So, I made my run to Wally to do a check, and I found a diecast 1/48 Little Bird. I thought that would be cool to add to the collection of 1/48 bird hanging from the ceiling of my classroom. I looked at the bottom of the box and it said New Millanium Toy San Laedero, Ca. Is this from 21st? Can TKO or somebody else clarify this?

This is kind of old news, but yes, those are 21c products. They've been rotting on the shelves in Wal Marts in my AO for months now. There's also a couple of Hummer variants and some new WWII vehicles, including a Kubelwagon, Schwimmwagon, 3/4 ton Weapons carrier, and DUKW. Only the modern vehicles have figures, though.

Thanx---I usually don't cruise the toy aisles looking for other things so this caught my eye. Now I know, and knowing is half the-- wait wrong toy line.

There's a thread on this in the 1:32 & smaller forum. Anyway, I did pick up the desert Cargo Humvee and the black Little Bird a few weeks ago. Still searching for the M113, but have serious doubts that they actually produced it (it's shown on the back of the other boxes, and the photo looks like it's actually a picture of the 1:18 M113).
