Depends what they locked away in their storeroom! 8)

I would like to see some more 1/18 figs for $1 each!!!


I emailed 21stC customer service and asked:

"Will you have anymore 1/18 scale figures for sale??"

21stC response:

"We'll have more figures, just depends
on what the boss finds in the warehouse and wants to put on."

Wahoo!

I talked to them on the phone today and they told me they more than likely will. Pretty much the same thing Razor said. 8)

Let's cross our fingers that a different set of these $1 figs will be available.

I have seen the "store-room" There is basically 3 major points of interest. There is the one of everything produced museum, then there is the "prototype of the month" display (did I mention I have see the old infamous A-10 prototype in person?) :wink:
Then there is the surplus!!!!! The later is what is driving these "on-line clearance sales" The Surplus is literally a 1:32, 1:18, and 1:6 scale army navy surplus! It's loads of fun!!!! 21st let me pick through it once on one of my visits! I got a replacement stuka canopy for my winter stuka, extra bombs and hardpoints for the P-47t-bolt bubble tops, more german tail stickers, and few other odd ends. I also remember seeing the Zero's and Macchis in 1/32nd protoype form months before release... My vists are rare but always a real treat!

Sounds like our version of Willy Wonka's Chocolate factory :wink:

Can't wait to see what else comes up on the surplus sale website!

Also, because I know the questions will pour in on the A-10....

Yes it is a dang cool plane in 1:18 scale.

Yes it is really much larger in person when you see it!

Yes it is much larger than the Lightning, Avenger or anything else I have ever seen in 1:18

Yes a weapons assortment was present on those huge wings

Yes it very much resembled a large bird of prey

Yes I did encourage 21st to still build it

Yes I did offer to purchase the protoype for my own selfish desires.

No they did not sell it to me

No I didn't press the issue, I wanted to be invited back again someday!

Yes I will continue to make offers to purchase the prototype from 21st upon each visit

No we will not see this airplane in 2006

I have NO CLUE if we will see it in 2007 yet.

Yes 21st is aware of the hunger strike for the A-10.

T-man! you hit the NAIL ON THE HEAD!!! :lol:

It is exactly like that! And I kinda have to laugh because I have often felt like Charlie... except there were no umpa lumpas, and at the end of the tours the CEO has yet to offer the keys of his kingdom to me personally! :?

I just really like everyone there at 21st. They work so hard and they have so mch to do to keep us fans deep in military toys! I am hoping to get back there sometime this fall! I think the 07 secret stuff could be hanging around and it would be a great time to crash the party! :)

Bombs? Did you say bombs? When are we going to see those guys? I can never have enough bombs for all my planes.

I wonder if those replacement tracks and things for teh Stuart and Abrams are complete track sets, or if they're just a single link or what... I'm interested in a number of complete sets of tracks for one or the other tank but if that's per-link pricing... well holy $#!% that's pricey.

Someone post a link to those tracks, I can’t seem to find them. All I see are the Nam guys and 1/6th figures.
