Re: RAF Pembroke Dock Catalina

I am promising myself I'm only going to have two - the Pembroke Dock has already joined the collection, and Snafu is waiting to be shipped once another pre-order comes into stock.

Damn, it's going to be tough to resist getting more of these - they're quite spectacular on display!

The Coastal Command Cat diorama is due out this month according to the Mules site, do I hear 3 now

I saw this today in a local hobby store and wasn't overly impressed - pretty nice, but in my opinion not that special .

Re: RAF Pembroke Dock Catalina

Same here. I told myself that all I needed was the Snafu one, and now I have it, and I have the Black Cat one on pre-order.

My Snafu is on the way from the Mule already. Can't wait! I was also thinking on the Black cat version. Does the BC version have a front gun in the turret???

Re: RAF Pembroke Dock Catalina

two minor gripes......

The cellophane/plastic (wing) covers/bracing/packaging on the upper

polystyrene lid seem to be leaving/or have left a fine film of moisture (or light

oil?) in small patches on the upper wing paintwork - very strange ?


The other was the badly distorted & cracked Antenna/D.F.-Loop, situated on

the upper-wing between the two engines = bent it back into shape, yet to

be glued = unecessary hassle.

Anyone else found either of the two above.........???

I have received several Corgi models with this film on them recently - one, the Warbird Lancaster, wouldn't clean up so I returned it to the dealer - a replacement also had the marks, but these did mostly clean up. For £10 I couldn't be bothered going back again. The gloss finish models cleaned up better than the matt finish.
