Four more packages today - one from eBay seller wjhoppe (IXO Defiant IXJ00018 and IXO Hs 129 IXJ00027), one from VectisDirect in the UK (Corgi Bf 109 AA32101), one from eBay seller roccimodels (Dragon Wings P-51D "Glamorous Glennis III" DRW50001, Dragon Wings P-51D "The Millie G" DRW50003 and Dragon Wings P-51D "Petie 2nd" DRW50019) and one from eBay seller ggj4722 (Corgi Ju 87 AA32510).
I was especially happy to have my three new P-51Ds by Dragon Wings. However, although Petie 2nd gave me no trouble at all, the right landing gear of Millie G needed a major repair and the Glamorous Glennis didn't have a canopy in the box! I have emailed DragonModelsUSA, the main Dragon Models people in China and the original eBay seller to get one of them to send me a damned canopy. Talk about a disappointment!
Here are a few more pics for today.
The IXO Boulton-Paul Defiant Mark I (IXJ00018). It was covered in oil and the landing gear is trash, but it looks all right. It will look great next to my Corgi Hurricane Mark I night fighter (AA32002) and Corgi Spitfire Mark Vb night fighter (AA31908) when they arrive next week:
Dragon Wings P-51D "Petie 2nd" (DRW50019). This one went together like a charm and displays beautifully next to "Big Beautiful Doll":
Dragon Wings P-51D "The Millie G" (DRW50003). This one was hell to put together and I had to patiently put the right landing gear together to get it to display like this. Looks good now though!
Extremely rare & thus expensive Corgi Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4B (AA32101). It looks great next to my Dragon Wings Bf 109G-6 (DRW50254):
My Henschel Hs 129 tank buster (IXJ00027). Covered in oil but at least it displays nicely. The swazi wasn't very hard to apply despite the fact that I couldn't scrub all of the oil off...
