Dear Fellow Members, It has been awhile since I have posted anything on this board. This is for good cause. We have been preparing for a trip to China and the American International Toy Fair in New York. I leave for China on Tuesday at the crack of dawn. I will be in China until the work is complete...

I recently heard a similar comment from a cashier at, of all places, Best Buy--some girl who couldn't have been over 25 lamenting that these days, if it doesn't do 95% of the playing for them, kids don't want it. What ever happened to the days when kids like me would take over whole rooms in the ho...

1:32 Yes as several of you know, it is a 1:32 scale Corsair. This model has a lot of work yet to be done. First the cowling is wrong and will be modified. We might try to give the purchaser a choice between open cowling flaps or closed. This model has both on it, for my reference during mods. Pictur...

1:32 Sorry about the two post. They are not hints. Here is your first hint of the 1:32 scale aircraft. I will begin the post for the 1:18 in a couple of weeks. Once again this aircraft is 1:32 scale. http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l79/jasonofadmiraltoys/123.jpg Regards, Jason Post script Yes, it ...

I do not want anyone to get there hopes up. As I stated in the Direct from the Source forum, the decision to go into production with the 1:32 scale line has not been finalized. We are just taking the models to toy fair to judge interest. If we can pick up a couple of good contracts on the models, th...

1:72 Dear 1:72 Collectors, I am sorry that we have been very secretive about the 1:72 line. This is for good reason. We have been trying something new with production in the 1:72 market and it appears that it is actually going to work. In a couple of weeks, I will tell you more about our new offerin...

1:32/1:18 Ladies and Gentlemen, The new guessing game of a 1:32 scale aircraft will begin in a week or two. The nice thing is that you will soon be guessing on a 1:18 aircraft as well. The hints on the 1:18 aircraft will be written not photographic. I think it will be much harder to guess. Unlike th...

I hope all of you had a wonderful New Years celebration. Our celebration was nice. All is well in Dallas; though I have made my return to Houston. Tomorrow all will be back on the clock, with the exception of LaDonna. She had a beautiful baby girl. She and the baby are doing well. The rest of us wil...

If you remember the comments about Smiley the unfortunate F-86 pilot, I laughed along with those as well. Though I still get a kick out of him/her! Rega...

For all those that saw my unedited post in the last 10 minutes. Sorry, you are not allowed to play the guessing game in the next couple of weeks. :lol: But I will warn all of you now. The next guessing game aircraft is in 1:32. So if you do not like 1:32, do not play. The Kate is 1:32. I am sorry bu...

Ok, well personally i'm getting a bit weary of the games, and double talk. We were certainly lead to believe that the plane we were guessing on (which turned out to be the Kate) was a 1/18 scale product. That turns out not to be the case (maybe, perhaps, possibly, who knows wtf is going on). Now we...

Hello my friends, First, let me congratulate the peoples that figured out the forum switch hint, nice detective work. TKO knew about the scale a couple of days ago.

Yes, there is more in store for you to view. Now the last hint, and TKO cannot guess on this one (because h...

Thank you all for the well wishes and happy B-days. It is much appreciated. Aferg is correct. I wish I was as smart as some of you have made me out to be. The hint dissections have been incredible. I wish some of those are what I intended as the hint. That would make me pretty darn intellectually ag...
