I just received 11 1/18 planes I've been waiting for. I got the whole lot, minus the Spitfire, for $140 shipped. That's like $14 per plane. The Spitfire I got for $75 locally. The lot included 3 flying tiger P-40s, D-Day P-38, S1 Stuka, P-47 Donnie Boy, P-47 Checkertail, Bf-109G Seeman, Pearl Harbor Zero, and an Atlantic Avenger. Here's some pics:

Enjoy!

hey that floor would make a great japanese carrier deck. Just paint some markings on it and pose your Pearl Harbour Zero. :)

Wow! Sweet deal! :shock: 8)

As to how it came about, I imagine someone must have been pretty desperate to sell his collection at that price. Either that, or a poor fellow kicked the bucket and his family thought they had no use for those "silly plastic toys." :roll: :lol: (Well, there's a third option, albeit highly unlikely: 21st's former CEO is underselling his collection at WM/TRU prices. :P )

That floor looks mighty messy, I'll be right over and get that debris off your floor, and as usual there will be no charge, now just give us a time that no one will be home and we can fix that unstightly mess :D

And no thanks are need :lol:
