I really like the pilot that comes with the Tuskeege P-51. The face detail is incredible, and it is almost as if that little pilot is looking at me. Great job on that pilot 21st Century. :D

Thanks for posting the picture Tristan. I also like how the pilot has his tie on under his flight jacket. This is really a nice pilot figure.

I replaced the head on my 21c retooled Mustang pilot with the head from the carded S1 version.

OK I know what happend to my T. Teror pilot. I think that it is actually one of those aleins that are comming out with the Lost Squadron Avenger and it got stuck in the mold when they were punching out the 51 pilots . Kind of like a double stamping at the U. S. Mint. :? . I am sitting here looking at him and he is looking back. Should I reach for a weapon :?: I think that the clear plastic will hold him back. :shock:

You could melt him down in the microwave and then bury the remains in the backyard but that would just make him angry. :twisted:

Rowsdower,
I think your right. Should I put a motor in the 51 and throw him in the prop? I don't think even Chucky could live through that. :shock:

Also read in an article on the web yesterday that President Bush recognized the Tuskeegee pilots for their service to the armed forces during WW2.

A local TV news lady Sally Ann Roberts' dad was one of the guys recognized buy the Pres. I think that this is one of the best looking 51's that is out there. The Ausie camo by BBI is in the top as well . They do look good together :D

Be nice if they'd release him as a carded figure.

The figure is incredible!!! I just wished 21st/BBI could get the main gear doors right and I'd probably own all of the P-51s.... :wink:
