What is my dream?
Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress
McDonnell Douglas F-14 TomCat
Fairchild A-10 Warthog
I dream big.

One hundred and fifty three - 1:18 scale aircraft on the ceiling looks :shock: damn good!

It would be nice to have a later model P-40, like an N model.

Oops!
Folkwulfe is right. Grumman made the F-14 TomCat.
McDonnell Douglas made the F-15 Eagle.

I'm only into the boots myself, so the big 3 for me would be:
1. Sturmgeshutz (any variant)
2. British Infantry
3. Russian Infantry

B-17, but I'd settle for a B-25, B-26, B-27, JU-88...even in 1/32! Speaking of which, I thought I'd pass this along, rumor has it that Dragon's 1/6th B-17 gunner is just the first in a series that will include the entire flight crew and the section of the plane they were in. Can you imagine a 1/6th scale belly gunner, tail gunner and cockpit!

I haven't read any of the posts for this section, so these have probably already been said, but I'd like to see an A-10 and a F-4 Phantom. I love the A-10 because of Transformers, what an awesome plane! And the F-4 because of the Dayton Airshow. An F-22 would be neat too, but I don't know if they've already made one or not.
Okay, you are now firing a gun at your imaginary friend NEAR 400 POUNDS OF NITROGLYCERINE!!!

ok, let's be unrealistic. Now, what would your dream 1/18 item be? Just one item....but anything, in 1/18.
Mine is a toss up between a full hull Typhoon class submarine and a WWI era Zeppelin. Hm....i'll go with the Zeppelin.
i never met an airplane i didn't like...

Oh, well, since we're being unrealistic...
I'd go for either a Iowa or South Dakota class battleship.
Complete with Vought Kingfishers or Curtiss Seahawks, of course.

I bet most of you guys have never even heard of this bird, the Westland Whirlwind...
http://hsfeatures.com/whirlwindbg_2.htm Not a particularly successful aircraft, but a pretty cool looking one, I used to "fly" one of these in Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 2, heavily armed with four 20mm cannon, it could shoot down just about anything.

I thought I was the only person on here who liked the Whirlwind Ost--nice taste.
However, if I could get just one thing that they won't make, I guess it would be for one of the companies to produce a plane from my collection of real nose art photos. Yeah know, something cool that I dug up the dirt on. Not necessarily a famous aircraft, but one that I could point to and say I give them the idea for it.
