That's so cool! The "Grumman TBF/TBM Avenger" is my favorite American aircraft introduced during WW2.

I can't believe this is a toy with figures...It's Art - It is incredibly detailed and just so fun. Wow, thanks for sharing. 😳

Wow! Awesome. And should I say... thanks a lot. Crap. Now I am about to become addicted to this series. Already hunting for them... Yep. Really, really cool. Oh boy.

I got to see the prototype of this aircraft at the NY Toy Fair after getting invited by 21st Century Toys to attend. What a great model! The only drawback to the model is the wing droop. That said, all wing folders in the 1:18 scale have the same problem, whether it is the BBi Hellcat, Corsairs or the Avenger. You won't find these ever made again unfortunately.

The thing on the wing is called a slot. It doesn't move. If they extend and retract, they are called slats. Very cool model!

It is a fixed slat.

@ 16:26 the joy stick is mounted backwards. Otherwise, a wonderful model!!! 😊

Interesting to note the landing gear oleo scissors face forward on the Avenger. Typically the scissors face aft. Thought that was an oversight on the part of the manufacturer, but nope! That's the way they face. From an engineering pov, the scissors facing aft would be protected somewhat from debris by the oleo and strut. Not sure why the design decision to place the scissors in front of the oleo where they would be more exposed to debris and fowling.

I wish they still made these big model aircraft. I have the huey gunship and the kiowa attack helicopter. Love to have this one as well.

I have the complete set of Flight 19! Plus I have an extra No.28 for a future repaint. I have 2 others, one being the white and grey "Atlantic scheme" and the Blue Tri-color "Pacific scheme"! The wing fold is the obvious models weak point, but if you display them wings folded they look like the real thing!!

i wish 21 century toys still existed. you can find some of their products but they are so expensive it sucks and its not worth it unless you REALLY want to get your hands on them.
