| P-51B at Wal-Mart I looked for anything "airplane" in the toy section. I found a 1:48 Ultimate Soldier 21st Century Toys QP*B BEE of Duane Beeson. It's plastic. The markings are nice (good enough?). I put it together (and broke a wheel off. Gorilla Glue is bonding it). So? The plane has a story, the colors of the 4th FG fit into my collection--and it is a nice likeness of a P-51B.  I am happy. | |||||||||||||

| Re: P-51B at Wal-Mart I like both releases from 21st in 1/48 scale.. I hear that the next releases (Bf-109K and P-51B) will be improved over the initial releases..   | |||||||||||||

Very nice series II releases, Harry, thanks for the pics! I might just start a roten of Bf 109s! | ||||||||||||||

| Re: P-51B at Wal-Mart I wonder what markings will be on the next P-51? | |||||||||||||

| Re: P-51B at Wal-Mart Something I've always wondered: what is that long thing hanging down and forward from the left wing of the 109? | |||||||||||||

A drop antenna.. Fw-190s and Late model Bf-109s went to this design to have the antenna on the bottom of the aircraft rather then the top.. | ||||||||||||||

| Re: P-51B at Wal-Mart Not a big PTO fan unless it's Navy so I'll pass on the B I think, but the 109 is quite nice and I prefer it to my Armour/Mint birds until I pick them both up. | |||||||||||||

Ok, that makes sense. I had thought it might be some type of fuel over-fill, drip type thing since it seemed to under the fule tanks. Thanks for the info! | ||||||||||||||

I am kinda curious why they chose a PTE Mustang when they haven't produced a Zero, unless that is in the works??? | ||||||||||||||
