zemperor beat me to it. hehehe.

generally the lancaster is okay la. all i can say is don't expect much diecast in this "diecast" collection... but for rm9.90, go get 'em while they last (before comrade blu3hamm3r sapu all)!

both gb and au edition issue #20. mebbe my also same kot. quality doesn't look off... it looks BAD. look at the under fuselage seams... they have problem there. i think it's bacause top diecast, bottom plastic... expansion/shrink factor difference.

anyway, looking forward to the sr-71 blackbird and the f111 aardvark...

But...
MAL and SG Subscriber offer (unconfirm yet):

Look like the free gift is different... hope AllScript did bring the better free gift.

makes sense for uk collectors... the spitfire, hurricane and the harrier (plus the nighthawk). don't think the nighthawk will make it's debut as an issue since it's a fighter, not a bomber... and since allscript never provides additional freegifts, it's sadly safe to presume we won't be seeing the nighthawk. it's a good thing they didn't dish out free fighters/helicopters that were already released before though (fac/hc).

I saw this model @ AlScript today- Scale 1:144

The details are simply not refined (at this scale I think) vmad.gif

Its a  skip for me - maybe the whole series if all are at 1:144 or 1:200 scale .........  tongue.gif
*
whoa dm101... you want the lancaster in 72??? shocking.gif they're not called GIANT warplanes for nothing and while i appreciate a same scale collection, at 72 these will be HUGE. as it is i'm finding a hard time finding the space to display my sea dragon...

comrade strikermac, although the italeri spirit lacks the landing gear that amercom has (not that it's well built anyway), it certainly has far better detailing than the amercom version. between the two i'd go for the italeri... if u can find one at the price of the giant warplane collection though.

Where you get B-2 that early? Ebay or Taobao?
Anyway I think Italeri is sure better and detail.
*
ebay. generally italeri models are more detailed, have better payload and overall workmanship... just no landing gears. amercom models are pretty much a bunch of hit and misses. some are good... not all. and i think issue #2 subscription sweetener is given because there's very low interest and demand for this freighter. i'm going ahead with completing the amercom series, though. wonder what allscript will bring in next. i'm guessing amercom's fire engine series.

Congra anyway. thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif
The B-52 look bigger than others, nice.

I still looking forward for it, didn't have mood yet to collect it. tongue.gif

yups... the stratofortress sure is huge but generally quality so so only. the entire package was pretty light and i do observe white glue residue on the warplanes through its blister pack (can be easily wiped off, though). one of the free gifts had a slanted (but easily rectifiable) landing hear. but again i say, for the price you pay, really no complaints icon_rolleyes.gif

have yet opened them. no more space to display sweat.gif
