  • Good morning - here is the video review of the @corgi_official swordfish Aa36311 from the war under the sun range representing an aircraft from the fleet air arm during operation Torch - the invasion of Vichy France held North Africa - based on the carrier HMS Biter and briefly on Gibraltar. It’s great to see this old lady back in the aviation archive range after such a long period - and wearing a quite unusual scheme with an unusual load out of 6 bombs! Take a look at the previous post with the pics as well to see some more detailed shots. What are your thoughts?? This was bought from @lofties_hobbies and is also available on the link above #corgi #corgiaviationarchive #aircraft #aviation #aviationgeek #aviationphotography #aviationdaily #instagram #instadaily #warbirds #swordfish #operationtorch #scalemodelling #photography #modelaircraft #airfix #diecast #aviationlovers #diecastwingscollectors @lofties_hobbies

    The Corgi Swordfish & Gladiators are really some of their best models! The wire rigging is so well done!
    The 48th scale ww1 models are likewise impressive but this tiny swordfish has always impressed me & I'm a model builder!😊

      It astounds me it’s been missing for 12 years! Great aircraft and it’s back story is brilliant as well - you can hold have to be brave and slightly mad to fly these!

    Hi Mark, apart from what you mention in regards to paint on fuselage/cowling what's up with the paint on the port side lower wing root support as on video the paint and/or the plastic support strut looks really rough? As always though, nice video and good we got this as an Op Torch. Does seem that quality has really dropped though overall but specifically if compare this model with previous Swordfish releases so seems factory not up to standard.

      Completely agree mistake after mistake - thankfully this doesn’t really detract from the model much but they need to up their game with prices as high as they are
