Default New arrivals to my "hobby" collection

Added a few new planes to my diecast collection this month, have to be careful though as they cost a small fortune so cant get as many as i would like

Stanford Tuck Hurricane


Ian Gleed Hurricane


Flying "can opener" Desert Hurricane with 40mm Vickers "S" gun


The 3 new Hurricanes together


A great looking plane/scheme - my new PR Spitfire








The 4 new buys together


And the new BoB Hurricanes with the my older BoB Hurries
Though to many to fit on the diorama properly haha.


My Hurricane fleet is growing, thats 13 i have now, always room for more.
Next on my want list is a couple of BoB Spitfires but they are rather expensive, also a FAA Hellcat(looks great with d-day stripes).

Any recommendations as to what would look good in the collection? Unfortunately i cant change the squadron markings etc as they are already printed on. But what WW2 plane do you think should be added next, and why?

Many thank Olife

The Hellcat isn't in many numbers when it comes to diecast, but theirs enough i'm eyeing up either the FAA (Fleet Air Arm) d-day hellcat, a pacific hellcat or a vietnam french hellcat. As for Japanese all i have so far is the Zero but im not to pleased with it. Their could be room for more....

As for the D520... I dont think they do one i will check though.

Should maybe look at the new list for wings of steel, and try for a small collection of both games not all as i can imagine that would cost a fortune lol.......... if possible that is, as im not a collector, i dont know whats avail and whats not..

I could get a specific plane, but couldn't match the decals as they are diecast and already imprinted..... trying to alter them is wayyyyy out of my league.

For example -

The Hurricane in BoP - I would just use any of the BoB hurricanes from the pic above...

The Heinkels... i'd just use one Heinkel that i have.

Other wise i would be spending a fortune Which i'd love to do don't get me wrong... i just cant

Olife...

Does this meet your approval? Its one i'm currently looking to purchase and add to my collection. It can go with my FAA planes (Swordfish and Hurricane).
