Cool - Good ole Dirk

We've heard about them all and we saw bbi's Hellcat but the longshot is the Bf-110 imo. That's a big AC, and if the Avenger was "almost ready" at last year's toy fair and will be "almost ready" at this year's Toy Fair, I'd be impressed to see an Me-110 in 2006. Maybe bbi or Admiral has one up their sleeve

With the F86 & the Avenger that's a half dozen new toys for you fly-boys

Yep, it's Dirk alright. I met him at TF2005 and he a really nice guy! He very well might know something we don't!

but in a personal message a long time ago R.S told me he was going to do a 1/18 Me-110.
my wife said it was about the time he was writting the Mosquito book
so we can only pray

Let's hope we'll see at least several of those planes mentioned sitting on the shelves in the near future.

I was in touch with Jason recently and had sent him a list of "wants" from admiral, among them were F-15, F-14, A-4, A-10, and a WWII F-4 0r F-6.
Also on the list were any WWII bombers but those are unlikely, "lots of plastic".
Any how, his response while cryptic, said that one of the planes on my list was a very strong possibility in the near future. Any guesses?

my guess is beings we know they are doing a Zero, either Wild or Hellcat

Seeing a 1/18th Hellcat would be a dream come true for me and I hope BBI comes out with one or 21st. I can only hope that in 2006 I will see and have one in my collection. But until then I look forward to the Avenger and the soon to be (hopefully released) Bunker Hill F4U.

I said it this past Autumn, and I'll say it again - I predict we'll see a Hellcat, Wildcat, or Dauntless from bbi or another company, before we see 21st's Avenger.

I agree.

You guys might be right - the number of small retailers that are showing their hand on the bbi Hellcat is growing. If the past is any indication, when it is finally confirmed it should be here shortly thereafter. It could be any day now for all we know

What other retailers besides Dirk's shop are showing their hands?
