While I plan to buy a number of these models---mainly those not done by Corgi---it is important to realize what these really are. This has been discussed in some detail in other threads on the Altaya planes which can be found under the category "IXO Models Junior". In one of these I briefly reviewed an "advance" copy of the B-17G, citing good and bad points. Overall, I think that planes like the Emily or FW-200 are worth buying even if one has to make "corrections", do a little touch-up painting, etc. I don't think I can say the same thing about Altaya's Lancaster, B-24, Wellington, HE-111 ,etc., which are available in larger size and better quality from Corgi.
