Knight your here too? COOL! So you changed your mind about getting the A-10? I still think its worth it man..its huge in person. But then again I like joescale stuff and theres more stuff coming in 2006...not to mention it only took 6 months to design and produce this thing..maybe less. Hopefully ne...

re

Well I basically made this assumption based on the notion that the THUD flew the most missions of the war, with the phantom trailing behind. Thats why i made it a phantom or thud type dig. I'd love an F-8, A-4, A-6, and A-7. To be honest I like the sader better than the phantom but for the reasons a...

Which Vietnam jet do you want more in 1/18 scale?

Okay boys, hands down the 2 most popular planes of vietnam are the F-105D Thunderchief and the F-4 Phantom II with its infinite variants. Here you have the workhorse, and the legend. If BBI or 21st were to do a vietnam 1/18 scale line of realistic aircraft, of these to which would you want to come o...

I agree its fun to speculate and if I were trying to think of the next modern I would guess A-10 as well. Remember guessing is not a statement. Its a wish. I have a big wish list. But my bigest wish is to step on to my drive way and see every era and every plane made in 1/18 lined up. I figured tha...

re

Mike,

Have any of the other jet companies aside northrop grumman, expressed interest in the combat command line?

And would BBI consider making a 1/32 scale line?

YES A phantom and crusader 1/18 would be DEFINITE buys for me! If BBI does something like an A-7 and A-6 I would be all over those as well. Same thing with the scooter...boggles my mind why 21st century never made a A-4...it's small...and would be cheaper to make then some of their other releases. ...

That is a VERY good price. Heck good enough for me to change some buyin plans and consider buying one! Even if it ISN;T the black one.

I do wonder though...is this sale temporary? and if the black one comes out in a few months, would it still be 56$?

I only asked about the accuracy issues since I everytime something 1/18 comes out, I know some who nit...
