My wish list for 'TV' based 1:18...

Not particularly in this order but, I'd LOVE to see 1:18 figures and vehicles based on....COMBAT!, Hogan's Heros, and RAT PATROL!! Of which my wife saw on some other site, that is being released on DVD!

i agree on Combat & Rat Patrol
plus a 1/18 M-16 half track
i don't know about H/Heros, if we had more Germans in trench coats we could do that ourselves

As far as Hogan's Heros, think of the camp, Stalag 13 buidings, Klink's office, watch towers, the German Shepards...

Speaking of which,...I'm in the process of building a POW camp of sorts. ...With "goon" towers,..barbed-wire fences. .....Make a cool "new" play-set,...would'nt it ? ....Ahhh,...they'll never do it,.. because of the implications of it. ...Just a thought.

I saw a M*A*S*H set of 1/18 on E-Bay a year or so ago. It had about 6 or 7 figures, only missing Klinger. I'd go for a Col. Hogan or Sgt. Shultz.
I just finished a guard tower for my VN figs. It's 16" tall.

I'm embarrassed guys,

..... mine is based on 1:32 / 1:35. .....I'm not on the same forum here,...HAHAHAHA !

....I saw "holensocks" post on the subject,..and forgot it was about 1:18 stuff. ....Ahhh,...well,...maybe it'll give the Toy Makers ideas,

...I hope. ....If they'll just listen to us !

.....BTW,.."kevrut" ....I'd like to see pic's of your "scratch built" 1:18 "Goon Towers".

Well, we have jeeps with mounted machine guns so we have at least half of the Rat Patrol squad. All we need is the figures.

1/18 Airwolf. W/Jean Michael Vincent and his backseater. I keep thinking it would be awesome as a BBI toy. Man would it be cool!!!

Loki · Post by **Loki** » Sun Jan 29, 2006 3:32 pm

Years back when Airwolf was on, one of the diecast companies(Ertyl, Nylent or Buddy L, don't really remember) made an Airwolf chopper, I never had it but remember seeing it on the shelves at TRU and it was about 1/18th, but knowing toy companies was probablly way underscale. I don't think it had any figures with it but I'm pretty sure the cockpit doors opened up. As far as the MASH stuff goes I had pretty much the whole line, now all I have left are a couple of banged up ambulances and a few figs. But the stuff has pontential, the basecamp set has a lot of great pieces, desks, chairs, filing cabinents, a typewritter, tables, benches, beds, etc... The stuff was cheaply made but with some weathering it would look great in a diorama. The tents unfortunately were made out of a very thin plastic (think fast food soda cup lids) and were held together with double sided tape. If anyone ever fines one at a decent price it's worth picking up, wish I still had all of mine.

How about a Guns of Navarone or Longest Day playset complete with landing craft, gliders,rail guns, oh and the Swedish Bikini Team. Wouldn't that be great?

Ya' know,..I actually had "The Guns of Navarone" playset by Marx,...when I was a kid. ...I only have a few pieces left of it now. ...It was 1:32 of course.

I'll bet you wouldn't loose The Swedish Bikini Team.

I love all of your ideas. My thought isn't from TV, but the movies. Not just any movie, but a Clint Eastwood movie. I am talking about the Russian Mig 35 from FireFox. Now wouldn't that be awesome on the mantle?

Does anybody remeber the movie Blue Thunder? The one about the police super copterwith Roy Schnieder? I had a roughly 1/18 scale toy of the helicopter. It was pretty cool with the movable gatling gun chin turret. I may still have it up in the attic, hmmm..,

Cool helicopter just like Airwolf. I have the 1/18ish toy in my collection. It is underscaled (as usual) but one day I plan on fixing it up to look better. It's still a cool looking helicopter and there was a short lived Blue Thunder TV series that aired around the same time as Airwolf.

I'd like to see figures from the "Tour of Duty" series also. I recieved all three seasons for Christmas and it's been fun watching them all over again.

Yeah a Over There set with Dim and Smoke would be terrific. Also China Beach and Combat! would be nice to see. I would even like a set of figures from the movie The Great Raid, if just to get a few marines wearing the cap instead of a helmet to add some more variety to my displays.
