I was hoping somebody was talking about some new bbi release, but upon opening this thread, a plume of dust came out of the monitor. I also thought I saw a tumble weed floating around here somewhere....

Oh well.....

I think the BBI R&D team are down in the shipping department filling all those backorders for the Zero...

...or they didn't make it back from their undercover spy ops into 21c held territory...

...or they are planning a takeover of the cargo ship that has the Avengers, and package them in brown boxes and sell em off ebay...

You can get the Airborne at Goodstufftogo.net for $30 for all 6. You can get the Germans at ToyFederation I believe.

I really wish one of the forum members who is also a retailer could shed some light on what happened to Dragon in 1:18?

A good place to find the 1/18 dragon figures for cheap is the model wharehouse. I have ordered from them several times and have had no problems.

I'm curious why this thread got unstickied from the main page but there's two basically redundant 21st/Wal-Mart threads... Are we going pro-21st only here?

Post by **aferguson** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 9:55 pm

no, because nothing really new is happening with BBI right now. 21c has the new mustang out, plus new BOB figures and other stuff immanent.

The WM thread is pretty much a permanent sticky by popular request....personally i'd like to burn it.

Jesse James · Post by **Jesse James** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 3:08 am

I'm for that, 2 21st threads (essentially) seems odd... BBI's thread is still getting posts.

I was just bustin' your nuts on it though, no big deal really.

I thought maybe WM was taking over the boards here too! Yikes. They're an unstoppable killing machine! heh

Don't know if this has been posted but I see you can get some of the bbi CC stuff at Goodstuff for those who can't get it at Target.

I'm here at Fort Rucker for a two week school and just saw a small vendor
next to the PX who has a bunch of the BBi Little bird and Apaches in the cardboard boxes with the Sears stickers on them. Just like the F-18 we saw awhile back.

VR,
Andy

As many pages as that thing has now, I'd say burn it and start over with a clean slate.

I found five of the BBI P-51D Mustangs in the "Killer" paint scheme. I picked one up, and it is a great looking model. I had not been to TRU in awhile. I was hoping they might have a BBI zero there.

I will apologize in advance as this has allready been discussed but on the back ot the Elite Force army WW2 card it says, right under Collect them all. 4weapons sets also available. The numbers for these sets are different from the soldier numbers. Anyone got any information on this?
Says Ground division support weapon #21276, Special tactical support weapon #21775, close quarter weapons #21162 and assault weapons #21160. The soldier card numbers go from #21403 to #21408.

digger · Post by **digger** » Wed Apr 05, 2006 5:45 pm

I believe those are the numbers for the older weapons sets..someone could probably confirm that..

But I thought all the old weapons sets were for modern soldiers. Why would they put these on WW2 cards

digger · Post by **digger** » Wed Apr 05, 2006 6:58 pm

You may also notice on your card it does not say WWII. Anywhere.
So not that surprising the other weapons sets would be referenced just like they would be on any other card.

Look what I found today at TRU

<a href="http://img235.imageshack.us/my.php?imag ... 1207mr.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img235.imageshack.us/img235/7100 ... 7mr.th.jpg" border="0" alt="Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us" /></a>

I don't know if anybody else has seen them yet, so if not, then the BBI Old Crow P-51 repaint is out. I found it at two stores today that had restocked with more Marine's Dream Corsairs and Killer Mustangs. No green Zero or WW2 figures yet.

Wow, and it looks spot-on correct too, no 1:24 scale markings! I won't see that here, though....

-Ski

Post by **aferguson** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 5:20 pm

wasn't Old Crow a P-51B? Anyway, the repaint Korean Corsair may start showing up soon too.

pokeyjtc · Post by **pokeyjtc** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 9:18 pm

Bud Anderson flew two Mustangs, a P-51B, then a P-51D that started out painted in the OD green over gray before being stripped to bare metal.
