Re: Looking for 1/18 Silver P-51 Old Crow

Pizzaguy, I assume you are looking for the 21C version of the Old Crow, not the Elite Force / bbi version? If so, I have one of the 21C versions that I am looking to sell. It has been displayed and i don't believe I have the box for it, but it is in excellent shape. I am unloading most of my WWII ai...

Hey Steve- Keep up the great work, and please continue posting updates on your Tomcat. Your work is motivating me to finish the D model conversion that I have been working on here and there over the last few years. Been busy the last couple of years (new house, new job), but I'm looking for things t...

Re: merit Announcment

WOW! An AV-8B Harrier.......finally something to come out of hibernation for! Way to go Merit / JSI. Hopefully the final approval for this project is just around the corner. I honestly never thought the Harrier would ever see the light of day in 1/18 scale, but it makes perfect sense due to its smal...

Re: Rebirth of the F14 Metal Landing Gear

I am in for a set, for sure. Would you consider offering the kit version with metal struts and resin drag links etc.? I agree, only one of the small parts will add any strength to the gear, and that is the L-shaped side brace that BD-One and Folkwulfe pointed out. The drag links, tie-downs, retract ...

Re: New Project!

You should've left "The Flying, Whistling, Sh@t can" the way it was. Put a 50 cal sniper rifle and a M240 in it and you could've had a Hitron Helo (probably too small). Or make a flight deck dio with it and put a bunch of guys in beach chairs catching a tan, and you'd have a typical AVDET. I get to...

Re: F-14 GE F110 & F18 F404 Exhaust Nozzel

Nathan,

I received my F/A-18 exhaust nozzles today and I am super pleased. As Mike stated, they are an unbelievable improvement over the factory parts. Great job!!!!!!!

Let me know when you get those closed F-14D nozzles done..... I will be first in line for 2 sets.

Thanks again!

Re: Your opinion!! F-14 GE F110 Exhaust Nozzel

Pizzguy, Those nozzles look great! I'm sure many folks here will be wanting a set of those since Skyworks has taken a dump. Any chance you may consider molding a set of F110 nozzles in the closed position? I have the Skyworks open nozzles, but you usually see the D model Tomcats cruising sans afterb...

Re: SCAM ALERT

I contacted Luiz about this situation and have yet to receive a response. I have had good dealings with him, but they certainly were by no means smooth. He pulled the same broken item crap with me, claiming that the color paint on the aircraft didn't match in places. As we all know, some of theses p...

Re: SCAM ALERT

I just laid out the guidelines of how the deal was going to be done. Period. He wanted me to cover Priority shipping to Brazil, I said no. Then he wanted me to lower the price of the Hornet. I told him no again. I then grew tired of Luiz badgering me on the price, so I told him the deal was off. In ...

Re: SCAM ALERT

Sarge, I have dealt with Luiz (Mecanico23) a couple of times. once when he bought a Marauders F-18 from me, and once when he needed one of the weapons pylons from an F-18 color matched and weathered. The deal with him purchasing the Hornet went perfectly, no problems at all. When I sent his pylons b...

WTB>>>>> Wrecked/Damaged JSI F-14 for parts

Let me know if you have an F-14 to part out or if you have a damaged one you would like to unload. I'm looking for a parts donor for a project I am working on. I have a few planes I could trade, or there is always good 'ol cash.

Thanks!

That combined with the promo code above would make for a great deal on these planes. PM me if interested........I'm ready to buy...

Re: Picking up the Gauntlet

What ever you do Matt, dont copy the F-14 exhausts.....they are less than impressive. You should design your own. I am confident they would be a far better replica than the SW parts ever could be. My SW exhausts were so bad, I ended up making my own. :(

bbi F-16 Exhaust Nozzle Removal?

Has anyone removed the exhaust nozzle from the bbi F-16? I am toying with modifying my F-16, but I cant figure out how to remove the nozzle without destroying something. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
