Well, the factory that churns out the models is a long, long, long way from the UK. I'm more concerned if my retailer allocation falls short of his total orders and I'm one of the unlucky ones

Yeah, I was going to say that I'm pretty certain it's geography and not favouritism.

The Canadian Wartime Heritage Museum now has the RCAF Halifax "Vicky the Vicious Virgin" in stock. Picked mine up today along with the RL-204 Arrow. $259.99 CDN and they are sold out. They told me one of the models was badly damaged during shipping so get yours ASAP as it's possible the last one to claim theirs may be out of luck unless they ordered extra that were not for sale to the public. Mine looked in perfect condition.

I will let ACPilot post his usual excellent pictures of the model as I'm sure his efforts will be much better than mine.

Considering ours came over on the Mayflower the delivery time is about right.

Traffic from Plymouth Rock in the fall must be bad!

Playing on google today I inserted the name of the plane and squadron my Father flew in during WWII and low and behold here is Vicky. What a surprise. I'm not so handy on here but will try and post a few pictures I have. Love the passion on this site!

I finally took this one out of the box to display. I really like it. It was my first Halifax, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I liked it so much that I was kind of sad that I didn't have Friday the 13th to pair with it. I hopped on eBay and, by a random a stroke of luck, snagged one for a cool $125.

I think I may have to give up one of my Lancasters to fund the new purchase, but that will leave me with two Halifaxes and two Lancasters in my collection...can't complain too much.

I’m fairly new to collecting Corgi 1/72 and recently picked up Vicky. I am wondering about an earlier Halifax and really like the Coastal Command theme, but am concerned about the gaps showing more in white. Anyone have photos they could post to give and idea of what it (Coastal Command) looks like?

Thanks, but I was hoping for more than Google photos. I’ve seen MUCH better on this website.
