU and ebay sellers that do not ship intl limiting our sources even more. I get jealous or teary eyed seeing all the free shipping ...

Flyboy, can you build an entire town and all of us will come over with our xd to play? :lol: Its great that it fetched close to what you wanted for it at $330, the buyer has gotten a piece of art :D Something about your work that had me looking up the dictionary today, Craftsman - A man who practise...
