Bbi Cockpit on Badcat

Post by DocTodd » Sat Apr 01, 2006 10:22 pm

Hello, I was perusing Badcat tonight and noticed under the 1:18 Bbi heading there looks like a modern well detailed cockpit. Perhaps this is a picture of their 1:6 F-15 cockpit but it is under 1:18 heading. It's probably nothing as there is no reference to it at all-but thought it might be something of interest.

It's an interesting subject, nonetheless. I dunno if I would go for 1:18 cockpits. I'd rather put the money in the whole thing.... What do you guys think??

I don't see myself buying 1:18 cockpits - besides I'd rather the companies put my money toward new planes and vehicles.

I would love for 21st Century to come up with an Avenger -- I think everybody would flip for one.

:D :lol:

Certainly would put my money in for the whole thing, though cockpits may be the answer for some of the insanely large planes, like WWII heavy bombers.

The nose section of a B-17 or B-24 would be something nice to have. Did'nt a company make a prototype awhile back of the nose section of a B-17 in 1:18? I remember seeing pics but they never made it.

Stuka- What is this you say about an Avenger? 21st Might make one? :wink:
