Homer,

I'm working on "Old Gear Box " bank Planes(1:35) right now plus those
Postage/Corgi" planes too.
I'm looking for the old "23rdTFW in Euro-1", I have the latest matter of fact several of them put away in the Gary Cammo.
I have just about everyone of the P-40 series , now on the P-47 AND F4U ones.
I see where more and more 1/72 scale are coming out I have the "GI Joe "Hero series but those new Dragon and Corgi look pretty good too.
I snagged a F6F-3 early version which their selling for "49.50 MARKED DOWN" and the other version of VF-13 for "19.00 marked down" found both for $10.00 a pc. and the rare one is #11 of 2500 boy did I score!!!!!!!!!!!

You have a great collection there, If any of you guys out there were on Eagles or LawnDarts they have actual differant squadron mock-ups of the flightline and equipment,Crewchiefs that go with them in 1/72 scale in diecast.
I'm hoping for a A-10 version now.

But if it aint A-10 , then either, P-40,P-47,F4U,F4F,F6F or FG-1 Corsairs unless I run across a "P-39" aircobra

Its just my Hobby now after collecting Plastic Kits, I still need to get those out of here.

that sounds like a good deal you made there...
Recently I watched the offers at Ebay, I bought a B-17 two days ago.
You got any pics of your models? would be interesting to see them!
