Okay, as Hobby Master fans we can no longer complain about Dragon's "fiddly bits"

While rougher around the edges than the Stuka and SBD, this is another worthy effort by one of "the new kids on the diecast block". I just can't say no to a jet with a camo scheme it seems...

Terrific pictures + review! Thanks, ACE!

Scores low due to the fit issues and backwards landing gear, but I still like it Though why this wasn't a limited CH release is a head-scratcher. (They'll probably release a CH version with one more kill flag )

Okay, did this one kind of quick so forgive any errors -- and please do point them out. I had to use a new/temporary light table for this shoot and had a devil of a time getting the lighting to cooperate and give good results with the two shades of green (this is a bz scheme), but I think most of the shots are close. The close-ups are where the green seems to brighten up a bit. Overall, I really like this model a lot. However, I think it is actually the weakest of the three Gemini releases and thus, the somewhat misleading score, which will hopefully make sense when I post the next two models. Dragon and Corgi have some real competition on their hands...

Finally got the last of the three Gemin Birds up, the 109. I like it, just don't get that excited by 109s (Though I can't seem to stop buying the silly things )

Does anyone that picked these up really dislike them???

Thanks for your pics and reviews, Pappy. I'm sold!

"Does anyone that picked these up really dislike them???" - Not if they are sane.

Great stuff PappyB! I'm really looking forward to my delivery of these birds. I'll have to wait a while to have some pre-orders filled.

To give you guys some perspective I've just received notification from the post office of a FM parcel that contains my FM 262, Hellcat, Wildcat, SBD, MK VIII Spits and Gladiator to name a few!
