I got the snake stuka too, however i did repaint it but it still has the snake and everything, but i just spruced it up a bit. You can see it, its in the customs forum, but ya, they are really cool, and deffinitely quality products, however i have been looking for the Big Hog corsair, where did you find it?

I agree Jim, both of these are 2 of my favorites, with the new 109G's in the mix also...

I got those two as well, when over 20 of them showed up at a local Wal Mart before Christmas. Great and very accurate schemes! 21c even got the fine detail of the "paint blotch" on the Corsiar

While one may think the snake scheme on the stuka needs to be spruced up, it is actually the most accurate renditioning of that famous plane to date. Research has been done recently on the scheme which suggests it did not have the red elements on the snake, as on the earlier XD 1:18 stuka and FOV 1:72 stuka.

I found both of these at The Flying Mule....BadCat had not put them up for pre-order at that point. I believe that Small Joes has them, too. The history of the "mystery blotches" on the left side of the Big Hog's fuselage is really interesting....the item that tmanthegreat mentioned in his post, here.

Good work on the Stuka, wow....man, I sure would like another Winter Stuka in 1/18th.
