Small Scale Military Headquarters

Here's a tough question.
What is your absolute favourite model in your collection?Any scale,any companyAircraft,armour figures,whatever.
Should be a mixed bag of responses to this one.
I am going with my BBI 1:18 F-18,"Red Devils"version.
The model is Large,detailed and well painted.I have other F-18's,but this is my favourite version.It does grab your attention,and have had lots of compliments on it.People are really impressed with both the size,and the detail.
However,biggest is not always best.I have many other models in smaller scales that are excellent.
What do the rest of you think?

BBI 1/18 F/A-18C "Golden Dragons" Hornet

I won't list the runners up, but they're close

it is a split between hu and p38...

those were my first plane...

Since any scale is considered, my favorite model model would be my Century Wings VF-84 AJ201 F-14 followed closely by my 1/32 4D Famemaster F-14 VF-84 AJ201.

The S1 21C US halftrack by far. Can't count the moving parts, comes with a bunch of goodies, and after all these years nothing really comes close.

I will have to be my "82" BBI Corsair.

-Ski

Camo RAAF P-51. Jets are cool, but my interest is in the older planes. The paint and weathering is great on this plane and I happy to have gotten one.

I like the Flak 36/37 88mm Gun alot, but have always prefered US Armor and at the top of the list is the Halftrack. Add some awsome firepower and my favorite model would have to be the 1/18" M16 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage.

BBI 1/18th Hellcat.

That's a tough decision to make.

My favorite would have to be a White Scout Car, followed by my custom WC-52 and a Command Car, all 1/6 and all started by 21C.

Followed by my 1/6 DID SdKfz 251 and a 21C Stuart, and then my 1/6 Gort and Klaatu and my DML 1/6 Pack 75.

In 1/18, I'd have to say my M-48 and my Stuka.

Really hard to decide between alot of my favorite "toys" and "dollies". I do like them all, even the Hasbro clunkers.

TTT

Of all time ?

I would have to say my 1/16 FOV King Tiger in heavy metal.

Then my 1/18 scale A7V if I ever finish it.

My favorite aircaft would be my aprx 1/6 scale R/C P-38. It has a 110 inch wingspan.

It is actually 1/5.67 scale a little bigger than 1/6 scale.

Favorite model in my collection? I guess it would be my BBI Corsair "Marine's Dream." There are a lot of other close contenders, but that one will have to top it.

* * *

If I break down my favorites by time period, this would be the list:

WWII Aircraft:
BBI Corsair "Marines Dream"

WWII Armor:
21c Tiger I "Eastern Front Cammo"

Korea/Vietnam Aircraft:
21c F-104 S1 "USAF"

Korea/Vietnam Armor:
21c M-41 Walker-Bulldog

Modern Aircraft:
Toss-up: BBI F-16 "wolfpack" vs 21c AH-1W Supercobra "Snake"

Modern Armor:
21c M2 Bradley S2 "Desert cammo"

My good o'l Tiger1, yea thats tops for me.

Custom painted f-16.Thunderbird scheme.

my FOV 1/16th tiger 1 007 and the King Tiger

For A/C the 21st me-262 A and B

21st S1 Tiger.

My "Bunker Hill" Avenger, because a great friend bought it for me.

Aircraft, hands down, AVG P-40B/C...its is the best in my collection.
(With a few tweaks...well, actually, with allot of tweaks)

Armor, any of the 1/16 FOV Tigers or Sherman on the shelf.

Favorite plane - my Spitfire
my atlantic Avenger and #82 BBI corsair comming in close second
Tank: my winter dicast Tiger

Our 1/18th collection? The white Stuka, then the Atlantic Avenger and of course the Flying Tigers P40.

Guys,

in my opinion, the Mig 15 is the best plane 21st ever made. This airplane is less spectacular than a P-38, Avenger, Spit and more but take the time to watch it carefuly. No screw cache on body, only two small ones under wings. Finely engraved panels lines, lots of small details, airbreaks, turbine details. No QC issue.

I think 21st was on the way to produce the ultimate models and the Mig was the first step.
