This 88mm Flak gun might work w/ 1:18?

My wife got me this couple years before i started collecting the XD. It seems like the proper scale, what do you guys think? Its all metal and the detail is kinda good. If interested heres the link http://store.aetv.com/html/product/inde ... &subcatid=

In my first post here some of you wondered what the WWI planes were and whated close ups. If you go to there I added pic. of them

That does look pretty close to scale. Close enough anyway to be passable. Nice piece, just checked it out off your link. $85 isn't too bad for an all metal piece.
Now, I have to figure out the justification for ordering it

I'm always glad to help in supporting a "habit"
Justification is easy........You need it to it to protect the germans from the allies fighters

I own 2 of these 88s. The scale is 1/16. Some guys (like me) are OK with the scale difference. Some on the board won't go for anything but 1/18. Its all a matter of opinion but I think they are great pieces. You can locate them on ebay sometimes for as low as $50.

Very Nice! I have an old metal AA gun, but its a British variant. 1:16 or not, that gun looks very close, judging by the figures I have around my 32x cannon. I would love to see one of these made in 1:18 by 21st and it may just be a distinct possibility now that they're back on track.

Does the gun come with it's trailer wheels so you can hook it up to another vehicle?
