Mines in.

Just got off the phone with kent at MTS. This is from Admiral. This history of this a/c is incredible. It was on the Lady Lex during Pearl Harbor. Fought at Midway. Shot down at Guadicanel(sp). Recovered and went to the Great Lakes area as a training a/c, lost in the water there. Recovered later and is now at the museum at Pensacola. If I got all that right, I was too incredulous to take notes!!

Oh my~


Are you sure of this? Theres no sign of it one the AT Website AFIK.

Pretty sure I will get this if it is in 1:18

Yeah, their own website shows it and kent said they were going to wait until after the toy show, but decided to go ahead and put it up anyway. He also said this is a test to see how it goes and if it goes well they're also looking at a wildcat and a "comet", not sure on the comet, but that's what it sounded like and since he was heading to a meeting I didn't have time to make sure. The only comet's that come to mind are the DH-88 racer and the airliner/maritime a/c. neither one of which I would expect to see.

YES!!!!!!

Holy crap! One of my favorites!

Interesting... Last I knew, this was supposed to wait for Toy Fair to debut. But nice to see it is on the way!

WOW!!!

Hope it looks like the picture shown....incredible!!!

I'm telling you, Admiral Toys is going to take this hobby to the next level with it's offerings. Looks like they are truly listening to what we want.

shhh.......nobody tell Jason we found this out and next time he gives us a clue for a new plane we can all guess it first time.

Excellent news btw. Wonderul choice.

Tempting, tempting. Although somehow, I suspect that he may have had a hand in the early announcement.

Now, next question: should we start a pool to guess how many days before 21st announces theirs?

Wow! Nice surprise for this evening. I'll be getting a few of those.

Hot d@amn! My most wanted still unmade 18 scale plane! The Dauntless is the plane that won the battle of the Pacific. With the quality of Admiral's 262, I'm sure they'll knock this one through the roof.

Very impressive, and to quote many of my fellow board members:"WOW"

PS Kent and Isaiah are straight shooters...met them at the Sun-n-Fun FlyIn in 2006. Good people.

I have my order in.

Yessss!!!!! with all these PTO aircraft becoming available, we are in need of carrier deck to display them all

Great to hear that 1/18 is still going strong! I'm glad there will be more carrier planes!

Is this the Comet that might be coming out?
ME-162.

That didn't occur to me. Oy, I hope I heard that one right.

And maybe a Wildcat also. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where is the Dauntless in Admirals website? I could not find it. Thanks

I doesn't seem to be yet. I think Jason was waiting until after the Toy Fair.

"and maybe a wildcat and a komet"

both great choices but kind of odd to lump them together, hinging on the success of the dauntlass.

Sort of a "one of these things is not like the others" from Sesame Street.

I just realized, 21c doesn't show special commissions on their website. All the great stuff from Badcat and Bunnie from HA, don't show.

Wow! And here I thought I was going to be finished with 1:18. A Dauntless is a must!

I'm in!
