Fullofit Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 It’s an odd one this one. In Hobbyboss catalogue this box art is associated with item 80385 - F4U-2 Corsair. This catalogue number corresponds with the rest of HB Corsairs. Now, if you go on HB website and go to 2023-07 product update, this box art has the catalogue number 81788 labelled as F4U-1A/2 Corsair. Could it be a dual combo release? Competition for the soon to be released Magic Factory set? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
