But if you or someone else have a link to a hobby that sell those, then please post it.

Well here she is, without a shadow of a doubt the worst example yet in the collection

What can you do though?....they are limited in number and advertised at least six months ahead of release so you have no option but to dip your toes in the water.

The only positive I can think of is the fact this is a type that has never been done at 'collectors level' so is therefore the only show in town.

I only pray and hope the Sea Vixen on advanced pre-order looks better but the initial casting photo I've seen doesn't exactly fill me with any great hope

XH766 Sky Guardians Gloster Javelin 64 Sqn 734/1500

Thank you for sharing these link with us/me.

However I should have given a more detailed explanation

It have to be american battleship and in scale 1:350

I have found some models so far( I had used wrong search-words)
Now I just write "Diecast models of american battleship"

BB 39 USS Arizona
BB 63 USS New Jersey

They cost about $1100 each

At 1:350 they most surely would

Latest addition:

AA32311 Corgi Lightning F.Mk.6 XR770 No 5 Sqn RAF Binbrook 1202/1600

Herr-Berbunch · 02-01-12, 11:59 AM

Grimsby's Lightning. But the council didn't want it.

It's still looking good after a refurb a couple of years ago, 5 Sqn have it on loan from the current owner.

You've just answered a question someone put to me on the above

Jimbuna · 02-03-12, 12:51 PM

Corgi AA35404 Jaguar 'Winter Camo'

Good, glad to help!

Any further questions, your honour?

Nice 54 Sqn Jag, only one place that's going in that paint job - Norway. My first proper posting was Coltishall and the Jag is just an ace jet - nothing better than a six-ship simulated airfield attack - coming from all angles at full pelt in seconds.
