Re: Special Commissions

Did they give any response?

Yes I did and it was similar to the responce I received when I put in one for the CAM ship Hurricane. I wonder if enough forum members sent in similar requests, if it might intiate some serious consideration for some of these suggestions?

Re: Special Commissions

Corgi, 1/72 FW190/Ju88 'Mistel' combo at a reasonable price ... (Why? They have the molds and it would be unique as a special commission.

Definitely a winner in my book as well, Cardo!
I've always thought of doing a project on 'Mistel', but if Corgi will grace us at least a diecast set of this...it will all the better!

Re: Special Commissions

I would like an RCAF/CAF CF-104, silver version and a camo or an all green version at least. That's at least 3 that could be split amongst the amount that would have to be ordered. Say 500 of each.

If I was in a position to initiate a special commission, it would either be the 479th TFW F-104C star/comet markings (250 pieces per squadron for a 1000 piece run), or it would be a VA-153 Blue-Tail Flies A-4B circa 1961.

Rush you posted a link with lots of 104 pix a while back. Cleverly I did not bookmark it. Could you post it again?

Nope I did not have that one. Yet another night of reading and drooling coming up I think. Good thing we're expecting another 30 cm of snow tonight/tomorrow and I had not planned on going to work. Now if the munchies hold out I'll be ok.

Re: Special Commissions

I sent another Mistel suggestion into Corgi a few days back, and here is the responce I received. Maybe if enough forum members sent in suggestions we might get them thinking about possibly making this one.

Thank you for your email. We have no plans to produce this particular at
present, however I shall pass your suggestrion onto the Head Office on
your behalf for perusal when considering new models. Head Office will
contact you directly in due course regarding the outcome of the
suggestion.


Kind Regards
