I am looking to add a 1/72 Avenger to my small but growing collection. A local hobby shop has 3 different Hobby Master Avengerrs but most of my collection is Corgi. Any pros or cons for Hobby Master vs Corgi Avengers
Thanks

It's the same model, HM produced the Predators line for Corgi who in turn just put their name on them & stuck them in Corgi boxes. Main differences between the two are that the Corgi version lacks some of the fine detail found on the Hobby Master as well as the wash.
IMO since the corgi lacks some of the small stenciling found on the HM, the HM makes a more realistic looking model.

As I have examples of both, I tend to agree with you. In addition to better detail, the colors on the HM Avenger are a lot more realistic and it has a wash, which I feel is important. When the new HM pilot figures arrive, I plan to install them in my HM Avenger as well as their SBD and models made by other manufacturers.

I will check out the local shop and save the postage if I ordered on-line
