corgi 2nd Half '06 - Speculation???

Which of the 2nd Half Corgi "06 releases do you think will sell out the quickest or be in most demand??? (What will be the "Bats Outa Hell" for the 2nd half "06 releases?)
(Include FM or other exclusives as well as regular releases.)


On the flip side:
Which of these releases will we be seeing at our local Tuesday Morning stores in June '08 (or sooner)?

Kind of hard to predict since we don't know the production run numbers, but I'd think that the Fairey Swordfish, P-38's, and the Catalinas will be very popular.

Corgi's got a number of what appear to be really nice models coming out (at some point )

On the other side, I'm not too enamored with the JU-88's.....

I thought about that when I typed this question - but thought we might still be able to discuss based on model/paint scheme/pilot, etc.

I'm thinking the B-25 New Guinea 1943; F4 Phantom Robin Olds; and the P-38 Dick Bong will be the fast sellers and become unavail. the quickest.

What we'll see in TM???
The P-51's and P47's of the last year. Possibly a couple of the spitfires from the 2nd half '06. And I have a hunch we may see some various F-86 sabres show up in at TM.

I think the Richard Bong P-38J will be a hot seller.
If it ever comes out

George Preddy was......Just the greatest fighter pilot who ever squinted through a gunsight.
He was a complete fighter pilot.......Colonel John C. Meyer Deputy Commander of the 352nd.

I think the P-38's and the Catalina's will go quick since they are new/different molds. I also anticipate the Swordfish to go quickly as well.

Swordfish with floats, RAF Coastal Command Cat, Bong P-38. I like the 88's but fear tons will be produced.

Great to speculate on what is going to be hot and whats not, but is going to be 06 or 07 the way things are going . I think the cats and 38's will go, and the float Swordfish should be a hot ticket also. The 609 Sqd Typhoon will move briskly also, when Corgi comes out with a D-day Typhoon that one will fly off the shelves.

I really see the Finland Junkers 88 going fast. It's a pretty traditional ETO paint scheme and with the other being a sand scheme it's no contest. The Heinkel, Stuka, Focke Wulf are all very popular but not in sand paint. People will be tripping over their wallets to get AA36702.

Smile second half

Second half? They haven't even got the first half out!! But I'm thinking that Bong's P-38 and the Typhoons will go first.
Cheers,
