Listen up Chaps (and Chapesses) we have some rather spiffing news for you. Two of the Boffins at V**g Pt have been down the pub, read too many 1970's War comics model catalogues, watched too many episodes of 'allo 'allo and come up with the ultimate design in fighter aircraft.
The Toon WarPlane. This aircraft is easy to use model with movable wheels and propeller. It is easily scaled to fit most toon figures such as Dennis, Staci, Scarebear or UG!
Designed for those 'not so accurate' historical scenes, this model features textures based on real world military aircraft of the 2nd World war.
Please pay carefull attention to the information shown below and remember careless talk is openly encouraged.
[Serious Note: The humour below is relevant to the time period of the model (1940's) and design inspirations (1970's) and may not be suitable for anyone who has politically correct tendancys. No genuine offence is intended or inferred.]

The sharks mouth design was created after many hours of pyschological testing and was intended to make the enemy wet their pants. And The White Wall Tyres just look really cool.

Brilliant, lol.
Now, maybe someone should build some toon tanks. I wonder who can do that?

Graeme - sending you an email.
Which is very good news for Dark Anvil fans.
Just waiting for some shopping cart codes and the new models will be ready for sale.
Though I'm finding it hard not to stick your sheep in one of the planes :)
Reckon a Toon sheep with googles and an evil look would be incredibly silly and incredibly good fun :)

hehe.. these came out better than I ever expected. Maybe it is time for the toon armed forces.
Also a note here.... the landing gear and wheels can be hidden if you want a sleeker design:)
