No, I haven't, but that is about typical.... I never received the ones last year until they were over a month late.. Corgi has recently gone thru a personnel change and there are quite a few new people in the US office.. Hopefully, they can get back on the ball and run the club as it should be run..

Hate to be a spoil-sport, but given the US Club's track record, I'm betting this is going to be a showcase model.

If you join the club, do you usually get cars every month, or do they get you palnes. I don't do cars esspecially foreign cars. they all look like something that Mr. Bean would drive.

You get one free club exclusive each year.

The USA club hasn't been around very long (2 years?) and so far, they've given away cars. This will be the first plane.

Now with that said, they do have Club member-only exclusive offers from time to time, like that EXCELLENT offer they had this summer, where if you bought something like $150 worth of Corgi b/w April and June, you'd get your choice of free Corgi models...I chose the 1/32 Barkhorn Me-109 . So they've got good stuff like that. And the quarterly newsletter is nice. There's also a private forum.

Well I paid my $15 as soon as I read about the new model (about 2 weeks ago) and guess what came in the mail today.....


A pale yellow 57 Chevy!


Hope this doesn't mean I'm not getting the Gold Spitfire.

You're not. They've been talking about a gold P-51.

[parsig9]

Oh what's the difference?! You know what I mean.

[mustangdriver]

So, I just joined last week, so does that mean that I will get the Gold Mustang as well?

[SKUNKY]

....either that or the Silver Shaft...your choice.

Doesn't quite fit in my collection.
