Questions for those with a JSI Spot cat
I need to know, 1. Will the pieces detach easily? Or are the pieces, like the tail fins, too breakable? I'd like to know because space might be an issue and I want to see if I can put it all back in its box. 2. Due to the many qc issues what do you guys do to take care of this notorious piece? 3. Un...

Re: Super News from Al-go on new venture
Al-go announced today that they are going to partner with a "unnamed for now" major toy manufacturer to produce 1/18 AC's and vehicles You might actually have an idea worth considering given Hasbro has partnered with smaller toy companies in the past to make military AC. Below is a Maisto toy with ...

TOY HUNTERS cable special on collecting now a series! 1:18?
Toy Hunters commanded half-a-million viewers despite a pilot episode premiering on a tough time slot; graveyard shift / late Sunday night. The great success of its pilot convinced Travel Channel to green-light Toy Hunters as a full on cable tv series! The 1:18 hobby can use more exposure + customer...

Re: SpaceShipTwo possibly 1/18
are you sure that's the toy and not just some display item? If it is the toy it would be rather huge (over 7 foot span) and if limited edition will probably cost a few thousand dollars. I was taken aback in disbelief too. Yet seeing the larger 7 ft wing versus the smaller roughly 6 foot adult nearb...

Something for space fans. UK Toy Fair unveiled a limited edition toy = Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo. CEO Richard Bronson of Virgin, a confessed sci-fi fan of the "Star Wars generation," is making the spaceplane a reality. SpaceShipTwo stands to become the first "spaceline" to bring paying passenge...

Re: Red Tails...
What would the prequel be? Movie's lead role, officer A.J. Bullard (Terrence Howard) may be a homage to E.J. Bullard of the WW1 Layfeyette Escadrille's lone black pilot. Coinciding the Red Tails prequel to the 100th anniversary of WW1, will most definitely work well, in 2 to 6 years (the 4-year-spa...

Re: Red Tails...
Looks like the movie is moving along.Likely reaching $40 million by this weekend. That is near the $58 million production cost. There's still more costs involved to compensate. So keep spreading the word, for everyone to check it out, so we can see many more movies (of and beyond Red Tails) in the f...

if you want more WW2 movies to start popping up, this movie needs to do well. it could spawn more movies about WW2. I believe there's a lot riding on this film.

Yeah. Looks like we're going to have to see if the film is a success. Not even Star Wars toys appeared the same year of its own film year's release. I'm hoping its successful enough to get maybe just 1 plane (store x-mas exclusive) in retail. Retailers like big box exclusives + expanding the toy ais...

Nothing said (regarding product) just less than 1 month away from movie debut. Hopefully this does big numbers. So by the time the Blu-ray comes next Christmas; maybe a store will do an exclusive for their Christmas toy aisles. Walmart, Target, Toys R US, Kohls, or even Best Buy all do exclusives wi...
