Re: Dragon and Corgi P-47D Razorbacks

Finally picked up a Dragon P-47D Razorback (Thanks to a sweet deal from PappyB) and can make a mini comparison with the Corgi version. Both are nice looking models, but have to give a slight edge to the Dragon version. I like the canopy mold on the Dragon one because it does the canopy separately as apposed to Corgi version which has a bit of the fuselage in part of this mold. Another feature that looks to be done better on the Dragon version is the antenna mast; the one on the Corgi version looks just a bit large to be scale. Dragon also adds just a few smaller bits of detail that gives it an edge, the propeller markings and ordinance pylons for example. Both are nice looking models, but have to in my opinion give a slight edge to Dragon's version.




I have that one too! It's one of my favorite schemes next to MATCHBOX Gabreski's bubble top T-Bolt!
