WHAT A SUMMER!!!!

Post by Morian Miner » Sun Aug 07, 2005 7:07 pm

Man, just a few months ago we were talking about how nothing was out, and when will the drought end. Now, we have new Japanese Figures and 32X stuff from 21C at Walmart with rereleases of WC63s, Walkers, Halftracks, Marines, etc. Then, we get a new detailed series from them along with the F-104. Then, BBi hits us with the Target stuff, the Paratroopers, the Corsair, and the black F18 on Amazon. Heck, throw in the pre-releases of the repainted BBi P51 and new 21C P51........

Toss into the mix the two X-4 missiles I had made to arm one of my FW-190s (once I paint them and make a casting to make more :wink: ). Not to mention the GI Joe stuff Hasbro has online now.

WOOHOO!!! The head is spinning, and the stripe is being worn off my credit card! As expensive as this is, its one heck of a ride.

This certainly has been one awesome summer! The week I got the Japanese figures, new 32x figures, COED Sherman, Halftrack, and the F-104 was simply wonderful!

Yes boys its been a great summer. With the fourth coming repaints of the bbi P-51's, new bbi Corsair, plus all the other stuff that is coming from 21st its been great for us 1/18th collectors. The best is yet to come I'm sure.

The first post mentioned a "black F-18 on Amazon".

I miss that one completely.

Was there a thread on this?
Any links to the item on Amazon?

Cheers :D

Have to agree. It's been a pleasant surprise at all the new stuff that has arrived! The future does look bright for both 1/18 and 1/32 scale items.
