Profile Series - Kit 2-1108-100
F4U-1 Corsair - 1/72 Scale
Marine Reserve, Columbus

The kit must be 30+ years old. The decals were almost unusable so I weathered it poorly.











Tiger Model - Kit No. 14
F4U-4 Corsair; Toy Scale
Bunker Hill

Wild toy. Wings fold for carrier storage. Tail fin moves in place. All rockets and external tanks are movable.













Merry Christmas, ya’ filthy animals.

That mini Corsair is an exact replica of one I built a year or so ago, same markings and everything.

Great job! If you ever get the chance to see a Corsair fly at an air show, do it. You will see why the Japanese called them “Whistling Death”.

Nice! Never have heard of the profile series...although I don't build in 1/72. Looks heavy on the rivets. Great work!!!
