These are cute
little models. They don't have pilots (so can't be pictured flying),
the landing gear is fixed, and they are totally plastic (they're so
light they almost fly!). Wish the makers of metal diecast also made
Russian WWII types, but until they do, I'll pick up a few of these.
They are especially useful as photo backdrops.
I buy mine online from squadron.com or modelrectifier.com. The Squadron
web page is a bit confusing, so on their home page click the blue
bar at top, then click Search, then under Manufacturer select Model
Rectifier Corp. You can also find these models on the Model Rectifier
web site. Hint, when you go to that site, keep searching for aircraft/plastic/easy
model. In short, both Squadron and MR bury the things kind of deep
on their sites.
Wonder why Easy Model doesn't branch out into metal... |
