32X Zero Warning

Post by Coreyeagle48 » Sun May 14, 2006 2:25 pm

Guys

Just a heads up for those of you who are purchasing the gray Zero with the blue stripe, check them out before you buy them. A local Walmart had a whole shipment of about 6 of them and they all looked just awuful. Most noticeable yellow paint scratches down the wings and the yellow edge stripes looking like a kid painted them. Saw the same thing on a 205 in the German markings.

Just check them carefully, perhaps 21st tried to crank them out too fast

Corey

BTW: If anyone can find me a flawless white zero with the blue stripe, and willing to sell at cost plus shipping, let me know

You mean this one?? I don't know, this one looks flawless from what I can see, but you tell me? I have another one mint in box, and if this is what you are looking for PM me, I have a proposal for you. Cheers,

Scott

mine has the same yellow scratches on the undersurfaces of the wings, and fuselage, and fogging on the windscreen from the glue.
Wow, weird... I dunno?? I looked at the underside of mine just now and I don't see anything like what you are talking about, no scratches, yellow streaks, nothing, looks great to me. I don't doubt what you are saying mind you, It's just not there on my bird. It's past my bedtime so I gotta run, but I can post a pic of the underside for you guys tomorrow evening if you want. Ciao,

Scott

Its not just the Zero. I have found quality issues with all of the 32X planes. I am to the point where I open them and look them over real good.
