Did Corgi ever fix the tail problem on their S1 Do-17z

or Is the entire run of the first Do-17 have the askew tail(right side IIRC)

Looking at one, and while it's not a deal-breaking fault, I just want to know what I am getting before I order.

Also is it fixable?

I have the Do-215-B Nightfighter and it is a great piece! I think it is still up in the air whether the starboard tail is incorrect or not. The 3rd release was issud with the straightened stabilizer.

Got the first release Do17.

Although a great model,it does have the "bent" horizontal stabilizer.

Not a deal breaker,and not obvious.But it is there.

If it is a scheme you want,go for it. :wink:

I am more motivated by the sale at the mule than the model at this point. I missed when the Ju88A-6/U was 66.00 and the 1944 Baby Blitz Spotted Ju88A-5 was 66.00 as I sat on my wallet waiting.
