Legends Streig Corsair, nice!!!

Being a Corsair nut I just picked up the Legends AA33007 Frederick Streig model.
If you guys have not see this one in person your missing out, IMO this is one of Corgis best Corsairs.
I love the paint scheme, it's a great looking model.
Worth picking up before they become hard to find.
Here are some quick pics I shot, sorry for the crappy lighting.

Re: Legends Streig Corsair, nice!!!

I have always loved the Corsairs & Mustangs of WWII.
That really is a clean looking F4U Jolly Rogers.
Great Pictures too.

Re: Legends Streig Corsair, nice!!!

That is a great model and one of my favorites. As I'm a "display-in-flight" type of guy I wished they would have done this on in the AA line.

Best paint scheme of all of Corgi's Corsairs - imo. Love the 1943 red outlined roundrel! Jolly Rogers; 3-tone; victory flags; etc.

Re: Legends Streig Corsair, nice!!!

I agree phantom! This is one of my prized possessions. Like DADoser, I love the red surround on the national insignia. I did some weathering on mine and it really adds to the overall effect. My only complaint is the landing gear. It looks to large and bulky for some reason. Still, the model is a great Corsair!
