Those are all 1:18 - the P-47 Razorback in the foreground, the Herman Graf ME-109G, and the NKK Spitfire (back next to the Eagleston P-47) give it away. Still, it goes to show how good 21c is getting with their recent 1:32 aircraft!

...now if they would just upscale and add interiors to some of their 1:32 armor pieces...

actually some of those are in 1/32 right now! The Eagleston (yellow nose P-47), and the me-109E nightfighter are just hitting shelves now. I know that there are more P-47's in the lineup as well. There were a lot of new 1:32 airplanes shown at Comic Con!

Aferg.. I have about 6 1/18 planes, but no place to even display them.. I have MUCH more room for 1/32 stuff.. They are also easier to play with.. :D
So, in saying that.. Why don't you try going down a scale?? It couldn't hurt and you'll get 3 planes for the price of 1.. :wink:

Thanks, but the 18 in my "handle" has nothing to do with XD... :roll:

The Eagleston P-47 is out in 1/32nd scale?! Oh crap now I'll have to hope and pray Wallymart carrys them or else I'll have to order one on line.

I haven't had the chance to get a Comic Con gallery up yet... I have a LOT of images from the 21st booth and a shot of every aircraft (XD and 32x) as well as every figure, vehicle, etc. Will get that up soon.

Mighty Mustang-
My Wal-Marts here just got the Eagleston, Nightfighter, and the Sky Cap in 1/32! At 15.00 bucks they are very cool! The Eagleston is my favorite of the bunch. The T-bolt looks great in 1/32!

Agreed on the Eagleston T-bolt! I didn't get that plane in 1:18, but the 1:32 version is just fine. I just saw the other 1:32 P-47s and they looked fantastic as well. The FW-190-D9s are also very cool, replicating their 1:18 brethren to a "t".
