The December issue of Aeroplane monthly has news of the following new Corgi toolings;
B-52c in silver SAC livery ( with a lovely photo)
1/72nd Sirkorsky SH-3D with Apollo capsule splashdown diorama) with a photo of the helicopter only
Westland Seaking 825 Sqdn (Falklands)
1/72nd JU-87 B Stuka II/St.G2 ( Desert scheme with snake down the side.
And new liverys for the C-130, Victor,Vulcan and Sea Harrier in Falklands schemes plus a photoetched South Atlantic Medal reproduction.
Hope this is of interest to all of you!

Thanks for the news! The Sea Kings should be interesting, and the Stuka is a good choice to extend their WW2 range. My own pick here is the Falklands conflict Sea Harrier, a real "must have" for me. The B52 is gonna be a huge model even in 1/144, should be good.

Interesting releases.
Like the Seaking a lot, looking forward to seeing images of the releases.
The B-52 will be ahrd to resist but the size and weight will be a problem!

What are the new 2002 C-130 liveries? Corgi has already done 1312 Flight from Falklands (48401).

Hi guys

I am Jason, just found the site great to speak to other collectors. I have Corgi and Armour models. where did you get the info re the new Corgi stuff, can you give me the web sites.

Anyway I am from Australia and love new info about Armour and Corgi. I am surprised that they dont have a forum for these 2 new brands.

Anyway look forward to speaking with you all.

Jason

Hi, welcome onboard!! There seems to be a gowing interest in these two ranges here, the more the merrier! I've often been surprised that for a long time CDC Armour was almost ignored here on a diecast aircraft forum, but in the last year they seem to be generating quite a lot of interest, personally I love their 1/48 models. Take care,

Justin

Welcome Jason!
We recently have a Corgi insider and once he saw the new models were advertised he mentioned them here.
So we are getting some good info here!
Definitely the Armour and Corgi bandwagon is gaining worshippers, this area of DAC is a fantastic spot for information about the models in general and about all things aviation in general. Well aviation and "other" things we discuss a ull plethora of subjects!
