The mule has gotten a whole mess of older models in. I was shocked to see that they had Corgi 1/32 Erich Hartmann Bf-109 in and Corgi 1/72 B-24 Strawberry Bitch in. I wonder where these are coming from? Anyone know.

My guess is that Corgi found excess stock it didn't know about, or Martin bought out a huge private collection.
Or, he could be selling his own collection. You never know.......

It appears to be warehoused stock from one or other source and I doubt very much that it is/was a private collection - there are far too many multiples of items like the 'Doodlebug' He111 . I sincerely hope that this phenomenon doesn't represent the last dying gasps of Corgi .

I was lucky enough to pick up the 'penultimate' Grand Slam Lancaster just prior to the Sold Out sign being hung up on the cyberdoor .

(Rich [and expensive] pickings the past few months ...)

Grand Slam is the only one i didn't have and picked up last night.
Now it looks like i'm done with the Lancasters for now...By the way what is the deal on a
Easter Egg Grand Slam ?

Wow!! great catch.
I've been looking for both of these for some time.
Funny how they pop up when you least expect it,
Last week after the first round I contacted the Mule but they said all they were expecting were a few more RCAF versions.
If its a private collection maybe we'll see some 1:32 planes.

The Easter Egg GS Lanc was a special production of 300 models. The only difference between the two is the Easter Egg model is YZ-T whereas the regular production is YZ-S.

What did the easter egg go for, as weren't these only available in the UK??

I just grabbed the Hartmann 1/32 109. $119

I have no idea what these were priced when they were released and I know I have passed on them for the same $. Sorry Harry!

But today the price seemed a steal with free shipping. Thanks to President Bush, I have a way to pay too!

I love war and Republicans!
