Ju-87R-2
Stuka, A5+HH, 1./STG 1, Krainici, Bulgaria, 1941 |
WWII
Legends collection. Update of Legends model HC32508,
which was sold without the swastika. The paint on the former version
was duller and the yellow portions were lighter. The lower-fuselage
color on the former was more robins-egg blue, while the latter is
more sky-blue. The radiator on the former model was painted black.
The landing gear on the older model hung straight down, but the gear
on the more recent model was crooked.
I like the colors on this more recent Stuka, but wish Corgi cared
more about assembly quality, especially when it comes to landing gear
and props. But, hey, Corgi is Corgi, and what can you do but stop
buying...and we don't want to do that, now, do we? |
