He may be. Might be sold seperately tho..

If he's available, he can be posed..

That is ALWAYS fun..

I'm waiting for the version with the Kungfu grip =)

I've had that Corsair for about a year now (got it as a gift). Historically, their were no F4U-1As serving in the fleet by 1950, only F4U-4s and F4U-5s. If they had revised the cowling and added a four-blade prop, they might have been able to pass it off as an F4U-4 despite having the older -1A canopy.

Still a nice model tho. I've been meaning to pull out the airbrush and re-do the markings to that of an F4U-1A circa 1944-45 vintage.

My regards,

Widewing

And then you see a guy in his 40s snag the last plane and you ask ... "That for your kid?" And he says he ain't got no kids. And something clicks and you wrestle him on the floor for it and you both get kicked out of the store for fighting only to see yet another guy in his 40s walk outa the store with it. So you both start a bidding war with him .... then ....

Errr .....

I mean .... cool toys.

40s, hell. Try 50s!:D  Yer never too old.
