You should be very pleased as I think it is one of the better 190s made by Carousel1..

Yes, although it will be hard to top "Yellow 10." But I know what you mean, and wouldn't be spending more money on this type if I didn't think just that (I don't usually buy too many of a given type of model).

I bought Red 4 and I was very impressed with the high standard of both the casting and the paint work.
I would like them all but again space is the ever present problem for me.

When space is limited its always a problem when a series of a really good aircraft are brought out.
The Swordfish , P40s and the Corgi 1/32 Me 109s come into that category, just how many is enough?

Like many on the forum I started out with the intension of getting maybe a couple of each type but somehow it never quite works out like that does it.
Without going too far off topic, I had a good look at my collection with the intention of selling off those I didnt much care for to make space for some of the new stuff, guess what?
I like em all and dont have any that I want to let go!

Red 4 looks cool too i think...But i still like Yellow 10 a little better...
Wish C1 make some more schemes soon too.

I am sure many folks who have not acquired a C1 model are put off by price. The D-11 was my first acquisition, then the D-13, and finally the D-9. When the D-11 arrived, I was certain--with the limited run, and the beauty and high quality of the model--these would not be available for long, but, nearly one year later, there seem to be plenty still available.

Folks seem to enter 1:48 diecast waters very timidly. If collectors truly understood the quality and beauty C1's Doras offer, they would all be sold. At $69.95, I consider them a bargain.

I agree.. The C1 models are all very nice, reasonably priced and VERY underrated.. They are some of the jewels of my collection..
