| Re: HM 1/32 SBD almost here??
Judging from their size, they're probably too young to get in a bar. Actually, this SBD looks great-- I can't wait to get mine. I am hoping Aim-Higher Jets is receiving their shipment as well. As for the size of the pilots, it doesn't bother me as I probably won't put them in the airplane anyway. | ||||||||||||||

| Re: HM 1/32 SBD almost here?? Maybe the 1:32 Corsair pilots from 21st toys will fit in the cockpit ok... JP | |||||||||||||

I don't have a 1/32 Corsair pilot handy, but here's a BBI 1/32 Phantom pilot vs HM 1/32 Dauntless pilot. Add a helmet and g-suit and the HM pilot doesn't seem that far off.  | ||||||||||||||

| Re: HM 1/32 SBD almost here?? Maybe the crew figures sit too low in their seats? Is that a parachute pack I see on the HM pilot? | |||||||||||||

| Re: HM 1/32 SBD almost here??
Yes, the Dauntless crew has fanny packs. And now that I think about it, the chute pack makes the HM pilot look taller (in his seated position next to the Phantom pilot) than he would otherwise. | ||||||||||||||

| Re: HM 1/32 SBD almost here?? Well maybe he needs a couple of Chicago area phone books too... Definitely is a lot lower down than he should be based upon this photo  photographer unknown | |||||||||||||

| Re: HM 1/32 SBD almost here?? You can never go wrong with these Dauntless crews at your disposal!  Sorry for the off-topic...sometimes I just can't help myself!  | |||||||||||||
