Title: Models (No not the girls :) )
Post by: Jimdandy on January 17, 2001, 11:52:00 AM

Does anyone know of a good site that has quality models of WWII aircraft that are fully assembled and painted? My model building skills have never risen above the level of sniffing the glue.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) My models look like they were bombed on the assembly line and patched together.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

I am looking at their Marushin and Armor Collection die cast models.

I have this one (plus 2 other 1:48 scale 109's): www.aikensairplanes.com/c49202.htm (http://www.aikensairplanes.com/c49202.htm)
Very impressed with detail and quality. They beat the new WW2 matchbox "collectors series" hands down.

I really like the the Armour Collection 1/48 scale. I have 10+ of them and there are more to come.

This is one of them
