Finally GOt a PTE LittleBird

Post by steelbonnet » Tue Feb 14, 2006 3:21 am

Well finally I`ve secured myself a PTE Littlebird & I`m over the moon with it.

The best part is though it`s length wise & height wise (If both were on same size skids) to the BBI LittleBird (IDF version).

Yea I know the tails taller on the BBI one but overall there almost spot on next to each each BODY wise.

So another addition to my HELO family that I`m really happy with :D

My Helo`s at present are:-

BBI AH 64 Apache
BBI Kiowa
BBI UH 60 Blackhawk
BBI Littlebird
PTE Blackhawk
PTE Littlebird
Chap mei SEAKNIGHT

Need to sort out a photo of my HELo lot,not as big as some here but considering I`m in Blighty i`m impressed :D

Still need to get a Pavehawk,Supercobra,BBI Hind (now..lol),another one or two PTE Littlebirds. Maybe another Blackhawk too to convert into a 160th version. Saw one down on the old board & still have that saved on disk here,mighty impressive it is too :D

I LOVE the PTE stuff too! I've got a couple of the helicopters and with them being only $6.99 at KB, ya can't help but get a couple more!
While the PTE stuff lacks the 'detail' of bbi and 21C, their figures are the best articulated 1:18 on the market! Now if you're not crazy about the figures, LMK!! :D

HAHAHAHA Nice try Holo,Afraid i`m a Big fan of PTE figures ;) Also of eversparkle too (once you add BBI feet & hands & headswaps) :D

Must admit though PTE is still the line a lot don`t like & alas over here seem to have dried up :(

Still they do a LOT of stuff no one else has :D

Yeah, I tried....and it's ashame that PTE is such a small company that it can't keep up with the success it's having with the PTE and their 12" figures. Their website is a joke, and while I whine about the poor distribution of XD and bbi at WM's and TRU, PTE's distribution to KB stores is sparatic and ANYWHERE ELSE is HORRIBLE!
