Hey folks,
I need some feedback. I'm starting to see Dragon Constellations pop up on sale. I don't own any 1/400, but, well, its a Connie.

How big are these (1/400 seems awfully small.) and are they worth the $15.00 that I'm seeing them advertised for?

I have the one called "Connie", just cuz I like Connies...They certainly are dinky at that scale alright (less than 4 inches in length and span)....It's not bad for 15 bucks ( I wouldn't give any more than that though)

Thanks sir. I appreciate your feedback, though I'm still a little stunned by the Corgi B-52 compliment. I'm wondering if you are feeling well.

Ha!...I have to admit Corgi does put out a pretty nice BUFF (except for the 'Iraqi Freedom' one evidently)

Why do you want to go so small when you could get a nice Connie 1/44 from Corgi?
They do make a nice Connie.

I've collected 1/400 scale civil aircraft far longer than I have larger scale military models and can tell you - if you're interested in a 1/400 scale 'Connie', look no further than the releases provided by AeroClassics. Here's a few shots of one of their models:







Sorry, that's the only set of pictures I have on my server right now - nevertheless AeroClassics has released somewhere in the vicinity of 60 variants on this mould.
