                        Jon,

                        Thanks for the scoop on Wal-Mart. Went last night but they only had a bunch of P-47Ds (about 20 of them @ $39.99 each). Will keep a look out.

                        Polyphenus,

                        Got the Blackhawk from Toys 'R Us yesterday. Thanks for the tip.

                        All,

                        Ended up getting the Blackhawk ($60.00 each) and the AH-6 ($19.99 each). For those who haven't gotton the Blackhawk yet, it's HUGE and takes up a lot of space. Will hang it from the ceiling in my office. Thanks for the tips in locating them.

                        Carl

                        Marke,

                        Yup, they're out. I've seen a few. Other than the canopy problems, they look GREAT!

                        From what I've seen, the only problem with the Super Cobra is the front canopy opens on BOTH sides. Don't know about the rear. Oh well, can't have everything. Just another bit of surgery to perform when I get mine!

                        ALL:

                        Check http://www.badcataviation.com for the super sized AH-1W. It's listed under 21st Century Toys but showing not scheduled for release until Jan 04. The site lists the Cobra as 1:6 scale but I'm guessing it's a typo. It's in modern colors and depicts HMLA-167. Looks pretty good.

                        It would be nice to see a CH-46E and CH-53E in 1:18 as well.

                        I gather that you live in the San Diego area by your posts. Which hobby store do you frequent around these parts? I'm tired of looking around Target, Wal Mart, etc.

                        hey guys, I saw a bunch of the Cobra at the Wal Mart here in Georgia. They had about 10 of them , $40.00 .They look way cool! I havent seen the pache yet, but then again I havent been to Toys R US in a while. Not sure what the Cobra is going for on Ebay, but if anyone wants me to pick one up for them, Id be happy to. But Id imagne theyll hit your stores soon. Check the Super Walmarts, thats where these were. The local regular Walmart doesnt have them yet, they just have the P-47s.

                        Polyphenus...

                        I really haven't been to a hobby store around here in a while. I used to go to Discount Hobby Warehouse off Convoy St (between Armour and Balboa) but I think they went out of business. There is another place off Convoy and Armour called "Hobby People" but I haven't been in there yet.

                        I usually buy models on-line, but the last four models I bought, I bought in Singapore (recent business trip). Got a very good deal off the exchange rate. ~$27 US for Academy's 1/35 MH-60G Blackhawk.

                        Sorry I couldn't give you more...

                        I just bought my AH-1W today! Wal-Mart has 3 on the shelf (almost bought 2). The "pilot" figure is not really accurate, in fact I'm not sure what he's supposed to look like. If 21st Century puts out a group of helo crews, that'll round out their helo collection.
