Small Scale Military Headquarters

Well, lets post any good deals we find on hobby stuff, 1/18, ect! I know a lot of E-tailers do sales on black Friday and all that jazz.
If I see anything I will keep us posted.

Good idea!!

I was at a model show on Saturday and picked up a Stuka Zu Fuss, the vendor wanted $60...... I got it for $40 and a Pegasus V-1 for $34 the kit was $30 I think I did ok.....

I got a V1 at Joe Nall for like $25. He's a member here. I think his name is Opfor. Something like that.

I think my Hobbytown still has a couple halftracks and a Pak-40 for $28 or thereabouts. They have an M-48 and 88mm gun in there as well. The items haven't moved for months, and moved when the store moved.

And you're letting those poor 1:18 goodies go homeless for the Holiday Season? Have heart man, and take them home with you!

How was Joe Nall? Me and my dad almost went

Anyway, I got the 'nam camo F-104(boxed) at a local I.P.M.S show for $25, now have all 3 schemes(2 luftwaffe) from 21st

Too bad you didn't. You have to make it next year! i plan on flying there at the electric runway.

We'll have to meet up there! We were gonna go with the extreme flight MXS but didn't finish it in time

Hopefully I'll have better stuff next year. xD

Well, I just received a NIB 2001 21st Century Eastern front camo Tiger w/commander that I bought off eBay for $75.00 including shipping... But I can't open it till Christmas

Your mom pay for it? lol
I know what you mean though.

lol yes, my parents did. I'm only 13

Don't worry I'm 3 times your age and I have to wait until Christmas to open my toys also!

It's the only way to rationalize the purchase of loads of military toys!

The black Mercedes G4 is marked down to $59 at DiecastAuto:

Bingo!

I was at a gun show this morning and a guy was selling a few 21st 1:18 items. I was able to get a series 1 gray Tiger I new in the box but I could only talk him down to $75. I'm good with that.
Anyone know how much the series 2 ambush Panther goes for?

Well I went back and got the Panther for $60. It's in the box (opened and no commander) I just couldn't pass it up.

Normandy, I believe you got a great deal on the Ambush Panther. I've wanted one for some time, but haven't been willing to pay the $120+ they always seem to be on ebay.

Is it common to find 1:18 at gun shows?

Tinman, This guy sells some of the repro daggers and non guns and a few toys. In the past he's had some 32x and models he has built. To answer your question...... no its not common to find 1:18 at these shows, he was the only one.
I had picked up the Tiger and was happy with that but the S 2 Panther was the only one I've ever seen other than online,
so this afternoon I went back. It was still there and he was asking $60. I gave him the money and said thanks.

Thanks, just wondered 'cause gun shows take place here at least a couple of times a year but I haven't attended one in forever.
