Re: FOV B-25/B-26 pics..

I will probably pick up both, just for the fact that the Marauders a "no-brainer" and I have always liked the B-25's scheme..

Re: FOV B-25/B-26 pics..

They certainly look acceptable. Lots of bent parts on both of them but since that means plastic it can be corrected. Now just a question of whether Target will stock these for less......

Most likely, but the bigger question will be whether you can wait till Target stocks these...

Hope TARGETs get them soon but I'm patient enough so the wait won't be an issue for me.

Yep!

I have lots of other things I want so if I just spend all my money on other models it won't be a problem!

Re: FOV B-25/B-26 pics..

They don't look that bad, color me surprised.... I won't get the B-25 (hold out hopes Corgi will get around to that scheme...) but the B-26, probably....

Cool Re: FOV B-25/B-26 pics..

I like the look of the B26. If they end up here I'll probably get one. I don't know about the B25 though. I take it we'll have a comparison with the Corgi B25 when they start landing. I'm looking forward to your reviews once you all have them. Any thoughts on the panel lines?

Re: FOV B-25/B-26 pics..

Question is, will the Target ones be the fixed down landing gear models? I"m not interested if so, but then I'm not waiting to find out anyway. This B-26 looks great!

As for the panel lines - I just looked at Corgi's B-25 and the FOV is no worse.

Re: FOV B-25/B-26 pics..

Having prior experience with FOV, I don't think anyone here is surprised.. As a matter of fact, I think the majority of members are/will be pleased with how these turned out, unlike some of our counterparts, whom are already critisizing it before they even see it in person..
But hey, who else is going to make a Marauder anytime soon??
