I’ve bought two of the static heng longs (pzIII and Sherman) and they both have the electric motors and gear boxes in them. It appears that all I need is to drop in a radio and boom, bob’s your uncle!
True, because they have put out several sets that are in my wheel house. I really would love to see them do some regular old knights of the round table dudes and dudettes or Julius Caesar and some legionnaires that I could troop build a small “Legion”
I have the 21st Century PzIV RC version and I recently bought a Heng Long?1/16 PzIII version non-RC static model that I like. I’m not a huge SCALE nazi 😉 so using 1/16 with my 1/18 doesn’t bother me. I would pay out for something on my dream list but not a PzIV. A couple tanks I’d like to see...
I’m not really stoked for sci-fi figures with oversized bludgeon/melee weapons. Besides modern and WW2 I prefer historical figures. Boss fight studios would sell me more product if they didn’t lean so hard on combat Wood sprites 😉
Yea, but I’m still on the fence. If I could only hold the final product in my hands and examine it. The price seems good compared to other custom vehicles I’ve seen.
I got a email from Kickstarter about a new project by ZICA Toys for a 1/18 scale military vehicle called Nightwolf. Has anyone here backed it yet? The price is $60 plus $20 shipping and is only for the US, no international sales/shipping being offered. The choice of vehicle colors is black, dark...
No, I was only willing to go about half of the winning bid. I would love to have bought it but it wasn’t meant to be. I find it best to decide beforehand what your top bid is going to be an then stop there regardless. I’m happy I didn’t allow myself to get caught up in the bidding frenzy 🙂
So, I thought I would bid for this tonight but apparently I wasn’t even in the same league as the winner of this auction. Boy I’d love to have one of these 😎
It’s probably a good thing we never lived near a airport. My dad had a rocket come down on the top of the commissary at Fort Sill on Sunday when it was closed and I had to climb up there and retrieve the rocket while he kept a lookout for MP’s 😐 Those were the good old days.
You wouldn’t believe it but my brother and I experimented with Estes rockets taped to this starfigher once. Fortunately it landed in a fresh plowed field and the tape came off without messing up the original stickers. Stupid kids 😉
I found replacement parts for my old Buck Rogers Starfighter on eBay a couple years ago. The guy printed most of the easily broken and lost parts such as landing gear and nose cones/rear engine thrusters while the figure is a kit bashing of two different Star Wars figures.
A siege with miniature trebuchets hurling gasoline soaked fireballs at the defenders 🙂 When I was a wee lad we’d build stone forts for our little green army men (not as elaborate) and hurl smaller rocks at each other’s forts until all of the other guys men were killed or he surrendered.
