Korean war aircraft

[Matt J]

hi All

Having trouble finding anything in 1/144 or 1/150 scale that fits in with the Korean war, can anyone point me in right direction preferably US or Soviet -

F4U Corsair
F51D Mustang
F80 shooting star
F86 Sabre

MIG 15

Thanks in advance 

Matt

Bit pricey now.

Would be its 1/48 scale

That might not be the one I was looking for then ...

I was looking for the Eduard 1:144 Mig 15 ... but it seems to have been discontinued.

Sorry.

[Matt J]

Have you got aircraft for your own project or is that something you're not too concerned about?

[fsn]

I've got the Eduard Mig 15s, and they're lovely little kits.

I'm sure Revell used to do a Corsair, but that's gone now too.

Sweet (despite the box art) do some nice little kits (2 to a box). Certainly a Mustang, but I'm not sure who distributes in the UK ... if anyone.

I second that.  I got most of my 1/144 1950s airpower via Hannants - picked up the Meteor and Corsair as F Toys on ebay.

Cheers guys, Hannants it is then

Didn't Revell miniwings do a Corsair. We used a couple in our CWC Gloster Hill game for WIs 300th edition "last stands".

I think "did" rather than "do".

Because of the lack of 1:144 stuff for Early war polish I went down the 1:300 route. they look ok when on a rod 8 inches above the table

Hi

Nothing specific  and even my favourite HobbyLink Japan is coming up dry but two sites I've found handy for bits and pieces in 1/144 are:-

https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/1144modelsau

http://www.kits-shop.com/index.php

Australian and Czech sites but you can't have everything  

Edit: Also just thought of this one for challenging resin models - http://airalex.homestead.com/KITSFORSALE.html



Cheers
