Small Scale Military Headquarters

Mike... 1-BBTS has pics of the 1:18 apache up and it was set to preorder but they already sold out. However the picture shows it with fuel tanks and sidewinders. Does this reissue have those or did they mistakingly show another product? 2-Will the Zero hit TRU? How about the Old crow P-51 and other ...

TKo its been a while. 1-Does 21st have any interest producing 1:18 versions of smaller, yet historically significant aircraft such as the A-4 Skyhawk, F-8 Crusader? I'm sure Roy realizes how important these 2 were and how they were smaller than the F-104 and arguably more popular/significant(wait is...

HEll yea I'd LOVE to see that thing for 54.99@walmart! Very happy it finally is coming out!

1/18 Airwolf. W/Jean Michael Vincent and his backseater. I keep thinking it would be awesome as a BBI toy. Man would it be cool!!!

I think its either the F-14 or F-100. With the success of 21st's F-104, and demand for vietnam birds that we tend to beg about, admiral toys knows we wants vietnam era stuff. And it doesn't seem that 21st or BBI would make an F-100. Not to mention what a GREAT follow up to the F-86!! F-14. This is s...

Mike, Since the apache, falcon and hornet are slated for repaints this year, Will TRU carry all 3? I imagine they should, it'd be GREAT to see them in brick and mortar stores, since nearly all of 21st products can be found at walmart(well pretty hard to find), and TRU and walmart are big rivals, and...

The sandies are awesome. I would definitely get 1!!!!!

BTW since it performed in a predominantly jet war as a CAS aircraft in vietnam, was it originally intended as a prop fighter or was it always a CAS plane?

Wow 70$?!!!!!!! And they HAD it at hungates? this my friend surprises me! I have seen it at the greenbriar one for the same price I believe but someone snatched it up. Man I wish you joined earlier~! I could have told you this too..... The corsair is 45$@TRU~!!! They had 2 left at the military highw...

tomcat dude we think alike, your tomcat is my fav plane and I too was hellbent on getting the F-104. HAve you tried the walmart@nimmo? I assume you have, since you said you tried multiple walmarts. But if you haven't, its near the courthouse in va beach and near holland and princess anne, i think. S...

Mike Happy new year! Please tell the BBI team I said thank you when you meet them this or next week, I am VERY pleased with the black F/A-18, one of the greatest presents I have ever recieved for x mas and a product I am so impressed with that I have decided to stay in the 1/18 world and buy MORE! I...

Mike, Since 2006 is a lil more than a day away, can you tell us what the next combat command airplanes are? I assume they will be out before spring, so I guess that means soon right? Also, any word on the next 1/18 jets BBI is producing? I just got the jolly rogers black F/A-18 and I LOVE IT! Makes ...

Yes boys I have broken into the 1/18 world, first earlier this week when I recieved my jolly roger BBI F/A-18 for Xmas(WOW this makes all the gijoe planes look SMALL!!...this scale RULES, yes my arms get heavy playing with this thing but WOW this makes me want a tomcat even more!!! 1/18 scale rules!...

More F-16 pics would be great too! and cobra!(if you guys have time)

Wow man! Seems awesome, especially for the price. I guess the rotors were the only thing really worrying me. I take it the canopy can still open on a hinge from the side right? And is that a custom green camo one or is that an actual release? The only one I saw in stores was the grey one. And the pi...

Oh definitely man thanks for the rundown! I love all military aircraft, and while I do like props I am mainly into modern-vietnam era stuff. I have seen the cobra at least twice and noone seemed to look at it, luckily for me. SO hopefully its still back home in va beach in the local walmarts. If not...

Good god those are the best liveries yet! I wonder if I can wait until then to buy it...hmm..

we might get stands? whoa where did you guys see these first? was this at a toyfair? And can they accomodate the copters and F-104?

awesome guys! So what do you think about the cobra, is it one of the best helicopters?

Also, tman thanks for posting pics of the falcon can you post more! Thats pretty cool man and thanks for the comparison!

P51, that is a great shot man very clear and I like the motion!

I think maybe its perhaps that the super hornet is a compromise fighter. The F/A-18C was a GREAT replacement for the A-7 and F-4 in the strike role, and did its job well for its size class. The super hornet had to replace both the A-6 Intruder and the F-14 Tomcat, and just had a little bit of both w...

Dear god I had no idea the thud had the most gun kills in nam!

The thud is awesome I hope we one day see a 1/18 thud. That and an F-4E in SE Asia air force camo.

So its a safe bet to say spring I suppose, that way noone gets their hopes too high up. I assume we will see it in febuary but just think spring for now just in case. tko, will the retooled S1-5 mustangs still be in the 40$ price range? How about the avenger? i saw a comparison with a luftwaffe bird...

Cool man!! Nice knowing about how you got into aviation as well.Thats awesome that you might shoot some pics! Are you going to put some 1/18 stuff on your site? I think we should all do a 1/18 gallery and submit pics for this forum. The old gp had an archive, and I think with the amount of 1/18 boys...

Hey understandable man! I grew up a navy brat and was based on an airbase where the runway was literally off of my frontyard, so I LOVE planes, and I got exposed to the F-14 at a very early age. The first thing I tried drawing at the age of 2 was an F-14. And after drawing all my life, and becoming ...

Hey guys, can you take the sparrow missles from the F-16 and mount them on the BBI F/A-18's wing pylons?? I have always wondered if you could, and I wondered why BBI did not make sparrow mounts for the fueselage where they are usually mounted. Hmmm. P-51 did you find your pics yet? And what do you t...

Tko, We know the majority of 21st products for airplanes consist of mainly prop warbirds, with few jets(F-104 and the upcoming sabre and MIG-15). Will the number of warbirds planned for next year still outnumber jets? Or will there be more jets to balance out the number of props? More jets is a GOOD...
