Algo Enterprises now owns all the 21st molds and 2 1:32 planes up for preorder.
Wow
![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
I'm with you on this. I'm hoping skyworks efforts are for the molds to do the A-10 in plastic.Birddog wrote:This is encouraging news. Maybe this means that All-Go is still in the picture with Skyworks on the 1/18 scale A-10 project. With the 1/32 scale news, it means All-Go now has a factory to go to for producing models.
Announced, pictured, never made... I think that sort of fits the bill.aferguson wrote:what fiasco was there with the king tiger?

You only got that price because of Walmart. Most every other dealer selling those planes was sitting around $30 at least. A plastic kit of any of those planes sells for more than $20, PLUS you have to do all the work. We simply weren't paying realistic prices for any of 21C's 1/32 offerings.Airacobra wrote:
$40 for a 1/32nd scale plane? Wow, I know times have changed but that is over twice what they used to charge.

Besides, we know what Walmart pricing helped do to 21C.
Gasoline, taxes, milk, bread, GI joes, etc. have all gone up in price, while our salaries have gone down. Hotwheels remarkably have stayed the same ... not sure how that works, but the nephews are thankful.Airacobra wrote:

I can only imagine what they are going to charge for any 1/18 repaints they have planned. I feel very fortunate that I was around when the 1/18 planes were first released and I was able to build a very respectable air force. This is still good news for those with pockets deep enough to continue in this hobby. I hope AllGo finally gets going. I may not be able to purchase every release like I did in the past, but if the right plane gets released it will be tempting.
