Re: Lego Warbirds?

What I love about Lego is their uncompromising dedication to detail! Diecast manufacturers have yet to equal, let alone surpass, Lego's meticulous attention to accuracy and PRECISION!!! I mean, compare a Lego warbird with the real thing, and I defy you to tell me which one is which.
 

It is never too late to be what you might have been.

Re: Lego Warbirds?

Very nice pics. Thanks for sharing Epapazian.

There's something enigmatic about lego toys, maybe it's because many of us grew up with them.
For me, lego sets are what I usually wish for every X'mas.

Well, time to drop by the Lego showroom near my office later today.

Re: Lego Warbirds?

The rivets on the Lego P-51D look better than the ones on the FOV P-51D.

Re: Lego Warbirds?

A couple of years ago I built the Sopwith Camel and Fokker triplane Lego sets. I think they were LEGO.com The Official Web Site of LEGO ® products! exlusives
Had a lot of fun with them!
