I am tempted, but don't want to make a mistake...  | I intend to buy the ones you listed plus the I-15. So far I haven't seen any except for some fairly decent pictures posted by ebay sellers. These tell me that there will definitely be serious QC issues, which is not surprising considering how and why these planes are being made. I plan to replace floppy props, sand down glue blobs, put in realistic machine guns, etc. and will very likely repaint the models from top to bottom, then decal them. If this isn't your bag, I would suggest caution. Of the ones listed, the one with the fewest QC issues---based on posted pics--is the Fiat CR-42. I'd try that one first, before jumping in too deep. |
