I have three Corgi 1/32s. Two Hurricanes and a Spitfire. I got them all as good deals on Ebay or I probably wouldn't have them. They take up a ton of space which will severely limit how many more I get.

Re: With HM's pending release of their 1/32 scale SBD.....

I have 2 of the Corgi 1/32 Mossie's and want to get the 3rd , Moncton Express, just keeping an eye out for a good price, also have 1 each of the Spit, Hurricane, Mustang, and Bf-109. Love the 1/32 line, but just as most of you have been saying the size makes displaying them a problem, that will not stop me from getting more. The rumor of another Mossie in 08 if comes through might mean that Corgi is getting back into the 1/32 game. As for the SBD not that interested, if It goes on sale maybe. If HM or Corgi comes out with a P-47, FW 190, Hellcat or Typhoon that would be great, sold . Hell if they can do a Mossie why not a Me 110.

I am in the same situation I have the Nicholson Hurricane, GMP Texas Longhorn and the Alan Deere Spitfire on the way I just wanted to see these models up close after some of the comments from the other members talk about them on here. They are nicely detailed especially the GMP P-40 but after these three I will have to call it quits for this scale as space is an issue for me.

Re: With HM's pending release of their 1/32 scale SBD.....

I own a fair number of the Corgi 1/32, though no Mosquitos. (Not my favorite bird and by the time I got around to discovering diecast I only saw the bumber/recon version. If I was going to grab one, it would be the fighter version.)

I've got the HM Dauntless on order. Dauntless is my favorite bird so I just cannot pass this up.
 

Anything for a weird life.

Re: With HM's pending release of their 1/32 scale SBD.....

From Corgi I have 5 109s, 3 Spits, 2 Hurris, 2 Mossies, 3 Stangs. From GMP I have 2 P40s and then there is a load of 21st Century stuff which is pretty dire by and large with the exception of the A6M weathered camo which is truly excellent. Probably won't get the first release of the SBD but the next is definitely on the cards. Only thing that Corgi could do with it's existing molds that would get me reaching for the old wallet is a black 6 (as long as it has the filter), for that I would pre-order sight unseen. Long term happiness is only possible if (at some distant point) I get to have a 1/32 190 to love and to cherish.
Regards
Taff

The 1/32nd scale models look great, but just do not have room to display or store the larger models. Pretty much sticking predominatly with 1/72nd with some 1/48th scale pieces. The larger models do offer some great detail though.

I'm with you CC, staying with the smaller stuff and still I'm running out of space.

Yep, I would like to get the big stuff like HMs latest Dauntless, but where to put it. My storage space is even getting used up. Have to admit HM looks to have done an impressive job on this model though. After seeing some photos of the next HM Dauntless, well,,, really do like the pre war paint scheme. I might just pick that one up though, but that would be the only 1/32nd for me, just do not have the space.

CC, I did some re-arranging last night in anticipation of new releases. Only managed to pick up 1/2 a shelf.
