Small Scale Military Headquarters

how many of us would be interested in the wheel chocks. (the board that goes around the wheels of a parked plane)? If it was built with the same quality of Buildarama.
The cost would be around $6.
Let me know what you think.

Would be great!!! Adds more realism when the plane is sitting on the shelf.

what else would you guys like to see?

1/18 F-4, A-10

Wheel chocks would be cool. As for what else: tools, a work bench/table, stepladder, fuel/oil bowser - essentially anything related to aircraft maintainence!

I can customize ground crew figures and don't want to purchase a whole new aircraft repaint simply to get the included tools.

also
1/18 engines, and stands
both piston and jet engines.
avation tool boxes & jack stands
some of the heavier planes don't set well on landing gear and an avation jack or stand would be neat

Kagnew: "1/18 F-4, A-10".......... We'll take 'em any way we can get 'em!!!!!! Someone is bound to make one of these things one day; keep the pressure on 'em!!!!!

How about conversion kits? All of the bits and pieces to convert one variant of an aircraft model to another older or updated variant.

i'm teaching myself how to cast resin plastic, one of my first projects is i'm going to try a 4 bladed Hamiton Standard prop and cowl to do a 1/18 F4U-4
i have already vacuumed formed a 1/32 F4U-4 canopy.now working on balsa form for a vacuum form 1/18 F4U-4 canopy. so if someone else did coversion parts also i would be willing to help them and buy stuff also

I'd definately be interested. Are you going to have them in pairs attached by rope??

yes, I thought it would be nice to have two versions, one navy and one army air corp.

Sounds cool. I would purchase some.

How about a 1:18 hangar, WWII style, with the lighted windsock on top?

This is a very good thread gentlemen. Keep up with the good work.

I'm in for some wheel chocks.

How about "Remove before flight tags"?

I've done some on my laser printer, but I'm not really happy with them.

I was trying to get Buildarama to produce some wheel chocks but it looks like they are not interested in 1/18. I am on the search for a company that will produce them and more more for us.
keep giving me ideas of what you would like to see and I will do my best to get someone to produce them for us.

thank you for all of your great suggestions.

Interesting...makes me think they know something we don't. Perhaps some of the 'Legends' planes will include chocks? Makes sense that they would if they ever arrive

no its not that, what I got from them is that they are more interested in producing for 1/32 scale. I think it because 1/18 scale most people hang their planes therefore they don't need dioram items.
