"Good Morning Everyone!
What an absolutely thrilling week we had! The new Algo/21st Century line of 1:32 airplanes arrived on Thursday. It's been nearly five lonnnnngggg years since we've seen the kind of old-fashioned excitement we experienced late this week. The packing stations were full of outgoing boxes, the warehouse became delightully messy, and the telephones started ringing! We talked with old friends we hadn't spoken to in years, like Mike, Dana, Steve, and many, many others. That's the wonder of airplanes, they bring people together. The 1:32 scale P-51 Shangri La and Red 19 Fw-190, are a big hit.
But we have an important mission still to accomplish guys. I've had several meetings with Algo/21st Century's owner and one thing is apparent-- Future releases depend on the success of these first two airplanes. If these two 1:32 birds sell quickly, more 1:32 planes, as well as 1:18 projects are waiting in the wings. Fledgling Algo (run by the founder of the former 21st Century Toys) needs our full support if we are ever to see the large variety of aircraft and tanks once provided by 21st Century Toys, again. Even if you don't collect 1:32 or already have these planes, please do the collecting community a HUGE FAVOR by purchasing a couple of these airplanes. As a extra boxed set, a Christmas gift, greasing-up the boss, a Red Cross or church raffle donation . . . you get the idea. I'm really, really excited after talking to Algo about future projects but all the talk is a moot point if these trial balloons don't soar like eagles. Please help us out here, guys!!
Bad Cat is doing our part in this equation by offering FREE USA SHIPPING for all orders over $50. A 1:32 Fw-190 and a P-51 purchased together meets this standard. Coupon Code BADCAT5 will take another 5% off the top with no sales tax except in California. We hope all our readers can help make this happen, too!
Thanks for reading and Blue Skies
