Best of the 32x P-51B/Cs

Post by tmanthegreat » Wed Oct 17, 2007 12:58 am

We have not had a poll in the 1/32nd Scale-N-Smaller Forum for quite some time, so I thought it might be fun to see what you all think is the best paintscheme of the new 32x P-51B/Cs made by 21st Century Toys! This aircraft release has turned out to be one of my favorites in 1:32 scale thus far... They've already delivered seven new paintschemes to us since July, which is pretty fast for 21c 8)

So, what's the verdict :wink:

I have the Bullfrog, Polish RAF and Bald Eagle.

All of these are wonderfully done, and the Bullfrog has what I feel is the best weathering of any 21C regardless of scale.

That being said, I really think the Bald Eagle is my favorite.

This is actually a very tough decision, even though I wrote the poll! I've seen all the planes in person except "Berlin Express" and have picked them all up. If I was to choose my favorite, it would have to be "Cripes a Mighty." There's just something about the blue on silver with the invasion stripes thats appealing to me. A very close second would be the "Bald Eagle" plane 8)

As much as I am about my hometown boy (still waiting to pick one up) , I have to throw my support to my fellow Po-locks on this one. The Malcom hood and all, plus the fact that it is a Polish Sqd, this is more along model lines and I am deeply impressed

Did someone say "Berlin Express"????? :shock: No way! Tell me that they have not released Berlin Express because if they have I MUST HAVE IT at any cost. Any pics of it that one of you guys can send me I would appreciate it. Damn, I mean darn excuse me!
