I am a big fan of both the B and the Komet. They certainly have my support.

32x flatbed and jeep

Have any of you guys bought the 32x scale flatbed and jeep that have been advertised on the molitary channel? It is off of militaryflatbed.com. Just wanted to know what you guys thought if you had one. Is it worth buying?

I really think we will see a Komet from Pegasus before the end of the year--Call it a gut feeling.

Well, before I drop the axe, I am going to wait and see what the final word is. Some airplane vendors have MSRPs (or list prices) that seem sky high. So, I am hoping this is a similar situation. 60 to 70 is high, but I can deal. A c-note will require more contemplation before a purchase.

I am a big fan of collecting 1:1 militaria. I am really into AAF patches and US medal groups. But, I have collect planes for a long while. I built 1:48 as a kid. I started to get into RC as a teen. But, I am really digging the 32x and XD. I will probably keep buying it as long as they make it.

I like the rudder detail real well. It reminds me of 1930s Air Corps liveries. The only thing that really bugs me is the spinner. So, I hung it from the ceiling to look like it is looping :P

The only thing that isn't there for me is selection. The cost is about the same, and the detail is on par. Plus, you have more room to buy more of it. Though, I am firmly entrenched in XD with the size of my personal airforce. But, if Corgi were to turn out enough airframes, I might convert wholehea...

Corgi has caught me

Well, I bought a 32x Hurricane from Corgi for my classroom airforce because I thought 21st would never come out with one. The price was steep in my opinion (50 bucks), but I really like RAF aircraft. I have to say that I am taken. I think if Corgi had the variety of airframes available in 32nd that ...

I do XD, but I used to hang the 1/48 scale airplanes I would build from my classroom ceiling. Then, 32x had more and more airframes, and my time to build models decreases steadily. I can't have competing scales. So, I switched over to 100% 32x for the classroom ceiling. As far as ground goes, I have...
