Re: Corgi Release Delay

I could go for 2 bladed prop Spitfire, and Hurricane too. Where did you come across the pre-pro Spit Mk.I info?

Timbo is right. The three pre-pros (A-1, Spey Phantom, and Spitfire Mk.I) were all displayed together, photograped, and published in the Flying Tigers UK newsletter. If you send an e-mail to Flying Tigers, they may send you the pictures.

Thanks! I would like to see a photo of the two bladed Spitfire.

Thumbs up Re: Corgi Release Delay

... other than IXO though, right? Because they've already released a Beaufighter X in RCAF markings.

Not of the same quality as a Corgi or Gemini Aces releases, but it's out there

Yes -- not quite the same quality, sort of Corgi Warbird standard, but yes -- there -- AND RCAF -- and I should get it.

Re: Corgi Release Delay

Wasn't the pre-pro of the Mk.I Spit 1/48 scale? My memory could be wrong, of course, and I definitely haven't seen or heard any comment about a Spit since then.
