I discovered that my new Barkhorn did not come with the antennae like piece on the front edge of its wing (the wing on the same side as the supercharger intake) after noticing it today and then checking digital pics of when it was still in the box. Does anyone know what I could use for a replacement piece? Does Corgi send out replacement pieces for this small of an item? Would you guys even worry about it? Thanks.

Are you referring to the Pitot tube on the leading edge of the wing?

I believe that would be the piece, I just wasn't sure what it was called.

I emailed Corgi USA for a replacement piece on Sunday. Today I received an email back and the piece has been ordered for me. I was informed that I should receive it in 2 weeks or so. Even if they are delaying their 2008 releases, they still have good customer service/support.

I ordered a few missing parts for my Catalina Black Cat. Got them within 2 weeks!!
The lady in charge of spares is called Helena Smith. Great service.

Awesome! Glad you guys were able to get the missing pieces. I was wondering if one of you could contact Corgi about a piece that I was missing.....it's bright silver and shaped like a Special Offer Halifax..... Think they'll send me the part?!?!?!?!

I contacted them for you and they have gone ahead and sent it to my home address. I should have it in about 2 weeks. I'll let you know how it looks and take pictures of it for you!

Sweet! Just wondering if I could order enough parts from Corgi to make a Halifax......probably faster and more likely than getting the Special Offer one!

Can someone please post the email for Corgi USA? I have a B-29 with the Bell X-1 and the knob on the silver stand broke off and I was hoping they would send me a new stand piece. Thanks!
