Congratulations to Bigman!!! His 1/48 Tamiya Wildcat is now a part of the Tamiya Museum in Japan.

Congratulations as well to Highlander (Mene of the Baguio Chapter), whose Tamiya P-47 also went on display in Japan!

You make us proud, guys!!!

Jim,

Flash message: We will be revising the entire Gambier Bay AirWing daw. Youll have to build 18 Wildcats in the exact configuration as your Tamiya kit.

Plus 8 of the Avengers. :-)

I knew it! Jim owns a shrinking device! No wonder his works look too real. LOL.
