Already have those hanging from my ceiling. And quite impressive I might say. The B-2 is hanging just over my head with the bomb bay doors in the open position underneath as I'm writing this.

All joking aside, a 1/18 Blackbird would be 1820mm long and 940mm across.
On it's tail, only 180mm shy of two metres high...
Would anyone seriously be in for something that big?

That's the one.
the problem with trying to produce that design is the exposed framework. the canopy could very easily be done as a vacform. And the workings are easily enough replicated.
I could scratchbuild it in less than five days i reckon, as a one-off, but making a master pattern would use up a bit more time.
Ironically, the SR-71 would be easier to make and produce as a kit... And perhaps even at a similar price, lol.

You can make Spetnanz soldiers by ordering the BBI SEAL and painting him olive drab. Then get some 21st century tanker helmets, remove microphrone and paint it completely olive drab and glue it on the head. Then give him some boots by painting legs and feet perpendiqually black. Spray with dullcoat. Arm with ak-47 can be done with GI Joe Red Star fig also. For Soviet Afgan troop use Red Star. Paint desert tan except for boots and where white and blue in neck. Give Marine BBI boonie cap save and put on or use Indiania Jones or 21 Century Nazi officer cap paint desert tan apply red star. Can use beret and paint bright blue. Spray with dullcoat remove all accessories to Red Star before painting.

A PT-76 would be awesome, as would the X-15!
BTW the X-1 is available in 1:18 for about $40 to $60 from Pegasus
They do have remote controlled T54 and T55 tanks! Google 1:18 remote controlled tanks. They are made out of of China between the 50-200 dollar per unit range. The seller is offline. Scroll down and you will see the 2. They are in 1:16 made by Hangzhou Hooben Models. My advice just keep googling 1:18 remote controlled tanks scroll down and click and research and hopefully one will pop up since both web pages are down

here is the link to the 1:16th Hooben T55 RC Tank. You have to put it make it from scratch. http://arkmodel.en.alibaba.com/prod.../r_c_tanks_1_16_T55_russia_tank_in_stock.html
I've been looking at getting one of those 55's and an elefant from them. I've been staying away from them though as I can picture myself trying to army build those T-55's
