Corgi Sets its Sights on 2019

Just one week into the new year, Corgi has announced their entire 2019 lineup. Previously, the Company had unveiled their annual releases in six-month increments so it looks as if 2019 marks a departure of sorts for this longstanding model maker.

While a number of new aircraft were announced, what really struck us was the return of their 1:50 scale military vehicles series, a line that had performed very well over a decade ago when it was first offered but has since languished on the back burner without so much as a feeble attempt to dust it off and bring it back from the dead. No new toolings make up this re-purposed range, however, we feel confident that its return will do quite well, particularly since 2019 marks the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings, advance across northwest Europe and, of course, the Battle for the Ardennes.
