Diecast Airplane Warbird News - End of June, 2008
The fourth of July is around the corner. This is one of my favorite holidays. It's great to live in a free country. It's also an awesome responsibility. Enjoy the fireworks.
July 4 Special - Save 20% Franklin Mint Aircraft:
Franklin Mint has once again authorized a discount promotion. It's not as big a price reduction as the last one, but that was on selected close out models. This time the Franklin Mint Airplane sale is across the board. All prices are marked down 20% through July 4, 2008
Special Note: The Franklin Mint PBY Catalina is starting to come in. We got two this week as samples. Our main shipment if arriving Mid-July. This model is selling well, so make sure to get your model on order to be one of the first to get this model.
1:200 Scale Warbirds. This scale has been well recieved and the detail on these birds is amazing. Be sure to check out the newest arrivals below from Gulliver, Herpa, and Hogan.
Century Wings - Upcoming models are posted below. Century is also releasing their first models in 1:144 scale. These models are presold out from the distributor, but we have slots left on our preorder list so order one of these soon if you are interested.
HobbyMaster - Another brand that is going great guns with each new release selling out quickly. We have the upcoming list through September and more to be added soon.
New at diecast Airplane - Our own blog. Check out the first blog from Steve about our office trip to Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome. Coming soon: I'll be attending the Geneseo NY airshow in July (home of the 1941 Historical Aircraft Museum) and will post info and pictures about my trip to this great Warbird Fly-in.
Fly Safe and watch for incoming fireworks,
