Polished Halifax

Now those of you who received the freebie polished Halifax can stop whining.
Grab a set of decals and you have this pictured below.

Re: Polished Halifax

The polished one has a front gun turret unlike the one pictured.

Yeah, black and gunmetal should cover the paint line up.
Not exactly a scratchbuilt project.

Re: Polished Halifax

Oh and Merlin engines as well...

Sory if I seem sceptical, smartd, but I'm in a bad mood.

I was expecting a parcel containing a new model today. And what did I find? A slip from the post office saying the seller had failled to pay the full amount, so now I have to fork out the money with added "Unpaid Items Charge" from the post office guys. Typical.

That's a bummer, hope it's one you really want and don't mind forking out the extra cash to get.
Will you get money back from seller?

I hope so, but it isn't really the money, it's the principle. And i'll have too wait a bit longer for my plane now...

Re: Polished Halifax

The silver halifax shown above would make a ideal renovation for the Berlin Airlift one. They are almost identical except for the colour.

Re: Polished Halifax

They made the one with the pointy engines the freebie?
Maybe Corgi figures that one will be a dog and made it the freebie to justify the cost of dies to make it.
Most production WWII Halifaxes have the Bristol engines
Anyone have a picture? Is it out yet?

Re: Polished Halifax

There is one on a previous thread, smartd

Look for the "Freebie Model Revealed" thread, it is on the first page.
