Captured Pilot's WWII Lancaster Model

Post by lightning2000 » Thu Jan 08, 2009 9:17 am

Hi,
I saw this thread on another forum and thought it was interesting enough to post here:

Since Corgi produces a replica of the Lancaster, they might want to think about covering this subject.

Cordially,

Hi Lighting

Saw this on your site, and was wondering how it held the aircraft?

Adjustable Metal Display Stand (1:32 Scale)

link to the photo to the stand

and say will it work for a Fw190F as well as say a Spitfire I(Both 32x)

and would it work for maybe something like a Kit 1/32 Me 110?..although I think that maybe to much to ask...also how big is the base? and is the base weighted? not that the weighted this matters, I can prob rig something to work.

I'd like some stands myself, but it's hard to justify the expenditures when the stands cost more than the planes themselves....

Hi,
We havent received any of the stands so I cant really comment on their capabilities. You might want to ask HawkoneVoodoo, who runs the Hobby Master Collector web site, regarding its versatility.

Amazing model, especially considering when and where it was built! :shock:
