Greetings!
Having read the forum posts here for several years and finally signing up recently, I thought I would share my Wings of Glory collection as it stands this month.
Of course it all began years ago with this lovely gift:
Sadly my kids have accidentally broken my WW1 planes so those WW1 planes will be some of my next purchases this summer.
For now my focus has been on 1/144 scale WW2 aircraft! And I am in love with these planes. It’s impossible to pick a favorite. Anyone else feel that way? I have a special love in my heart for the P-51D Mustang!
Watching eBay I snagged a few of the 21st Century Toys version as well:
And then I picked up this lovely lady on sale:
And she needed some company from 21st Century Toys as well:
Which led me to pick up some bad guys for them to Dogfight!
And then the Nazi’s needed some company:
Annnnnnnnd I just couldn’t resist the 21st Century Toys baddies!
I found the costal Wings of Glory Mat on sale so of course we’re gonna need Pacific fighters!
And my newest addition is the fantastic F-Toys Bf109E-4:
Im really enjoying collecting the planes and hope to have more WW2 planes to add to the squadron soon. I’m completely lacking RAF fighters! Which are some of my favorite aircraft!
Customizing the bases will be my next step. The metal ball magnet method appeals to me do I shall be attempting that this weekend. We shall see how it fairs.... That’s my collection so far. More to come!
Signing off from Arkansas USA!
