That works. You can also reuse the guns depending on how badly they are broken. Just trim off the damaged section and reglue them. They'll be shorter, but not that noticable.

Oh no, he's saying all four at that store were broken, but apparently they were all the same version.


As far as the mid-wing holes, I don't think there are any guns there - at least my White 7 didn't have any.

21c is correct by not including the outer wing cannon on the "White 7" FW-190F. The same goes for the "Red 9" aircraft. In reality, the FW-190F had the outer wing cannon removed to save weight due to extra armor plating that was added around the engine and cockpit to better protect the aircraft from small-arms fire when it was attacking ground targets. Not to mention the added weight of the extra bomb ordinance that was carried. The A-series fighter variant of the FW-190 had the four wing cannon and that feature is correctly replicated on the 32x "Yellow 11" FW-190A8.

I'd be so happy to find one I think it could be busted in half and I'd take it and just duct tape the damn thing together. :lol:

You're just cranky because I finally got my hands on something before you did.

I'll bet your Wallys has them on the shelf now.
:cry: :cry: :cry: Yesterday I saw a stack of 190's at TRU from down the aisle. I wasn't a happy camper when I reached them and saw they were all Doras. :cry: I think 21st made about 50,000 Doras. As for WM... :evil:
