Thanks for the pics, they are great.

So, what's the official word on those bombs? Did Bong *ever* fly with a bomb load? And can we remove the bombs if we want to?

I really like the stand. Will work well with my Matchbox (that's missing its stand)!

Yeah, the bombs kind of surprised me...hopefully you can easily remove them....

The two bombs do come seperately.

I have been holding back adding Corgi to my collection, but this one looks exceptional!! I'll be visiting IKEA for a new cabinet in the near future.

Quick question -- it may be the angle of the photograph, but does the canopy seem a little "bulbous."

I especially love that first pic & the one with Bong's likeness. You'll need to make posters for us. At least 8x10s.

Just go ahead and send those gift wrapped at your earliest convenience.

W O W !

Absolutely stunning. Even the stand looks incredibly well designed/thought out.

(Rhetorical question)

Who on the other thread said he had this in his hand and passed on it?

(Honestly - no judgement/personal attack. There are some great models that I pass on - just cause they aren't "my thing" or budget concerns - i.e. Corgi Swordfish.)


Outstanding pics. Thanks for posting them - Hopefully I'll be receiving my pre-ordered model soon.
