collection. I wrote the following for the original single-picture
review of this model in 2007:
"A good model, and worth getting if you are a Zero fan. I like
the stance it has on its extended gear. Still, the worn green over
silver isn't the most attractive of color schemes."
Well, a bit generous, perhaps. I really re-photographed this model
because I wanted to see if it would be possible to do a photo-update
with my little Canon SX100 point-and-shot. My Nikon D40x is being
repaired, and it looks like it needs a not-so-common part, so there's
been a delay. The Canon just returned from the Canon repair shop after
it got soaked in a Florida/Disneyworld downpour, which caused it to
pack it up.
Over time, I've warmed to these Corgi Zeros, and wished Corgi had
made more versions. As an aside, can you imagine witnessing the real
plane taking off with all the paint chips pealing off every which
way? Doesn't seem like it would engender much confidence... |
