Andrew, please spill the beans. Is there an A-10 Warthog in our future? I sure hope so.

Ummmm, sad with an exclamation point? Maybe its a spad, like an A-1 Skyraider? Perhaps a sad looking airplane or armor)?

Ok THats a long time to wait it's nearly midnight here so i'm going to bed now but will be watching out until Friday night/sat morn

"It's sad"...my guess is that Mike will be telling us that bbi is folding it's tent on 1:18 scale. I stopped at a TRU in Fairlawn and the only bbi on it's shelves were 2 soldiers from their first release, 2 tanks and an 'Old Crow'...NOTHING else!! Nor any tags.
At Target, bbi was scarce there too. I hope not...but I can't think of anything "sad" that they'd release

I wonder if there is any significance to the fact that Mike is waiting until Friday the Thirteenth to tell us what the new product is? Seems he may be tempting fate. Of course he can always just whisper it to me that way there is no chance of bad luck occuring.

I figure it is the hellcat we got a glimpse of awhile back. But I cant figure out how "it's sad". then again, I cant figure out how a warthog is sad either and I hope it is that as well!

Jay · Post by **Jay** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 5:35 pm

Same here. My first hunch is a hellcat, but I cant figure in the "It's sad" part..........

Sabrefan · Post by **Sabrefan** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 5:36 pm

If you look at a Hellcat from the front, its cowl does sort of make a sad face. I know I am reaching here, but work with me.

Birddog · Post by **Birddog** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 5:40 pm

Maybe it refers to the Hellcat like:

"It's sad" that this aircraft has been overlooked among World War II Fighter aircraft for the 1/18 scale line.....

pierce · Post by **pierce** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 5:48 pm

Perhaps the sad refers to the common paint sceme of Blue on the hellcat

tankduel · Post by **tankduel** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 7:22 pm

Maybe sad is an acronym for 'search and destroy'....indicative of a Warthog.

Nice tankduel

Is there a prize to the first one who guesses what "SAD" is?

grunt1 · Post by **grunt1** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 7:48 pm

I'm with Sabrefan and that looking at whatever it is directly from the front might make a "sad" face.

For example:

Ok what are we looking at??????????

Moth · Post by **Moth** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 8:18 pm

I have a sad feeling, sad is that 1/18 BBI is kaput

Ok what was Mikes general disposition in his communications?

digger · Post by **digger** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 8:28 pm

It is not new armor, it is AC...but Friday is a long way from Tuesday..."watch this space" should maybe be changed to to "tune in Friday." A sticky with no substance is near pointless in the meantime...
