Re: Swordfish In!?

I hope so too- have multiple versions on pre-order.

I'd feel better if the seller had a photo of the box or the model, not just the same corgi issued image everyone has had for six months.

Re: Swordfish In!?

I didn't get a Swordfish, but maybe this is a sign things are finally breaking loose and we'll start getting other Corgi orders.

That's good news, I have one of these on order. I'm assuming that it will be like last year and the last two months will cost me a fortune as everything I ordered comes in all at once!! Ouch!

Re: Swordfish In!?

I emailed the seller requesting a photo of the actual model rather than the pre-pro so I could see if they changed anything. We'll see how they respond.

I talked to TFM today and they said they didn't have anything new from Corgi as of today so I'm not too confident these are out just yet. I would be a bit surprised if they were released before the P-38s due to the complexity of rigging and original release schedule but I would love to be wrong.

Alas, still no P-38. I wouldn't have found that to be such a difficult one to get right but apparently they are having issues. We'll probably end up with all three hitting in December.

Which also means Donnie Boy should arrive as well.

Say Ships, which ones are you getting? I've pre-ordered A2A and was thinking of the floatplane until the black RAF one came along. Tough choices.
