Re: Motorworks models

I purchase the F-14 and the F-18 a few years ago at Wal-Mart when I first started collecting, The planes I purchased had to be assembled and both did not fit well, pilots where the same color as the cockpit and the F-14's wings do swing but they are hollow underneath. I have seen them assembled at hobby shops and museums under different brands.

Re: Motorworks models

Hi guys,
They just costed less and in 2002 I was just starting to collect these diecast toys. Yes the models have production problems with details but I just took the pilots out and put them away until I decide to paint them.I don't feel motorworks visioned guys collecting them. The helicopters were great for their price. These kits came out the same year but all my models were pre assembled.I've came across Corgi and Dragon wings with funky problems then I just sent them back and they sent NEW ones out. My point is to find out who bought these motorworks models. Decals are out there to re paint these models after dipping them in warm pinesol for a day.

Woa' ! Wouldn't this technique eliminate the panel line details in those airplanes? At least I think the Harrier's lines are decals as well, or am I way out of line (no-pun intended) here?

Re: Motorworks models
