Only have one of the F-15 Eagle RedHawks, most of the older releases.

Ranjet,

Very impressive!!! Do you have that many aircrafts from the other makers also??? How long have you been collecting? By the way, I sent you an IM.

AA, you must be relieved to see there are people deeper than you in this addiction...

As far as my collection goes, I have 14 of them, mostly hornets. I just started collecting 2 months ago. I tought I was getting out of control, but I guess I'm just doing fine!!

I was so totally floored by the number of FM 1:48s in "ranjets" collection that I wantedto see just what was being offered by FM, and what would it cost to own it. Using Aiken's Airplanes I learned this:

FM/CDC offers 39 fixed wing models

388 are now available on their site

Total value would be $34,550 if you had every issue in your hanger (Barn, more likely)

Average price per issue would be $89.04

My meager FM/CDC hanger is worth $2,137.

Oh man,

I 'm going to show my wife those photo's the next time she complains about my 150 1/48's.

Thanks in advance!

Hello everybody,
I´am the new one here in this forum.I just completed my counting and it adds up to 51 Armour 1/48, mosty props from WWII
I do not have the space to place them all in display cases so some are still packed in their boxes.

Any new guys want to add to this thread?

[Cruver Collecter]

Only have three of FM 1/48th scale models. 2 Bf 109s and one of thier Rufes.

I have 27 of these models, but haven't bought one in years due to the generally low quality, especially the lack of detail. A few, such as the SBD, P-38, F4U and F6F are quite acceptable, though far from spectacular, but I have no intention of buying any more until FM really makes a decision to put out a top quality product---even if this means higher prices. At this point, I am buying selected C1 and HM 1:48s, with the latter's Spitfire XIV ( Lacey ), being my latest acquisition.
