Pickelhaube, did you win it?
If you are going to dismantle it for pieces, I could have use from the front windshield , left pilot's door, 2 cargo room doors (if not to much scratches - have had some issue with the windows!) and 1 main gear wheel (forgotten under my working light)...
But I'm also very interested in what are your ideas!!!By the way, it is a BBI 1:18, not a 21st 1/32.

I did win it .

I hope it is 1/18th scale.

I never noticed the listing as 1/32 :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

I hope I did not blow it and pizz my money away on 1/32.

Did they even make a 1/32 Blackhawk ?

One word.

Stealth :wink:

It was witten like this:
21st century toys : Ultimate Soldier 32X Army Helicopter with pilots
But the pilot on the picture is so typically BBI, sorry if I gave you some trouble.
Anyway, a good deal. What are you going to make with it???

I saw the listing too, but I looked at its size compared to the overhead door and thought that it had to be 1/18. That is the only reason I posted. I, too, don't recall a 1/32, so I felt ok with the post. I certainly hope I didn't mess you up on this auction.

That’s a 1:18th Helicopter. The figures have the joints and everything. The lock in the photo is a good reference for size.

Thanks guys for the reassurance.

After I paid for it , is when I noticed the 1/32 listing.

My head nearly exploded :shock:

Anyway I am back to normal and if it is truly 1/18 scale I got a heck of a deal.

If I ever get time this will be the basis of my Black hawk stealth helo. :D :D :D

PH, I'd be curious to hear what pieces you're going to tweek: all parts except the seats?
Anyway, as I told you, if they are some pieces you don't need anymore, like all 4 doors, 1 wheel, front windshield...remember me!

The helo arrived before Christmas !!!~

It is 1/18th scale !!!!!!

Man what a steal.

But it is missing the rear stab, one main rotor blade and a winglet with fuel cell.

Still a great price at $22.55 plus $16 shipping !!!

Thanks so much for posting this.

Possibly the best deal I have gotten off of E-bay !!
