New Additions to Your Collection

Last edited by easy8 : 04-10-2007 at 09:42 PM. Reason: typo in heading
Hey all, just thought I would try out this thread. Kind of way to maybe keep up on what everyone has been buying (and hiding from the wife). Thought we could post our most recent additions to our ever growing collections here. You can post pics, or just list them off, might help others decide on adding the same to their collections or lead them to a piece they may not have thought about.

For me the latest was the Dragon P-51 E2-S 8th Air Force, with green camo, man I like this plane! I had held off for awhile, but since I started my quest to nab all of Dragon's D model Stangs, I decided it was time to pull the trigger, and I'm glad I did! I also recently got the HM Bush Avenger...another winner!

Re: New Additons to Your Collection

I had been out of purchasing cue for about 6 weeks - until Saturday afternoon. My newest acquisitions are:




Corgi PBY-5 Catalina Black Cat


Corgi Messerschmitt BF 109E Oberstleutnant Adolf Galland, Geschwaderkommodore, Jagdgeschwader 26 Schlageter, Audembert, 1940


Corgi Hawker Typhoon MkI RAF No.245 Sqn, Germany, June 1945

Gemini AcesSpitfire MkIX USAAF 52nd FG, 2nd FS, Freddie Ohr, Tunisia, 1943

Hobby Master A-10 Warthog USAF 511th TFS, "MiL Killer", Todd Sheehy, 1991



I think the Bush Avenger is on my next to buy list - the HM version is very nice.

Re: New Additons to Your Collection

Last plane to land at my house was the Hun Hunter 1/72 Corgi, I bought it on my honeymoon, sold it for some extra $$$ then got it back cheaper than I had in the first place.......for all the hassle though, I should never have sold it in the first place.
