Check it out. Loose 1/18 scale spit still at a decent price. Just thought I would give everyone a heads up.

P.S. It's not mine, just thought it was a good price.

i still say the backwards D-Day stripes look better than the right way. Dunno why.

My trick knee tells me we're gonna get a spitfire from BBI in the next year or two.

No - a Hurricane. Dont have one of those yet and if BBI makes it I can get one..or two.

Actually maybe Admiral will make one too. LOTS of room for spitfires with the myriad of different types and paint schemes. I can think of about a dozen i'd like just off the top of my head.

my hunch is that bbi is going to come out with a mark v spitfire. If so, it will be able to be painted in desert, among a myriad of other schemes; desert would go nicely with their first issue 109.

Also, with 21c apparently still alive and with the promise of a re-release of some older items, maybe we'll see a desert spit from them. Wouldn't be quite right but i'd take it. I'm sure pH could make a new spinner and desert filter for us. :wink:

I'd love a Hurricane too, no question. But i think it less likely at the moment, the economy being what it is. In a few years, when the economy is rolling and 1/18 is flourishing again, then i bet we might see an AT Hurricane.
