Has anyone seen these or have these? I was viewing the Michigan Toy Soldier site and these aircraft are being offered. They're called a playset. In addition to the aircraft you get a couple figures and an armored vehicle. I'm interested in knowing if they truly are 1/32.

I have the Osprey... picked it up at the MCAS Miramar airshow a few years ago. Was nice to be able to compare it to REAL Ospreys that were parked right next my car on the way out. Overall it's REALLY nice... I just wish it didn't have such a large seam down the middle and the rotors were a little tighter so when they are folded they sit horizontal like the real ones The photos below are cell phone shots on top of my car while at Miramar - look in the background for the real ones. Scale wise, I have no idea if it's truly the correct 1/32 size sadly.
Every year I have a chat with one of the big toy vendors at Miramar, and always ask him about what's new with New Ray. The one thing I really wanted was the 1/48 scale Blue Angel with a sticker pack so I could have a full diamond formation... they were going to release that but then lost the license to make Blue Angel toys so it won't happen sadly. I'm holding out that someday they will produce a quality CH-53E Super Stallion. No one seems to have a really good quality one out there.

Thanks guys. The Michigan Toy Soldier site said they were 1/32. I knew it was too good to be true. I did check the New Ray site and it reflects 1/60. It's hard to believe these sites don't proof their offerings.
