Yeah a carrier diorama would be ideal, but i only really have a few carrier based die cast. They all get displayed (hopefully) in a glass cabinet anyway.

From memoryi have -

RAF -
Lancaster bomber
Halifax bomber
Griffon Spit x3
Hurricane x10
Typhoon
Tomahawk (p40)
Swordfish
Hellcat

US -
B17 (pacific)
Corsair x2
B25 Mitchell
Hellcat x2
P47 x3
Dauntless x2
P51 x3
P40 Warhawk
P38 Lightning

Luftwaffe -
HEIII
JU-88
ME 110
FW 190
BF 109

IJN -
Zero fighter


Thats from memory. So a couple could of slipped through the net. Also have a MkI Spitfire and a Mosquito but they are both encased in these buble type boxes. Bit annoying really.

Jealous does not describe how I feel right now.

This one Foz!


Do they do a Meteor F.mkI? If they do thats what McQ59 should get next to go with his V-1 and SpitXIV.

[FOZ_1983]

Thats a nice Mossie their pope!! If its the corgi one then its very hard to get hold of as its only limited to 1510 models and goes for a pretty penny to. I do need a nightfighter though as i dont have one.

A new Hurricane got released in December using "new tooling to make our models the best yet" so naturally i pre ordered it straight away!! When it was released the idiots had screwed it up badly. Its scheme was perfect and look great, but they someone managed to forget to make the air intake under the fuselage part of the new tooling thus completly missing it all together. I wasnt impressed at all, what a disgrace. haha.

I've found a pic of the mossie i have, so it saves me opening up the weird box it comes in. This is mine -



As for the Meteor.... They do indeed do them im not sure what Mk's though. Will find out.

...and as i speak about night fighter,a funny and strange thing : the germans night pilots said that a night fighter paint in white is a better camouflage that a black painting sheme!

[FOZ_1983]

Bit bored this evening so took a couple of Spitfire/Mustang pics. Nothing spectacular, just quick and simple to occupy boredom.
