Didn't Wal-Mart produce these under the "Motorworks" brand name?

I can't find that post, but I don't think what you're talking about is New_Ray...I just put a whole bunch of stuff from the company you're talking about into my storage space (actually, mine were pre-assembled---a Harrier, Lightning, Cobra, F-18, F-14 and a Huey) that I'm pretty sure was made by Toy Zone...if nobody clarifies, I'll get back to you Sunday....

It was AirPower. They were available at Wal-Mart. Only the Huey and the P51 were 1/32. The Cobra and P38 were 1/40 and the jets were even smaller. They were nice pieces and diecast and inexpensive. To this day I occasionally see the P51, Hueys and the Cobra at flea markets, toy shows...

There still is a 1/32 Apache available at Michaels and HobbyLobby. It's made by Testors and I think NewRay also made one. NewRay does make a 1/32 British helicopter also. In the past the Apache came in 3 different camos: desert, Helo green and a multi green and black camo. Nice and inexpensive.
