Small Scale Military Headquarters

Think of it like daytrading; it is all supply, demand and timing. :wink: I have done well with XD trading on the MD exchange. The only loss I've incurred is buying some 1/32 Sherman dozer kits that later fell in price from $7.95 a share to $5.95 a share. I am sure the market will rebound and I can m...

I have been opening the occasional stashed item every week or so to keep me happy. Each time I do I feel like I rediscover XD again. Thank God for all those old sales! Thankfully MD will keep me in extras for some time to come!

Can vouch for pcsguy; buy with confidence.

I wonder what their methodology is for pricing. Prices on Migs and 1/32 items seem to fluctuate both up and down by the day, if not the hour. And there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to it as it happens on items that have not gone out of stock. I can see the SS Figure sets as they sell out ...

My FJ figures are tucked away in some box. If you've got 'em, flaunt 'em aferg.

Yes. The Hellcat. The anti-tank, opened-turret US vehicle. My mistake on the designation model. Didn't the M-41 Walker Bulldog come carded, as well? I think there may have been another vehicle, too. All of them were a different color shade from the original vehicles at TRU. Yes, the Hellcat and Wal...

To echo Tman, the Admiral figure is absolutely horrendous. Being a figure guy you will probably want to cry. Jason has mentioned that they hated doing the figure and would rather have bought and included 21C figures instead! Don't let this turn you off though, the AT 262 is a beauty, especially the ...

This is truly a sign that 21C is dead. I am disappointed MD has created their own "Private Reserve".

I plan on using the BBI Sherman commander. Nothing says "I had hot wings..." like his expression!

With the exception of MD this hobby is now dead to me.

1) P-51 Cadillac of the skies. 'Nough said.
2) Panther. Ditto comments above.
3) Garand. Best rifle on the battlefield.

My manclave is filling up quickly with MD boxes. I don't know if I want it to stop or not. I just feel like this is the last chance at XD that isn't coming off ebay for big bucks.

What if those damned Mig-15s are worth $300 some day?

Now that a trip to WM brings no XD I remember just how much I hate the darn place!

All I am in the market for is one of the PH P-40s. Beyond that I am good.

FOV isn't what they used to be but pick up a PZ IV D, Challenger, T-34 or Pershing and tell me 21C makes better armor. I double dog dare you!

Your local target should have some modern FOV figures that come with a .50 cal. For $5.19 you can get what you need plus a figure too!

Thanks Buckyroo. My homepage is set to MD so I forget other companies sell 21C. Of course Mustangs shouldn't really cost more than $22 these days...

God, don't stop! Of course the $100 each week sure hits the 'ol budget. Oh well, for $5.95 hummers and $15 Pattons you can't go wrong.

I dropped my wife off at the airport so took the long drive up to my favorite hobby shop about 40 miles north of me called American Eagle. They always have great stuff and today did not disappoint. They had a pre-built 1/48 F-16 and 1/72 SU-34 that were put out by a nameless company; the box said "m...

Why would I sell my collection? It gives me as much joy and looks just as good now as before 21C gave up the ghost. I may sell off some of my doubles to new members to fund new buys though...

Wow. I will miss 21C. And I will still buy from BCA. And I don't think they do anything wrong or have caused any manufacturers demise.

Where do you guys get this crap?

Consider this 1/32 guy cheesed.

Plus, I can't build models worth a crap. Begin whine about lack of cheap 1/32 models now...

I have the 1/32 Apache sold as a kit under the Testors brand. It's not bad. Exposed screws and no crew, but there's not much else available in 1/32. You can still find these at Michael's craft stores. Ditto, this is where I bought mine. With some paint, decals and weathering it doesn't look too bad...

I certainly miss it. MD has been a blast but with the exception of Target there is nothing to be had. And Target has nothing but the same darn stuff.

I am still buying from MD. Somehow I can't stay away. Plus, they just added 1/18 Dragon figures. And we all know how foolish it is to pay shipping on just a few figures. You have to add a few planes and tanks...
