Thanks Marky, glad to see the Wessex and Boscombe Jag to name a few are well on schedule:mad:

[DCRanger]

The SD Lysander might be my first at the right price.

[david cotton]

Nothing there for me, but I still have outstanding targits to bag :)

[scott]

Only the Spitfire Type PR and the Lysander for :)

The Spit VB is obviously the old mould, but I hope it has those big paddle blades, to go with all the others. A bit of bending with the non-Dihedral wings and sorted, a decent enough spit, at a decent enough price that is :LOL:

[Red 2]

When will the remaiming releases appear?:rolleyes: :unsure: :(

Your British Airways A320 from Gemini 200 should be in UK by the end of next week so that should keep you going!!!

I beleive it is arriving in UK with the August Gemini releases including the Hun Hunter mustang from Gemini Aces.

Cheers!

Hun Hunter does look good but methinks GA need their new toolings sooner rather than later to keep up the initial enthusiasm.

Anyway, there had better be some warbirds soon before I'm permanently converted to the spamcans!:LOL:

Anyone else think that Corgi's going to flood the market in the run up to Xmas??.I want a lizzie but won't be bent over and pay £40 for a £20 model , with 2000 SD's to go with the 000's of others prices will plummet soon methinks ala JU88 .

Russian-marked Spit and the Vampire are the two I want from from these.....the Spit will be a good addition to the Ruski display and the camo Vampire is the one I've been wanting since it was announced.:cool

Possibly the spit I may get straight away and love the RAF vamp but may wait until that's dumped. That spits going to be the old mould no doubt so has it got any life left in it? or a must wait till dump time :unsure:
like to see all corgi's in the flesh first, trust is an issue now with corgi, especially with the spits

[Grim Reaper]

Got the Spit on pre-order with the mule

Brave man, I do hope it's a good 'un. If it's more like the Donald Duck Vb and less like the MZ special comission Spit then it can only be good :unsure:

[DCRanger]

I see that these models are already on Ebay with BIN prices.

SD Lizzie £32.99.

PR Spit £24.99

Vampire £32.99

Vampire still too expensive, as are probably the others :(

[eismeer]

the camo Vampire is the one I've been wanting since it was announced.:cool

Plus will look great displayed with the rest of the cammo RAF jets, Bucc, Lightning, Jag etc :cool:

All we need now is for whoever to get their finger out and give us a cammo RAF Phantom.

Can't be long now though:unsure:

[Craig]

The SD Lizzie is on my "to get" list, but not at 40 quid. Will come down a bit, don't mind about 30 but 40 is too much. Worrying how far behind Corgi are getting though, how many months late for the Falklands VC-10? Something needs doing soon as "deluge" will be an understatement if all the penned releases are still to follow. That is of course assuming they are however.....:unsure: :o :rolleyes: :eek:

Exactly.;) :cool

The two Spits have appeared straight away at £23 BIN. This is slightly lower than previous recent releases of similar type & size.

They were just in the normal Corgi Aviation section on ebay.....

But the money your saving on the price your paying on their rather high postage costs..

£4.95 for recorded delivery.....the rate for 1.25kg.....suppose it could be £1.30-ish cheaper......but not too OTT compared to the tossers that try and charge £6-£7 quid and then send it 2nd class....

Have to admit I didn't check the detail......still a bit too much for me for a tired old mould.....

[von hitchofen]

Shuttleworth Lysander could be my first....but at £34:eek: ....nein danke
