Corgi CH47 Chinook

Post by mosquitomania » Wed Sep 29, 2010 5:55 pm

I would like to get a Chinook model, but I was wondering, is Corgi the only one that makes the CH47 in 1:72nd scale? What do you guys think about the Corgi CH47?

MOSQUITOMANIA:

I have the Corgi ACH-47 "Easy Money" gunship. I think it's a pretty good model---including an opening tail ramp that reveals a rear machine gun with gunner. My only complaint is the gloss finish. I have Corgi's UH-1 Marine gunship and SH-3 "Chink 69"---both have weathering with matte finishes.

Thank you dragon 53. I really like British CH47s. Still trying to decide which one to get.

Great site dragon53! Thank you so much my friend. It is a nice looking model, just can't decide on which paint scheme to get.

I really like the AA34205 Royal Australian version. I like that camo pattern. What do you think of that one dragon53?
