Tinman wrote:Had a chance to check out the WM in Big Flats (Elmira area) NY today. Picked up the 1:32 Zero (green) and the Italian plane (the darker color scheme). Very nice! I'm starting to think that 1:32 is a great scale for aircraft, while 1:18 is best for vehicles and armor.

Also saw the 3rd r/c Panzer variant. Not a buy for me.
I have a problem with the scale of the 1/32, seems to me the revell 1/32 model kits were a lot bigger. These 21c look just a tad bigger than 1/48.

Has the green BBI Zero shown up anywhere except on Badcats preorder- 10 or 20 of em?.
I just had an damned epiphamy- Over the past couple of months alot of 21st Cent stuff has shown up in this area- others, too. The WC57 variants, the Humvees, new P-51 ridge runners, German 104s, Seeman 109s, OMG, BOB2, Jap marines, the 1/32nd repaints as well as the new Zeros and Macchis; overall, they seem to be delivering their product fairly well. It may be ungrateful to appear too impatient concerning the Avengers appearance but by God, wheres it at?

You can get it at a few different online stores. It didn't just go to BCA.

Congrats on finding the new Stuka and Corsairs! I found those weeks ago, and the Stuka on my display table is gathering dust :P I love the Stuka repaint.

for Mikeg-

The Avenger is not out yet, but very very close. In the 21st discussions thread as well as the Avenger thread, there was new information concerning the ETA date. This info came down from the very top at 21st. And it looks like they will be on the water in less than 4 weeks. I would add another 2-3 weeks for Wal-Mart systems to start to show signs of it! - Might want to consider On-line sales on this one as I am 90% certain they will get this one first.

Wow, its about time! I finally found a WC-51 at the local Walmart! They only had one, so I will have to search for the second one....

Nice vehicle, however, it is a poorer value compared to the other vehicles. I hope this doesn't start a trend.....

New BOB2 figure ?

Post by lablksmith » Sat Mar 18, 2006 3:09 pm

This may be old news but found a mess of BOB2s @ WM today. Found one U.S. figure not shown on the 21st site. The name is CPL, S.P. Sam Phares. He has the long winter coat, much longer than the vehicle driver figure.

Well - finally found the new BOB II german tankers - both sculpts. I thought they would be wearing the white camo - instead we have two different fall camo patterns. Also found the german troops - very suprised to see the swastika on the helmet.
also a bit let down that they are not much different other than a different paint job.

Found the German 104's and the new Seemans at the WM in Stockbridge GA.
Also the new BoB II figures were wiped out in about 4 days - I picked up most of them including the corp Phar in the trench coat.

I did some recon with a fellow board member this past weekend and found the new BOB2 figures and the desert Stuka and Bunker Hill Corsair. I got the only Corsair for $5, it must have been mismarked but I wasn't complaining. There are also German F-104s and Seeman 109s everywhere.

I'm not much an expert on aircraft paint schemes, but isn't that Stuka in North African paint? Thought the pilots with their winter coats looked a little silly with a desert campaign plane.

Nothing truly new in the Fresno Wal Marts. One store got in a shipment of the ME-109Gs and silver F-104s, while all stores had decent supplies of the new 1:18 hummers and all the latest 32x tanks and planes, save for the S1 Zero and S2-3 Macchis. There were various OMG and Japanese figures to be had, and it sounds like the BoB figures may be making their way slowly west. I did come across some of the new Star Wars figures that are currently bringing high prices on ebay.
