This is getting very interesting..

OH MY. The Tiger I has the the zimmerit. The Panther has skirts.
I dunno how I'm going to pay bills this summer.
If they release the KT, or god willing, some of those mystery figures we've been hearing about... I'll go ahead and file chapter 11 tomorrow, haha.

And the M4 with the caliope!!!!!

Sherman product specs state 'detailed engine'. Maybe a mistake, or maybe a re-tooling?

Post by **aferguson** » Sat May 23, 2009 1:17 pm

the sherman pictured is the bbi sherman with a calliope. I wonder if they bought the molds or if JSI is an offshoot of BBI. That explains why they said 'detailed engine'.

Image 9 - the M-41 has a mantle canvas!

If JSI is an offshoot of BBI that explains a lot. I remember Mike telling me once that one of BBI's factories was used by 21c to make many of their products. It also explains Jason's enigmatic comment of a few months ago that bbi was coming out with something soon that we'd all be very excited about.....in fact i remember thinking the mystery 1/18 F-14 on preorder at that japanese etailer was possibly made by bbi.

As it turns out it's JSI, but it's quite probable they are an offshoot of bbi.

If so, then we know what kind of quality to expect.....which is very good quality, paint, rugged design etc.

Very good.

Don't hold yourself back, open one set and preserve the other! I opened mines very carefully from the card using a swiss army knife to slowly peel off where the plastic blister connects with the cardboard to avoid the paper being ripped past the glued lines, this is a great way to preserve the packaging.

I bought the whole set loose with all the buildings, a German Halftrack and some other Germans and Americans for around $150 about two years ago.

I still don't have the complete set of Fallshirmjagers carded. I'm missing two of the Privates.

This is good news now we know that they will produce figures I only hope the JSI will get the rest of 21st molds.

flayrah · Post by **flayrah** » Sun May 24, 2009 3:02 pm

I just noticed - no Avenger.
Where is the Avenger mould?

Probably in the same thrash can as the Spitfire mold.

I also heard this from someone at 21st Century at NY Toy Fair some years ago.
