Re: WotW Romans Question
Don't know if this has been posted but I saw this guy, not much off from what Markecho was asking for:markecho wrote:Hi Mike...since you have been away I just wanted to ask this question again...
Hopefully something like this will be on the horizon? Of course without the base though. I am glad your figures do not have bases!markecho wrote:Hello Mike,
I just saw BBi's/Merits display of a testudo formation at AWOH and that got me hooked!
I am in the process of ordering a bunch S1 Romans but my main army builder figure would be something similar to this:
(K&C roman)
Any chance of this pose being made in your BBi WotW Roman line? Basically it could be used to make companies/centuries of troops.
I also saw the new Series 2 preview (calvary, officer, chariot, pilum thrower, catapult) and they all look great!
Please keep up the great work...maybe throw in some minor artiuclation (ok ok...I know I won't be pushy!)
Thanks again!

Just wondering if this kind of pose will be made.
Thanks

I actually think this guy is pretty cool:

Sorry if these have been posted. Now let's hope EF 1/18 will be showing new product soon..it's getting scary..

I have a suggestion, and it is that you guys might want to consider not pestering Mike with customer service related issues in addition to questions about new product. I think this is going to result in him simply being overwhelmed trying to read this thread to the point where he may just stop in the future then no questions will be answered. Just something to think about - direct your customer service questions to the proper channels.

Hi Mike i was just wondering if there are any plans to show the new stuff iHobby Expo in October Merrit have it listed on their site.
Also any time frame on your website being updated?
I know Mike's been away for a while but i hope that means that he is either heavily involved in new releases or that he is having a good time and is clocking up the flight hours

Hello mike any plans for a 1:6 scale F-15 C since you already have the Elite Force Aviator F-15C Eagle Cockpit, and the aviator. I think that would be sweet!!!

Hi Mike Glad your still arround hope you've been having a good time clocking up the flight hours!
i was wondering if you were planning to get anything new out by the end of the year in either the TRU or Targat series? particularly that really cool new little bird and any new figs! The last four new figs and the paras really wetted our appetite and we can't wait to see more.
BTW Great accs on the last figs that were produced!! i would love to see some accessory packs to acompany the weapons packs!

Why do you say that? They never announce new stuff ahead of time..there must be something in the works...

First off hello everyone, I'm new and don't know how long I will be staying. I found you last night while doing research on my newly beloved fighter, the F-22.
It seems pretty obvious the A-10, F-14, and F-15 are the popularly demanded modern birds for production. They will almost definitely make the first cut before the Raptor but I can't emphasize enough how much I would like to see it made in all 1/18 detailed glory.
So Mike,
please try to also give the F-22 serious consideration at the roundtable. The plane simply is, state of the art military beauty at its best.
Much obliged.

We can always start a pool as to when BBI will announce thier new aircraft. For the record I'll say we will hear from Mike again on the 24th to announce same. In the evening after dinner his time his digestion will be better and so will his mood.
