I just bought 2 of these as I was looking for a model of a C47 Dakota. Thought it might be of interest to some of you.
Hasagawa has different models of the C47 but they cost about 13€ each (without delivery). Then I found the Zvezda ones. For less than 10€ I have 2 and they are deliverd. There seems to be less panel lines in the Zvezda model but in 1/200 I don't really care about that. The Zvezda model has clear windows where the Hasagawa ones are to be painted or decals.
My plan is to paint at least one of them like a british C47's to go along with my spitfires. That means the turret has to go and new decals will need to be found.

I'll leave one in the Russian configuration as it is a very interesting plane to use together with the Yak's that come in the first WOG airplane series. The Li-2 was also used as a bomber and had some defensive weaponry on board. On the link below I found a lot of usefull information.

When they are finished I'll post some pictures of course
