I'll throw my hat into the ring and say that Corgi does a very nice 1/72 scale bird. The bomber version is a little weird since they manufactured it without bombs, or the option of mounting them, but the rest are find models.

I'd recommend the California Cutie P-38 from Corgi because of the livery. I also have the Olds and Bong P-38s from Corgi, but California Cutie is my favorite.

I'm looking forward to the Blue PRU Lightning and the other with the green snake like images on the engines used in India. I have the Olds / Bong P-38s and I like them. Wish the McQuire version came with the wheels up/down option.

I'd go with the Corgi models also, although they often lack some of the more obvious stenciling, which I've added in a few cases. If you can find one, either of the two Matchbox "wheels-up" P-38s is a good addition to any collection as well. But stay far, far, far away from IXO's version, it's a real dog. The same goes for Witty's models---they are sub par at best.
