Re: U.S. anti aircraft tank

Very nice work on the AA Tank. I also have that 1/16 M-35 RC Truck. I have been doing research on it being used as a gun truck in Vietnam. The .50 quad was used with a trailer, towed and mounted in the truck bed. I love how you made these guns and truck together! Great job. I am putting together a V...

Re: Long Tom in 1:18 scale

Crazy Kraut, Could you possibly do a review of this Howitzer? That would be pretty useful to anyone contemplating buying one. Thanks in advance! I wish someone would produce a 2 1/2 ton or larger truck to tow this beast! We need 2 1/2 to 5 ton trucks in all time periods that used them in. Even a Hig...

Re: 1/18 Scale M-4A3E8 The Easy 8

I would not be too picky about the tracks, though it is good to know what was early and later. I am still interested no matter which tracks are made for this. I would use one Late war and for Korea. I hope that this kit happens, as I said before, I want one. I just need to find and buy a donor Sherm...

Re: good news from the front

I remember back in the 1960's the ABC TV Series Combat! And the Rat Patrol used US Half tracks painted up like German Half tracks. One of them had a turret like this grafted onto a flat sheet over the top of the rear section of the rear hull. It so reminds me of this, it isn't funny! Thanks for post...

Re: 1/18 FOV aircraft...should we get our hopes up...?

I seem to remember that they were going to start out slow. Well, that they have done and are still doing. I hope that they will resume where the past ownership left off in regards to 1/18. I hope to live long enough to see it.

Dragon53, Thanks for sharing this info! This is a pretty cool "old" Bird. I hope that it comes my way so that I can take my Grandson Anthony to go see it. I am kind of surprised that there weren't more of them that survived.

Re: Calling for hints/tips on detailing a BBI 1/18 AH-64 Lon

Thank you, my friend. I figured that this might be something that you could do pretty easily, considering that you have made the actual sensors as part of the "crab eyes".

I sent a request for decals for an AH-64 Apache set of decals and a set for an MH-60 Blackhawk as well. I can't wait to hear back from them.
Thanks again A-10LOADER, as I had no idea what I was going to do for decals for both of these Birds!
