and a new 1/32 Mosie is coming out too.

Obviously you must be a 1/72 fan Panzer_M.

Getting excited by a Blenheim.

But it does look nice.As well as that CC Halifax.

Only new release from Corgi that I am definitely getting is the 1/32 Mosquito.

Already have two 1/32 Mosquitoes, and they are very nice.And very heavy.

no more of a fan of Coastal Command schemes lol.

I got the Blenheim notice first, then I got the rest of the releases in the follow up email.

the Ju 88 Nachtjager is a def own for me. Going for it over the Aug Ju88C-6 release.

but I am a fan of the Blenheim.

I think the Ju 88 should be a C-6 and not a A-6. I should have mentioned that earlier.

While I'll probably buy the CC Blenheim as it's a nice model, there's little else in the latest Corgi catalog, which is almost totally geared for the UK market, that appeals to me. Regarding the JU-88 night fighter, just because it's all black, that's no reason to get excited. I'd much rather they chose a green with gray blotches day fighter scheme, such as the JU-88Cs sported over the Bay Of Biscay. The Defiant, with that---to me---silly shark mouth----is also a ho hummer. I'd prefer another all-black scheme without the toothy grin under its chin.

Of the two C-6, I like the Nachtjager.

I would go well with the Me 110G-4 from HM and if I ever move it from my wishlist to a purchase, the Do 215B-5.

Still would like to see a Late War Do 217 done by Corgi, and a Ju 188A/E

How does a Halifax compare in size to a Lancaster or B-17/24?

I see The Flying Mule has the new Corgi 32nd scale Spitfire listed. Looks like I have to get that one.

Has the Mule list the 1/32 Mossie yet?

Pete's Collectibles has it up for pre-order I think.

Halifaes are larger than a lancaster in both wingspan, length and height. The B-17 is smaller than the halifax in wingspan and height but longer in length. The Lancaster is the smallest of the 3 in all categories. All size differences or by a matter of feet. So not by much.

1/32 Mosquito is listed at the Mule.

They aren't cheap, but are worth it,IMO.
