I found new sets at Fresno, California. They were actually stashed in the lego section, and I only noticed them in passing. The sets are all the same as the previously released ones, save that the "Counter Attack" playset comes with a Panther instead of a Tiger tank and the "Costal Defense 'The Bluffs'" set comes with two bunkers, a Pak-40, smaller cannon, and gun crew.

They also had the new British infantry and the German Infantry. The British soldiers aren't painted that well, but the German soldiers look great!

P-47

Post by cruizin2000 » Sat Jul 30, 2005 7:35 am

I was up early this morning and went looking for the T-bolt after getting my pearly whites cleaned. :)

I ended up with another 32X Galland 109. This will end up on the desk at work. :wink:

I'd like to see some of those playsets with the new crew/howitzer.

We don't get alot of 32X here. One big shipment (1 case?) and then they're gone.

I just bought a ton today! The new howitzer and crew are great! Didnt need the whole bunkers and pak have two of each already. Also bought a few vehicels and four aircraft. Great stuff 21st is on a roll and in my opinion if they can keep up the pace they can corner the market. Completly leave the others behind.

The Fresno, Ca. Wal Mart on Kings Canyon & Peach has the new P-47, ME-109 and Sky Captain P-40. I got the P-47 and think it ranks with the AVG P-40 as one of the best 32x planes to date. These down scaled 1:18 planes are cool and 21c, overall, has the best selection of 1:32 aircraft on the market! The boxes were also marked with a "Limited Edition Paint Scheme" sticker and some fo the aircraft squadron info, in the case of the P-47.

The Sky Captain P-40, IMHO, has come way to late to sell well with the general public since everyone has forgotten about that film. However, I still think its cool they made one as watching that film made me think of my XD P-40 :)

Hey Guys, I'm not sure if this has been reported yet. I picked up 3 new 1/32nd planes a candy cane 190, Snortin Bull and Eileen. They look just like their big brothers in 1/18. The 190 has the loop and ventral antenna, also the pitot. It looks sharp I hope they release the other 190's. I haven't opened the P47's yet as I'm assuming they look as good as the Eagleston.

Cool!! The FW is out. I still need to find the P-47s.

Is Snortin Bull and Eileen P-47 Ds or Bs???

We just got two of the playsets here - Squad on the Attack and the one with the 2 buildings/Panther.

Maybe the FWs, P-47s, and the bunker sets will show up soon.

I'm going to have to get a second job to keep up with this stuff, A&A minis, and Heroscape!!

Cool, I am looking forward to the 190's.. The local Walmart that typically carries this stuff is in the middle of re-setting the shelves for Christmas, so it may be a few more weeks till I see some..

Found the new 32x FW-190s and P-47 repaints at the Wal Mart on east Shaw ave. in Clovis, Ca. The FW-190 comes in the "White One" and "Red 3" paint schemes and totally rocks! The figure is a downscaled variant of the 1:18 FW-190 pilot and the plane comes with loop antenna, straight antenna, and the pitot tube. This plane, along with the P-47 and P-40 are the best 32x planes and completely origional in this particular scale! I am quite pleased with these downscaled versions of the 1:18 aircraft.

Its this plane:

...or rather a 1:32 scale version of it w/o the swatstika. I only bought the "Red 3" variant, as it goes well with my 32x ME-262. Both are essentially identical to the 1:18 versions, save no moving control surfaces. The figure is painted like the 1:18 version. Here's a picture of the 32x FW-190 "White One" from Comicon that was on the Area21 site.

Here's some more pictures of the "Red 3" variant of the 32x FW-190. Hopefully one can make out the antennas and other details that are present on this one an not on the 1:18 version :)

Yes, I like White 1. Now if my Wallys will just get these birds in.

Tman, I thought about the candy strip FW to go with the 262s as protection. Set up some 88s and the flakpanzers and you have a nice diorama. You're pretty good with the camera, try one.

I guess I'll be hittin' Wallys at lunch today. Probably only to be disappointed.

I found a P-47! Yippee!! They also had two of the black P-40s and 2 black 109s.

I also saw 5-6 XD FWs, XD hummers and command cars, a few series 1 Cold Steel and the new XD Pnzr IVs.

Now if I can only find White 1.

32x in Tulsa..

Post by hworth18 » Wed Aug 10, 2005 10:09 am

I picked up the NF Bf-109 and the Eagleston P-47 today.. They also had the SkyCapt. P-40, but NO fw-190's.. Hopefully I will be getting an Fw-190 soon thru another member here, so I am not that disappointed..
