Hi all, I have 2 models that I've been trying to figure out if they are legitimate IDs or after market toys/replicas.
Thought I'd post them here and see what you guys think.
First we have a 1/144 scale clear B-32 with mold gate still attached. I've searched the interwebs high and low and haven't found any info on this. It appears to have the exact same details as the cruver 1/72 ID model. The closest I've come to a look alike is a frosted white version, with props and stickers, on a plastic consolidated base. But they apesr to be made of different material.
Next up is a 1/144 TU-85 barge. This has all the markings of an authentic post war ID, but the plane itself is an odd choice to model as the 85 only had 2 prototypes built with the project cancelled in 1951. The model is stamped 1955.
Also wanted to show off some of my collection with you guys.
My pride and joys are the B-32s and H8K2
Any thoughts or questions welcomed!
