Dave J Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 It will be at the Tokyo Hobby Show most likey... Its in October sometime.
tomv1987 Posted September 7, 2014 Author Posted September 7, 2014 Dang! Now I will have to buy this one too. The Corsair is my favorite plane, and the F4U-1A is my favorite model. Better start saving my pennies! 1

Artful69 Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Grabbed a Birdcage for kicks when released ... some of the best kicks to be had on reflection ... but an FAA corsair was what I was REALLY after!! A truly awesome kit ... now just needing Euro-Theatre operational decals and some clipped wings I guess ... Rog
cib2265 Posted November 6, 2014 Posted November 6, 2014 Got mine today - and yes a FAA version would be brilliant - I wonder if you can clip the wings? 1
JaseGill Posted November 6, 2014 Posted November 6, 2014 Will this be for sale at Telford? If it is that could be my major purchase (or a ZM Ho229 I wish) at the show... J.
Dave J Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Got mine today - and yes a FAA version would be brilliant - I wonder if you can clip the wings? Yes you can, Brett Green did it on his birdcage in How to Model the F4U Book... 1
cib2265 Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Yes you can, Brett Green did it on his birdcage in How to Model the F4U Book... Thanks Dave - I've got his Spitfire and Mustang books, I'll have to get the F4U one!
rkranias Posted December 6, 2014 Posted December 6, 2014 Only technique books I've found really all that useful have been Rinaldi's TankArt series... PM inbound.....
cib2265 Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 Only technique books I've found really all that useful have been Rinaldi's TankArt series... Considering you could write technique books yourself Matt, that narrows the field for you! I admit I only have a handful of "hard" reference books, the majority of my library is online stuff (blogs especially are worth much more) but yes the Tankart ones are on the wishlist
Paulster Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 Only technique books I've found really all that useful have been Rinaldi's TankArt series... That and the Jim Weschler book, "How To Build Better Sherman's". Technics he explains, yes…..actually explains how, can be used on almost anything.
