With the recent announcement from Mike saying BBI will me showing new items at comic con (which i am assuming will include some new vehicles of some kind), Jason of AT saying they have many projects on the go for this year, and currently being in the middle of a 'tidal wave' of new information from 21c, it seems to me that we are building towards something pretty major.
Either a huge bunch of new toys is about to dump in our laps over the next six months or the biggest fizzle in 1/18 history (granted it's not a long history).
However, my trick knee tells me we're in for quite a ride over the next several months.

i never met an airplane i didn't like...

I'm betting on your trick knee!! I'm hoping that 21C and bbi and AT and others will try and out-do each other in 1:18!!
All I know is that I'm probably going to have to get a 2nd and 3rd job to pay for it all!!

Yeah what sort of tricks does your knee do?

The only trick I know is using my credit card without opening my wallet.

I am hoping and praying that BBI will finally release a 1/18th scale F6F Hellcat. Hopefully at Comic Con I will get my answer and not just a "wait and see".
I WANT A HELLCAT!!!!!!!!!

A Hellcat would be sweet! Can anyone confirm that there is an F6F Hellcat in the works?

Wow, that is nice. I just hope the BBI Hellcat does not follow in the footsteps of the 21st Century Avenger.

Yes, I would welcome a Hellcat and Especially an A-10. I think the first company out with the A-10 will be something special-particularly if it is done well like the previous Bbi releases have been.

Please remember that the Hellcat protoype is several years old. Who knows if and when it will ever issue. That said, bbi has always been known for surprises!

BBI may be testing the water with this one. I hope not. The Hellcat would look very nice tearing up the sky with a couple of Zeros. Unfortunately as Teamski mentioned, this prototype has been around for a while.
