What do you think of

Post by ltcbj » Mon Dec 11, 2006 2:54 am

The Corgi Tiger 1/50 scale Tiger tanks from 2003.... Particulrly the detail, color scheme, etc. on #60504 and 60505. I am new to Corgi and need some valued opinions. Thanks.

I have a few and honestly, I am not that impressed with them.. They are LATE Tiger I's without zimmerit and sometimes Corgi glued storage in strange places.. The Allied stuff from them is pretty good, but the German stuff is lacking.. IMHO.. :wink:

I agree with Hworth, great Shermans and decent halftracks...Tigers have never looked quite right to me...I do like their Barkmann Panther though!

I also like the Wittmann Tiger from the History Channel line.

How do these stack up as toys, then?
