WW1 Diecast Aircraft Carousel 1, Corgi, etc

Carousel 1 1/48

I just picked up the 2 Carousel N11's and all 3 of the Flyboys N17's and have to say they are quite impressive. Nice graphics and fit, great rigging job. So far, I only have Richthofen's Dr.I and wasn't as impressed with it. Graphics, paint, ok but the fit ain't so hot. The horiz stab is crooked, wheel struts crooked, and the wings are a tad crooked. Don't know if just got a bad one or what. Still need the 2 Flyboys Dr.I's, hopefully they aren't the same way and at least they are alot cheaper.

Corgi 1/48

Impressed to see this new line from Corgi which consists of:

Se5a - pilot Lewis
Se5a - pilot Bishop
SPAD 13 - pilot Biddle
SPAD 13C1 - pilot Guynemer
Albatros DV - pilot Richthofen (great accurate paint scheme for a change)
Albatros DV - pilot Roth

Also a dogfight set limited to 150 made of MacKay's Se5a and Schleich's Albatros DV...$600!!! I'm thinkin about it...

I read they were due out in April 07 but Aiken's has them tentative for Sep/Nov 07.
