Need your review: HBG's Bf-109

Oh, btw, as for the warped/bent tails on some of HBG’s aircraft, I’ve found dunking them in a cup of very hot water for a few minutes usually solves or at least improves the problem.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll try that out on my warped bomber tail.

Basically, you’re re-heating the resin that makes the sculpt, and in-turn making it more pliable vs brittle… heat it up, then straighten the tail, and it cools and hardens in the correct/fixed position… I’ve been able to fix or at least improve several using this method.

While I love the tanks, troops, mech, etc… I’ve only ordered HBG plane wise, was the “going nuclear” pack, and the bombers we’re really bad, so much I threw them out. The issue was the wings flopped around like a bird, in addition it wasn’t a smooth cast.

I cannot speak to their Me-109, but HBG’s Stukas & Fw-190’s are quite nice…

I would make sure to order a few extra above what you need to compensate for possible issues.

HBG has always done right by me.

@C_Strabala:

HBG has always done right by me.

I agree, they (or he) is great, and I recommend them 100%, even though ive had issues with this/that, I don’t even really care, the good over shadows the bad so much, I don’t even care about the bad.

Yep, yep… HBG always done right by me… HBG has received a LOT of my money over the past year, and while I have had the occasional mix up here or there, his attention to customer service and correcting any problems are always swift and sure.

HBG has my full endorsement.

Hey, I answered your question… I am a collector… just not of sculpts I already have from OOB!  lolz.

P.S.
Everyone should love HBG and appreciate them (obligatory response in this thread).

@AlphaKappa:

Haha alright, so this is an HBG appreciation thread now.  :-D

I guess no one here bought the fighter in question?  I thought you guys were collectors.  What gives!   :wink:

Lol

Looks like you have a pretty good collection already. I have about $100 invested after buying both of the global games and still nowhere close to where I want to be. Nice setup though
