HM stands VS predator stands

I find HM has wobbly stands, they said they would correct that however all my HM planes even the most recent winter stuka wobbles.
I was wondering if the corgi predators suffer from the same problem?
 

I love Polikarpov

Re: HM stands VS predator stands

A kindly HM sales rep informed me that the wobble has been thoughtfully designed in to the unit...He cheerfully took the time to explain that if it didn't have a certain degree of flex it would likely experience structural failure under stress and of course that would spell disaster.....He also sold me the rustproofing and Scotchgard package.....He was very nice.

The stand for the Avenger is still pretty darn wobbly...

Re: HM stands VS predator stands

HM Avenger -- it's no more wobbly really than the Dragon stands, but I don't think it's the updated stand referred to below. (Hawk?)

Hello buddy, I thought you wouldn't want to miss this opportunity so I have managed to get you a full set of every Corgi Mustang .
Shipping is a mere trifle at $120 making the total cost only a paltry $1000.

Well what are friends for eh.
 

God Bless America.
