Look like an expensive year for 32x, I just hope they all don't come out at the same time...

You forgot the new P-47D bubbletop thunderbolt! That bad black bird is also in the new assortment!

Doh!!! Thanks, I'll add it..

For you armor and artillery guys there is also gona be a M7 Preist out later this year.

Are these 'in-stores' yet?

According to the 21c sources, they should be appearing soon. I'm hoping they see the distribution that the first P-47s and FW-190s saw at Wal Mart, and that they aren't rare like the more recent aircraft releases.

I agree with Tman.... I hope these are widely distributed, and soon, I might add..

Geez, I'm in envy of all the new stuff for you 1/32nd guys. What happened to 1/18th???

Well lets see, there have recently been some new vehicles (Dodge & Hummer), the RC tanks, the S2 Japanese and the OMG paras, the Bunker Hill Corsair, Stuka, and ME-109G repaints, and in a couple months there will be the retooled P-51s, the F-86, and (hopefully) the Avenger. All is not lost in that realm yet, and those of us who collect both scales are going to be digging deep...

i may have to start collecting 1/32 scale...

There, i said it.

I think, it is not the P-47D but the P-47M. And it's the first 21st CT plane flown by the Polish pilot (Cpt. Lanowski was one of the Polish fighter pilots, who came from the Polish squadrons to the USAAF)! Thank you, 21st CT! I'm waiting for the next Polish planes and maybe tanks and soldier figures, too...

Thanks Aferg,
I saw the prototype pic of the green w/sand slpotches earlier, but it wasn't shown at the toyfair, so I wasn't sure whether to add that one..
Maybe TKO can verify if it is a production certainty or not??

If it is one, then we have 15 planes total!!!

Come Aferg.. Come to the Darkside, you'll love it!!!!

i am weakening....i think i need to go live in a monestary for a while to collect myself and re-focus.

The green macchi is shown on the figures.com coverage.....you can add it, i'm certain.

Oh lord,......Where am I going put all this New stuff that's coming out ? ...I guess I'll either have to add an addition onto my house,...or simply rent a storage facility. ........Sheesh !

I like Aferg's suggestion of going to a monastery. Thats where I'll have to go when I ever decide to stop collecting small-scale military products...

I know this is OT, but oh well

How much more can I take ?

With all the new stuff coming out I may end up divorced

luftpanzer, hold the line. You have a built in support group here. We feel your pain.

I like the idea of a monastary, lots of room for my collections.
bwaaa haaaa haaaa (evil laugh)

21st Century has posted pics to the front page of the Zero and Folgore.. Looks like we're front page news!!! Great to see this, now I just need them in my hot little hands...

We can also look forward to a repaint of the 88mm flak in Desert tan

where'd you see the desert flak gun?

Their are none yet,...but these are more fun to paint up yourself. I don't have any pic's to share though, cause I don't have this capability yet.
