Sad day when 21st century Toys went out of business.

I am grateful that hobby boss revived some of them in kit form

@@americanpatriot2422 Still waiting for somebody to pick up their line of Dodge 4x4 and 6x6 trucks, but I'm guessing that the licencing is the sticking point.

​@americanpatriot2422 I did enjoy the 109 and the huey. I was not a fan of the harrier, but you can judge the ones i made they are on the channel. :)

If "making models do things they were never meant to do" is your tagline, then you're missing out on the challenge of model ships. You can't make a plastic model car drive without major modifications and a plastic model airplane will never fly because they are too heavy, but a motorized conversion of a model ship only needs a motor for the kit prop (prop shaft and batteries) and it will free sail by itself. R/C conversion only adds a transmitter/receiver, an electronic speed control and a servo for the rudder.

Thanks for the comment I do enjoy converting ships as well I have done the gato sub, flower class corvette and german s boat all ik 1/72 scale. I just don't think they are good enough for public consumption compared to the rest on UA-cam :) 😀
