Most of the cool stuff they had on the old site is no longer there, but they do have the BBI 109 there and a couple of 1:32 FW-190D's.

I went ahead and ordered the 1:32 Mickaelski 190D. It is a lot less than what they are going for at auction and it's the only 190 I'm missing.

Crossing my fingers. I did pay for it through Paypal so I can get my money back if it goes sour.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks for the heads up (I think) Stuka.

Got a FedEx tracking number from Toysnswords for my FW-190, so it looks like this site is back in action and legit.

Dauntless · Post by **Dauntless** » Thu Apr 22, 2010 5:59 pm

Received my 32X Mickaelski FW-190D today. Took about ten days.

These are sold out everywhere else so if you're missing it and the "Red 3" they have them at 24.99 plus shipping.

That completes my 190D collection. now if I could just get a couple of P-47 Thunderbolts.

Anyone looking for the 1:18 BBI 109 and the Catmouth Hellcat they have them for $49 which isn't too shabby.

Agreed - I just ordered the BBI 109 - I really like the Afrika paint and have been wanting one of these for a while...

Thanks for the Heads Up.

No problemo.

That's a good deal on the 21C XD Panther too at $39.

Too bad the BBI Pavehawk isn't discounted much, nor the 21C XD planes.

I ordered the 109 on April 2. This is around the time it is sold out so I do not think whoever ordered now will receive this. If you try to add to cart it says no in your cart on the in stock column. I was never billed or receved shipping info as thay are gone from stock. I ordered the Panther and last week received shipping info and due to deliver tomorrow by Fedex.
Do not mean to burst any bubbles on the 109 but this has been gone from stock for a while.

So they're still kinda up to their old shenanigans.

I think I may have gotten the last BBI 109 (see earlier posts). The guy actually called me at home about 3 days after I got it (finally got some sign of life from them).
Anyway, it took about 3 weeks but got it in the end.

***POP***

That was my bubble bursting...

............. forget about calling them.

* They leave you little room for error in leaving a message for call back as they have it too brief.

......... it's pot luck if they do call you back or return an e-mail reply. They did however call me back once but that was a couple a yrs. ago and I wasn't home to answer. I was never able to reach anybody there since.

->>>----> That's fantastic news to learn that a few a you guys were able to break through though.

........ Persistence pays off I guess.

My Paypal payment was just refunded.

guess I still need the BBI 109

I know this is a bit of a gravedig, but I bought a 21c panther from them ... it arrived quickly, was well packaged, and was itself in great condition.

Today it graced the backyard along with my JSI panther.

Sadly, the handle on the hatch for my JSI panther broke ... I tried using a 1/32 drill bit to carefully "pin" the handle back on the hatch, but when drilling through the old handle parts in the hatch they just completely dropped out and the handle itself is too small for the next size up.

Anyhow, a solid experience with this company.

>>> Glad to know you had a (+) experience but on the other hand , why didn't you just simply glue the handle back on ?

I wasn't sure that superglue alone would keep it in place if I wanted to open the top hatch again.

I probably should put some oil on the plastic pin the hatch slides up and down on, so that it will work better in the future.

it looks like toysnswords has a good deal on the F-14.

With most automated postage mailing systems you can generate a label and get a tracking number, doesn't mean the package ever actually got submitted to the post office. In fact, as long as it doesn't, the label can be voided and the postage refunded.
That makes some sense ... so is it possible then they are generating the label while somebody else is going to the stock room to pull the items and later find out that they couldn't find the item?

It could happen that way. I personally don't generate labels on my orders until they are sitting on the table packed and ready, but hard to tell how others operate.
