Based on the images from JJD posted by Julie, it appears to have the panel over fuselage guns and area behind engine openable, or at least a separate part. these engines were very tightly contained by the cowling. to reduce drag. part of why they overheated at first. Making this part removable...

Perhaps this means this will have the typical exhaust stains aft of the cowling? I hope so, that is usually missing on the prebuilt models. I am hopeful the upcoming F6F Hellcat will have this. those aircraft would stain and singe the exhaust areas as soon as they were first fired up...... Not...

Received my JJD Voss Triplane. I have noted how much improvement goes into each new plane released. My first was the Luke Spad. very nice. a show piece already. But since then and my new Voss Fokker F1. I noted: the gun sights are thinner finer and more accurate. the small details are more...

I've always liked the Andrea figure of Teddy Roosevelt. So Attica artists were willing to do one for me. Very nice. I had them shape the hat a little better. the original figure has it all wrong. Colonel Roosevelt had hats, that were not turned up in front, but at the sides. this is closer...

Sorry to break in on the Napoleon discussion. But i wanted to ask the TG people: I think the Korean war figures are magnificent! and I have already pre-ordered a set of 4. However, looking at the pics of the officer. I assume his side arm is a US 1911 pistol. from the back of figure(underneath...

Further review of the Prototype model John has previewed, has no windows behind cockpit. so this means it is a later production F6F-5 Hellcat. Haven't seen any of these painted in three color paint scheme. At least not those on Carriers. most on front lines, off carriers had the all around dark...

Ah, I see VF-8 Flew tri-colored F6F's off the Bunker Hill for a short time.... It's possible to be part of the Bunker Hill history and have that paint scheme.

A Bunker Hill version would be nice, but I'd like to see one of these in the tri-color paint scheme. Then i'd have the early Wildcat, the tri-color mid war paint job, and the Bunker Hill Corsair in the late war dark blue. Perhaps do a Bunker Hill Hellcat for the second release?

These are very nice! Here is the other paint scheme.

Just received a long awaited figure from Attica Miniatures. superb service and painting here. The Andrea- British 24th Infantry at Isandalwana. Beautiful painting, excellent details and base. They made the ammo box empty. which I thought would add to the visual hint of running out of ammunition...

Absolutely "YES". I will be getting the P-51. and the figures are very detailed and accurate depictions. I can arrange them in locations and positions that don't show the same sizeness, And I kind of like the idea that I could shave some of the base off the bottom to get some variation?? I look...

Looking at the many archival shots of P-51's and ground crew. these figures look to be accurate for size, but the entire group of soldiers are tall individuals. I noted a period photo of a ground crew standing by the nose of their Mustang, and all shoulders were below the leading edge of the...

This is wonderful news! The image of the kite face artwork on the Voss Dr1 is THE iconic detail about his Triplane. Very happy, John has adjusted his iterations before. A part of my devotion to his product, besides the absolute integrity, beauty, thought, and attention to detail, is his...

I too asked John if he could do the Voss, Dr1. VERY happy to see it's coming. I also like that he chose the green cowling for his rendition. However the kite face looks a bit too Thomas the Tank Engine happy to me. the eyebrows need to be pointed and more serious, and the eye shapes around...

Yes, I have to agree, I have only one figure so far, but intend to order another very soon. Ivan is a great person to deal with. these are excellent figures painted by some of the best artists. Prices are reasonable.

Nice display. the rocket ordinance team will give it that additional clutter. I need to add some deck spotting crews and the second set of rocket guys. Since I can only afford one plane and one deck section, I'm going to pass on the tractor. For now. I noted that the fully up-folded wings on...

Actually, I may have to expand on my last post. the rockets shown in your pics could be the 2.25" SCAR rockets, OR, they could 3.5" Aircraft rockets. the 3.5" rockets were also smaller than the 5" HVAR's. they weighed 80 lbs, and the SCAR rockets weighed 43lbs. the 3.5" rockets were for anti...

Very nice pics. I love these. the officer standing on wing installing those rockets has a 2.25 Inch Sub Caliber Air Rocket. These were a smaller warhead weapon, and each weighed about 80lbs. the HVAR rockets that JJD has depicted are larger and a heavier warhead. These weigh about 134lbs. So...

Yes, this is the pic that got me thinking. And the one I sent was the more detailed one. I think JJD has done a superb job on these items and I have them all. so not making these stands would not slow my ardor. Just bringing it up as a good additional part of a set. the stand and two ordinance...

Very excited about the HVAR Rocket handlers. I already have the set with cart rockets and the two crewmen holding a rocket lower. My question is this: the guy up on the wing in this new set. a one handed perched grab of the long heavy rockets seems too difficult. any pics showing this? I have...
