Does it really matter? :evil: They put it up and 2 years later it comes out. :twisted: By the time it hits the shelves it's who gives a hoot. :? :?

guys, I picked up some beers and food so we can make a BBQ while waiting here. Maybe we can even do some rosted crickets :wink:

If we fall asleep, please awake us if there is something new :)

Maybe TKO or Roy had something else that came up at the last min, and could not write a review or take the pics at the pics time..

Give it some time guys and gals, soon we will have them.

Don't fret, fellas. You know the big scoop for 1:18th?

The announcement of the much anticipated, highly-demanded S2-S9 paint schemes of the M-17 trailer! :P

And there's probably gonna be a minor announcement about items that people don't really care for, like the 88, or the Kingtiger. Silly unimportant things like that. :wink:

Or maybe TKO got really, really drunk and hung over on sunday and just forgot. :D
Or maybe his Wife said lets go to Napa Valley and his whole weekend is shot to hell... :D

Why the delay? I been running from the angry mob that have burned down my house! :lol:

You guys are really funny! It has been fun to read your posts about the delay and the reasons behind it. The real reason is a little less exciting I am afraid. The huge volume of new product both in development and in production needed a lot of attention and kept 21C from getting me the promised news. I was in a holding pattern. The logjam has been apparently cleared and more is news is being preparred as we speak. -Hold off the lynch mob! :lol:

Take a look at the finished platoon figs on AREA-21!
