Flood of news expected

Post by tko211 » Wed Sep 05, 2007 3:14 pm

Title says it all. I am told that lots of things are going to be covered in the next few weeks. I know what some the details are and I think you guys will be pleased. Go check AREA-21 for information to this effect.

Great news on almost all fronts.

The great news is that 21C is still in the 1/6 world even if it is only weapons sets. BTW, these weapons sets are truely awesome. My 1/6 boards have nothing but raves about these weapons sets. The Tommy Gun set is terrific.

We hoped the KT and 88 would be in our hands before Christmas, looks good.

Well that covers everything.........oh, yeah, no planes.....shrug.... :roll:

I can hold off on the 1/18 scale Tiger II if they give us that 1/6 Panzer Mk IV that they have teasing us for years now. I can use it to run over that silly 4 50 cal. on the trailer jazz.

I think many of us were wondering what was up with the lack of intel from Area 21,but being in this hobby for almost 8 years I and most of us know that some things are beyond 21st's control. Stuff Happens!!!
My thanks go out to TKO who puts up with way to many questions (some unanswered :wink: ) Roy and Mr. Allen.
Bring on the news and Thanks for some of the Best products on the market!

We definitely need news on the Phantom and Fishbed. The Fishbed was the biggest surprise for me. I've never been the biggest fan of that plane, but depending on how the model turns out, I may purchase it. I just wish we knew more about it.
Shin's wishlist for 1/18 and 1/32 with retractable landing gear and more:

F-14 Tomcat, F-8 Crusader, A-4 Skyhawk, F-105 Thunderchief, A-6 Intruder, F-15C, F-15E Strike Eagle

Things have been dead for the last month so posting news about news coming I think was needed just to let everyone know it was time to start checking 21st Century Toys / AREA-21 again. -Just priming the pump is all.

I hope for more pics of the Platoon Wave and new WWII figures. On top of my wishlist are more german Fallschirmjäger. Have you guys seen for which prices they go on ebay? Man, who can afford to build a troop of them? If 21st isn't stupid they will release a new wave soon.
Also I hope for new armor.
And again - it is spelled WeHrmacht, guys...
