At that time I was trying to camo paint a playmobil spaceship to act as a troop carrier for my gijoe and action force...
It's the revenge of a 29 years old kid armed with a credit card :)
I have that Playmobil spaceship... Pretty cool from a child's point of view. Never thought of painting it cammo, however :wink:

1:18 because of its wow factor, the moving parts, detail... so on. Classic scale and bad to the bone!

1:32 now becase the molds don't suck! the opportunity for more risky subjects (macchi)
etc. and becase I am crossing my fingers for future coolness like bombers... Imagine a B-17! Price is also kinda nice. I don't care who you are or what you collect 15.00 for a 1:32 scale plane is AWESOME!

Anyone who has not yet bought a Zero in this scale, really should. It is really a very nice model.
