I would've liked to had one of those P-51's but not everyone had a fair chance to participate in this contest seeing that Wal-Mart was the main player in it.

I live in SC.and there are 6 Wal-Marts within a 30 mi. radius of me. Not one of these stores carry up to date 21C items let alone 1/18 scale. They deal in other stores non sellable merchandise. I've talked to each one's mgr, and all I get is "we can only sell what corporate sends us".

It would be nice if 21C left Wal-Mart out of future contests and come up with a contest everyone has a fair chance at.

An option to enter this contest is for you to ask another board member to purchase and ship the planes to you for another location that has the FW-190s.
If you look in the TRADE/BUY section of the board, you will see all kinds of different items being traded or sold.
Some members have sold the proofs of purchase and Walmart receipts to other members for a reduced rate, so others can enter the contest.
Just post a request and there is bound to be some member that is able to help you.
I have some of the planes, but I have already used the proofs of purchase and receipts to enter myself in the contest or I would offer them to you.
Just let us know - and odds are someone can help you out.

Thanks for the info but it's a little late in the game for that only 10 day's left. I'll remember this in case of another such contest.
