saw the huey at local 7e...

i wish they'd attached the rotors to the aloutte as they did for the huey...

jet ranger spotted at local 7e...

ebay?

wah... open this thread today wonder why so many posts. rupa rupanya ini macam. no need jelly la... everybody is unique. likewise, people's collection will be different depending on preference. some wanna collect only selected models, some wanna collect the entire helicopter collection... and some wanna collect other models. sharing is caring. stay cool...

aiya... don't like that la. we all adults, right? i think elvinkim don't wanna drive all the way only to find out allscript's office close. i also ask before this question many times (eg is allscript's office open this saturday? what issues already at their office?). comrade mikesas1992... chill bro! in life, we have no control over what others do or say but we certainly have control over how we react. i think there's a post on allscript's addres at the beginning of the thread and its office hours also... but even i'm not too sure myself. whatever it is, stay cool, guys... and 'njoy your collection!

agree with u, bro... but the rotors are part of the awesomeness of choppers. looks castrated without their rotors...

as a standalone, imho that the detolf is more stable than the billy bookcase simply due to its centre of gravity. billy bookcases can easily topple forward if not secured to the wall (the hxd dimensions of the billy bookcase is 202x28 compared to detolf's 163x37). the grooves holding the glass siding for the detolf are pretty deep and imho secure but being an almost all glass construction, it is obviously more fragile than the billy bookcases. there are pros and cons of both that one has to consider. detolf would suit items that are best appreciated all around, whereas billy can be used for items that are best appreciated when viewed from a certain angle. it may cost slightly more but the modularity of billy bookcases allows for seamless additions and corner displays. i wouldn't say one is superior over the other... depends on individual requirements. as for me, generally the 1/100s that have lesser details are confined to the billy bookcases whereas the highly detailed 1/72s are given the vip detolf treatment.

correction: detolf uses tempered glass

delivery is rm75 per trip. detolf can fit into most cars but you gotto place it diagonally from rear right to the reclined front passenger seat. a safe bet would be no more than two units. it weighs approx 40kgs, but the glass pack is the heavier of the lot.

but no, i don't work for ikea...

don't underestimate the space in your saga, bro. i've seen ppl stuff bigger items in their myvi

plenty at allscript's office la, bro. you guys must really love the thrill of hunting, eh?

but it seems now the free gifts different from when the collection first started?

wah... that means the "old" free gifts considered "limited edition" already...

today is 2nd sat bro... they didn't open. only 1st and 3rd sat.

ah-64d nicer... imho. by the way, apaches have been dispatched to iraq...

i think the resources are at the very first page of this thread and so far the collection has followed the uk collection exactly. anyway, here's the helicopter collection malaysia link: http://helicopter-magazine.com/mal/models

you're most welcome. looks like this helicopter giving all of us space constrain problems

but actually hor, i notice most of the later models are rather small that's why initially wanted to pick and choose but decided to sapu all anyway

ya man... the sea series are damn huge. but what first got me really interested in the helicopter series was the ch149 cormorant, and of course, the crowd favourite, the apache longbow.
