Don't know where to post a question regarding Corgi planes

I found a few corgi jets in an old box of stuff I've had for years and decided I really like them and want to start a collection of military air and ground viehcles. Anyone know where I can find a list of Corgi products? I've checked around the net and haven't had much luck. I've also gone to www.co...

so the figures don't have the propper rank with their name like PVe bar gunner with sgt stripes, but are there rank variations with the same figures? I.E bar gunner can have cpl, sgt, or pve chevrons?

inconsistancies or variations to the latest batch of figures

Has anyone found any inconsistancies, or variations to the latest 18 new figures from 21st century toys? I found that my Bar Gunner - Pvt. Harry "Sammy" Smith has Sgt chevrons on his left and right posible arms, while both the arms with no articulation are Pve. I'm up here in Canada and don't have o...

From the Reviews I have read and hearing people talk about them sometimes on here, the Dragon 1:18 figures are static figures in poses with very limitted articulation. They are good for diorama building, and are more like plastic statues.

You guys haven't really mentioned drawbacks with BBI, but you all have the same problems as me with XD, so why is a product that falls apart, and commonly has "Monday" figures your favorite? More details is great, but to me If the product isn't doing what it's suppose to then it is no good. Details ...

Thanks for the tip wit hthe pegs. Plasty stuff sounds like a solution for one of my XD problems.

Frustrated XD Collector

I loved the first WWII XD figs and the airborne set that came afterwards, but since then it's like the quality has dropped, or I've been very unlucky and have been getting the defective ones. I have problems from figs being made of plastic that feels very soft almost rubbery that when you move joint...

I remember they were suppose to be released in spring of 2006 and they had A"a bridge too far," toys on the way, but instead we got those OMG figs that weren't too great. I kinda feel now that 21st is becoming like Hasbro. I sure hope they don't repeat mistakes like having a D-day shoot on an OMG pe...

Why don't you guys use BBI guys parts, or is it impossible to mish-mash BBI and XD parts? Most of the BBI heads modern/WWII fit great on XD bodies. Sometimes there is a little modification needed. But the BBI heads really give the XD more realism... Not to knock the XD headsculpts - but it's nice t...

The reason why I like Foxholetoys is because of the exceptional customer service. He took a lot of time aside to email me and skype me when I had questions about different 1:18 products.

Re: figs

Uh-oh, Ski... :D ...now you know how it starts... :P Since 21st had the removable tank helmet from the S2 COED I'm surprised we didn't see it with BOB II. Maybe they have a new US tank crewman in the works...which I actually wouldn't mind. My shermans also have a cloned crew.. :? What's COED? Are y...

no the most annoying thing for me is that they're not available here in Canada, and I've only seen U.S troops and no Brits or Russians.

I have checked out the BBI figs and they have tons of accessories. They look real cool and I am interested in all their time periods of 1:18 figs. The I've always wanted knights and Roman troops. How's the overall quality of BBI? Are there any figures, or waves I should just not consider buying beca...

Yep I've been checking out badcat, but I think I'll get a better deal with smalljoes, or foxholetoys. For those who have bought from badcat, why did you choose them over the two other stores I've mentioned? Is there something in their shipping, or something I am not seeing? I have gone to the states...

It's not enough to get one of each. I have to buy 2 of each figure who has 2 different head sculps so I have enough bodies to display all the different faces.

4 series in BOB? Is the third and fourth one where the figures started having names like cowboy and wolf?
I thought there was only BOB1 and 2 1 being nameless figs and 2 being the ones who were just released with nicknames and mor accessories.

Do I have this right: The variations to the BOBI carded figures are German infantry with closed longcoat with either snow helmit, or no snow helmit German infantry with open longcoat with snow helmit and no snow helmit German Tanker in a white winter uniform German Tanker with grey uniform?
