Demonstration Teams

I was just wondering if there was any interest in collecting Flight Demonstration teams such as The Blue Angels or Thunderbirds? I would like to have one of each type A/C used through the seasons. I see that after a quick search that a couple of companies offer the Thunderbirds F-16.

Re: Demonstration Teams

Corgi brought out some planes of teams and Witty often does colourful schemes.

Re: Demonstration Teams

Let's see: Corgi did two 1/72nd Blue Angels F-4 and about to release the A-4 Skyhawk (don't hit me Skunky ) and the BAE Hawk in "Red Arrows" colours, Sunstar did two 1/72nd F-16 Thunderbirds. Franklin Mint/Armour did a 1/48th F-4 and an F/A-18 Blue Angels and an F-16 Thunderbirds.
