I have a big order waiting in my shopping cart. Just waiting for the storage trays in the hopes of saving a bit of shipping. Hopefully everything else won't sell out before then!

Can hardly wait!

Col. your site is still showing the WWI two seater bases and the smoke/flame markers are STILL out of stock.

Any timeline as to when these will be back in stock?
I have two metal RE8's that are in desparate need of bases.

I would also like to get a couple pair of smoke/flame markers...

**Oberst Hajj** · 11-09-2010 02:31

I'm having supplier issues right now. I'm guessing the first part of December for everything to com back in stock.

**Boney10** · 11-09-2010 10:27

Hi Col, with your post above in mind would you prefer to wait until Dec to make an order or will you take orders now and supply when in stock?
I too am after a few pairs of smoke & flame markers

I should know by the end of the week if the new supplier can meet my needs. If they can, I'll open up "back order" orders and just ship them when they come in. I just don't want to take orders for them now and find out the new supplier can't do them.

Anything new about Flak Markers?

I just finished two mobile AA trucks (by Skytrex) and it would be fun to get more AA stuff as 3D.

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-04-2011 09:46

The design is all done, just waiting on the laser to free up to start cutting all the acrylic stuff.

**Jäger** · 02-04-2011 09:56

Sounds great! Waiting for pictures.

**MayorJim** · 02-05-2011 18:34

Flak markers? Didn't know those might be in the works...sounds wonderful!...

Keith...in post #1 here you mention that the 1/144 bomber bases may be discontinued...are those the same bases we'd use for 2 the seaters?

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-07-2011 18:15

Here is a photo of the prototype flak marker. It was to large so it has been scaled down. Other than that, it looks the same.

No, the two seater stands are still in production. The 1/144 bomber stands were for WWII and have been discontinued.

**usmc1855** · 02-08-2011 04:38

Do the Flak markers come with a stand?

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-08-2011 04:42

Yes, they will come with a stand as pictured above. The altitude ring will be changed slightly to reflect that it is for flak and not a plane. They will ship disassembled though.

Sulzer · 02-08-2011 09:28

Col. Hajj, I was wanting to inquire about an update on when the Aerodrome store was going to be restocked. I read where it was hopefully going to be sometime in December. Has it already been done and I just caught the tail end of it?

I have just recently gotten into WoW, as in a week ago, and even more recently found this great site. I am just hankering to get my hands on as much material and resources that I can. The extra effort that you, and this community, has put in to advance the game is inspiring. Any info would be appreciated. I am just waiting with anticiaption to fill up my shopping cart.

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-08-2011 09:44

Welcome to the game and the site. I'm hoping for the end of this month or sometime in March for all the acrylic products. The Hangars and bags I will have back in stock next week for sure.

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-08-2011 09:50

I updated the first post.

Outstanding! Put about six to eight of 'em on pre-order for me.

Keith...these look really great!! Thanks for the quick reply as well...

"Here is a photo of the prototype flak marker. It was to large so it has been scaled down. Other than that, it looks the same."

Too large?? Looks just about right to me...(could actually be a bit larger and I'd be fine with that too)

Like it :-)
Does seem a bit large, wouldnt want it interfering with the planes movement (until it goes boom!) Whats the size of it now?

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-14-2011 04:35

The stand is the same size, but the tinted part of the flak burst was reduced to 18mm wide by 25mm tall.

**Boney10** · 02-14-2011 05:27

Hmmm now they do look good but where are all the extra flight pegs coming from ?

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-14-2011 05:46

I know not everyone buys every single mini they put out, but I personally have over 200 of the pegs.... I never ever use all those to put planes on the table. Heck I even sold 100 of them to someone last year.

So the answer is; "self-supply"...no problemo on my part...they still look great!

**tuladin** · 02-14-2011 14:07

I have to admit that I went and bought a couple of planes that I didn't need just to get the pegs to make gimbals. I'll probably get a few more for the archie pegs - which I'll be ordering as soon as they're available!

**MayorJim** · 02-27-2011 14:08

Any updates on the flak markers??

**Oberst Hajj** · 02-27-2011 17:39

They'll be here with everything else. Hoping they will be ready in March.

**Jäger** · 07-02-2011 00:43

We had a good game yesterday. Allied fighter group tried to bust German balloons, which were protected by fighters and heavy AA fire. Any new updates about Ack-Ack Markers?

**Oberst Hajj** · 07-02-2011 00:52

As a matter of fact, the new pre-production prototype is being cut this coming week. As long as it checks out, look for them in a couple of weeks.

**Niclas** · 07-02-2011 03:08

Herr Oberst,

What is the current status of the bomber stands?
There's some stuff about that in the earlier part of this thread, but those parts are quite old.
For me, bomber card size bases for regular size pegs would probably work as I think that I'll be mainly using non-metal minis and I that the regular ball bearings should hold those.

/Niclas

**Oberst Hajj** · 07-02-2011 05:15

Niclas, the Gotha stands were already made, but a laser malfunction caused alignment issues. The replacement stands have been cut, but I don't know if they have been mailed out yet or not (might be waiting for other products to be ready to ship as well). So, the Gotha stand is imminent. The other bombers I've not messed with just yet as I don't have a model of them to test the stand on.

**Niclas** · 07-02-2011 05:39

Great!

Mainly Gothas I'll be needing them for (to begin with anyway).

**Flying Officer Kyte** · 07-07-2011 05:37

Just a thank you Herr Oberst. The new flight stands landed here in Blighty this morning. I am already busy adding them to my bases and balloons. Quality is fine as usual. Next the Gothas.
Rob.
