Small Scale Military Headquarters

Wait...wasn't the more "toned down" JSI VF-84 Cat referred to as the "Squiggle Cat"????

I have two 1/18 AutoArt die-cast sports cars, a BMZ Z7 and Jaguar XKSS. They're incredibly beautiful replicas.

I know, I know... But $35 for one pilot??? Yikes. I'll CONSIDER the unpainted version at this point. I will say I spent $40 on a 1/16 Panzer Commander, for my HengLong Tiger I, but that was the most exquisite resin figure I've laid my hand on and sculpted by a Hollywood special effects professional ...

Nope, I'm not buying one and don't plan to buy another. My original SpotCat (original landing gear) has been repainted and sitting on Pizzaguy's lighted stand.

Hey JSI & Merit, seen any F-14 pilots lately???

Picked up Horizon Hobby's Phoenix R/C simulator today with the Spektrum DX5e.

Very happy since the weather is so crummy this time of year.

Stay safe Stuka. I just toured the DMZ about a week and a half ago while on TDY, spooooooooky.....

Run around yard with said parachute in hand. Have a buddy chase you with a can of spray laquer....

Who can pass on the mystique of the original Flying Wing Horten ? The closest we ever got was the one Hasbro was working on for Indiana Jones toys. Which was cancelled and wasn't even a Horten. It would have been out of scale and inaccurate (of course) but cool nonetheless. Gets my vote too. I have...

Always been a huge fan of the Horten. One of these days I'll get to see her at the Garber facility.

It'll be done in Spinach colors though, keeping it consistent with the Spot/SquiggleCat

Now that is friggin' awesome!!!

i think the best one is the HUFF Agreed. The first time I remember the Huff was visiting my father in Florida in 1981 when I was six years old when he had built a 1/48 Hasagawa F-86. Flash forward to the Time-Life books of the early 1980's and the volume "Fighting Jets" with the artwork of Thompson...

Why are these two F-86's so special? I got the latest Historic Aviation that has Mig Mad Marine listed for sale along with the NKA Mig-15. What scale are they and where did you see it? Any links? JOC Doh, nevermind, sorry. It was Mitch's Squitch. But Historic Aviation does still have them in their ...

TD,
Is that the Hooben T-55?

Beautiful work Matthew!

They look like hydroplanes

Snake, Thank you much for the compliments. Yes, I did all the painting on the figure. The figure was bought from coloradominiatures.com for roughly $45 USD. The figure is full-length, but used a razor saw to cut him below the waist to fit into the Heng Long Tiger. I'm still trying to track down the ...

Those 1/16 figures are beautiful made. Great pics!! Thanks PB, they're probably the most beautiful resin figures I've ever worked with. Pricey...yes. I actually had to chop his left arm off at the elbow to get his arm resting on the cupola since S&T Products forgot to include the other optional arm...

S&T Productions are the way to go my friend (IF you can find them). This is the commander on my HL 1/16th Tiger I.

Would love to see a PAC-75

Congrats there bud!!!

I'd love to see Hal Marr's F-8E in 1/18th, but that's my pet wish. I know it probably wouldn't generate that much interest. "When you're out of F-8's, you're out of fighters" The Komet, priced well and with a pilot figure and tow dolly, would be awesome. I'd love to see a Kettenkrad with it too (I'm...

Hang in there JOC. Took me forever to get a F/A-18 and still paid a good chunk of change for it.
