Questions on some products

Post by 75th Ranger » Tue Feb 22, 2005 10:39 am

So here are my questions:

1- What happened to the 21st 1/18 scale diorama playsets?

2- what about the halftracks?

3- What about the new stuff from bbi?....no more armor or helos?....or even the WWII figures in 1/18?....

4- what about Dusty trails 1/18 SOF or cowboy lines?

Does are some of the questions that comes to mind...please let me know if you guys have any answers to them since it seems that not even the toy fair is going to answer those.....?????

take care,
HOOAH!

1) 1:18 playsets - not yet, but maybe down the line, you never know.

2) The halftracks were shown in the box ready to go. I hate to say "I told you so" to those people that broke the bank on ebay, but I did say they were coming back, and they are. Look closely at the display and you will see both S2 halftracks boxed up and ready to go.

3) The bbi situation is a mystery. They don't seem too concerned with the collector base or with PR. Hopefully we will see the WWII figs soon - they look awesome.

4) Dusty Trails did not show the Cowboy line. The SoF looked cool but it is larger than 1:18 and the figures were not articulated. They showed 3 1:18 scale guys that only moved at the shoulder, and they looked like scaled down versions of the already released 6" guys - Swat, WWII marine, and modern soldier in woodland camo.

:(
i really wanted more 1/18 scale figures and armor...plus more diorama accessories so that i could keep building my WWII diorama.

hopefully the 21st marines set I and the newer set II cammo, the bbi WWII figures and the Platoon figures will hit he market soon....the Dusty trails supposedly SOF figures seem like they are going to be a disapointment.....i was really looking foward to the MACV figure....
does any one has any pics?

keep me posted
take care,
HOOAH!
