Hello guys, if anyone know if the Cox P-40 Flying tiger had/has a reproduction made of them? Making it not original? Is theres anyway to tell if its reproduction, scam? original? date? How to tell if the engine is original? Or the stickers? Body? I bought one saying its new/un-assembled, which doesn't sit right with me knowing most of them i see are opened or assembled
I will post pictures of it later, just want some info from you guys that do know about them, Thanks!

The Cox P-40 is a very popular model here. Quite easy to tell them from other P-40 models (Testors etc.) Some P-40 engines had P-40 stamped on the cylinders, some very faint but visible. Just tap in P-40 in "Search" (above right) and you will find a lot of information regarding them.

Cox changed the P40 name to Warhawk in the late 60s. All early P40s came assembled, its possible the later models (90s) came unassembled but would have been Warhawk.
