1/72 Fighters-future wishes??

justin · 09-28-2001, 11:42 AM

Corgi are really hitting the spot with some of their 1/72 fighters, the recent Corsiar and Zero are superb, and they are now giving us a Spitfire V, which should be great. What sort of releases would people want next? My own list would be;

Grumman F6F
Curtiss P40
FW190
FW190D9/Ta152
Hawker Typhoon
Yak9

As you can see, I'm a bit of a retro prop fan.

Hey Justin,
How about a,

F8F Bearcat
Skyraider
Seafury
Sea Spitfire

Great idea's there Ozz!! The Bearcat and Fury were magnificent fighters that were kind of forgotten as they over lapped the jet age sadly. The Skyraider would be nice and any Spitfire/Seafires. I loved the late model Spits with the bubble canopy, something like a Spitfire XXIV with the Griffon engine and bubble canopy would be fantastic. Cheers!

Oh yeah, a XX1V would make my day and the PR Spits and Mossies too.
I think these guys have a market for a long time to come.
