| Re: What are the best 1/72 Corgi "Biggies?"
I agree with Card, and JP, if you want to split hairs, Elmers asking for the best/second best MOLD, not particular model.. ![]() | ||||||||||||||

| Re: What are the best 1/72 Corgi "Biggies?" Elmer, I agree with the guys here that the Lanc is technically the best. Pappy's right, no ugly gap issues from any I've ever seen. I've been lucky with my B-17 as none have gap issues. My 24's are also very nice too! My favorite is the 909 B-17, although it's very close for the Sentimental Journey (pretty.....shinny..... ), the BOL, M-Belle and Mount N Ride......love 'em all!My personal favorite 2 engine is the "Bats Outa Hell".....also very...shinny....pretty... . Just something about those bare metal planes! | |||||||||||||

| Re: What are the best 1/72 Corgi "Biggies?" I think their Wellington and Catalina are two pretty impressive molds. | |||||||||||||

| Re: What are the best 1/72 Corgi "Biggies?" 4 Engine - the Lancaster is clearly the best.. the B17 and B24 are equal due to gap and joint line issues 2 Engine - He 111 then the B-25 | |||||||||||||

| Re: What are the best 1/72 Corgi "Biggies?" Revising my opinion on the 2 engine planes. I think the PBY-5A is the best 2 engine mold! | |||||||||||||

| Re: What are the best 1/72 Corgi "Biggies?"
I understand your reasoning but the PBY Catalina is the size of the four engined 'heavies' - perhaps it should stand in a category all by itself as it is truly superb . | ||||||||||||||

| Re: What are the best 1/72 Corgi "Biggies?" I agree with most of the others here at the forum - the Lancaster represents the best four-engined Corgi mold thus far, closely followed by the B-24 mold. As for two-engined bomber molds, I think the Heinkel and B-25 take the cake(s). | |||||||||||||
