I was looking around on Corgi's website and found the Corgi Aviation Archive Collectors Club. I've heard you guys talk about it but what all does the membership really include?

I think it authorizes you to be allowed to buy as many Corgi Aviation Archive models as you possibly can without fear of retribution by Corgi or their distributors.

As a member, you'll get a bi-monthly newsletter, typically a "freebie" club piece (this year was a 1/48 '57 chevy) and chances at special offers and promotions from Corgi (The last promotion was if you spent a certain dollar amount within 3 months, you got a free diecast of your choice.. My "freebie" was a 1/32 Barkhorn Bf-109G)

Also access to purchase Collectors Club models (like the Captive Eagle) from Corgi instead of ebay

But that is the UK club and Harry was talking about the US club so make sure you know what you want. The $$ for free models thing seems like a heck of a deal. The Fw-190 is just more cash swirling in the bowl. Ok, nicely painted cash as it may be.......

True, true....

FYI UK Club Members get to join the US Club at a discount. I'm not sure if it works vice versa.

Now that is good to know! Thanks

Yes, if you join both clubs, there is a discount..

If I had to choose I believe that I would choose the eclusive offerings over the freebies. I think that the market value of these model may end up exceding that of the free model. Plus, I just dig the unique stuff.
