Blue Box Toys International Limited, or BBi, has been very prominent in the world of 1:18 scale toys, especially during 2008, when they were prolific at retail. The attention to detail is admirable when it came to land vehicles and aircraft but it was their main weakness in action figures. Very forgivable. For once, Joes can, then, have better scaled and realistic military motor pool, from M1A1 main battle tanks, to Apache helicopters and Fighter-bomber aircraft, in the guise of F-18 Hornets and F-16 Vipers.
Then, suddenly, it stopped.
Naturally, prices sky-rocketed and their value more than doubled.
Fast forward to the present and, in 2011, BBi struck back with a vengeance.
