Since Its pretty slow on the 1/18 front, I'll keep an eye on this out of boredom

If it does get sold at a high price, buyer better be a bachelor or the missus gonna go Tender Terror on his a**

Why are these two F-86's so special? I got the latest Historic Aviation that has Mig Mad Marine listed for sale along with the NKA Mig-15.

$550 starting price.

Too rich for me.

Will be keeping an eye on this one, just to see how high it goes.

Wow, I wonder whose it is. Neat piece of 21c history. Way too expensive for a p-51d. but for those who know the history and look for unique pieces, this one sure fits the bill.

[gliderdwm]

I have bought from tradingsammy before on Ebay. He has been slowly selling off 1/18 stuff for months. This appears to be the cream of the crop. definitely legit

Eh, nevermind. It was Mitch's Squitch. But Historic Aviation does still have them in their catalog and online.

the mavis is one of a kind bought it direct from the owner of 21C

[tko211]

Mig Mad Mavis was going to be one of the follow up releases. I didn't realize they got as far as having a prototype proof made. Awesome score!

[Grognard]

Still amazes me how much folks are willing to pay for a toy. Wish I had that kind of spare change in my pocket.

[AMERICAN_GRENADIER]

i think the best one is the HUFF

[NWarty]

i think the best one is the HUFF

Agreed.

The first time I remember the Huff was visiting my father in Florida in 1981 when I was six years old when he had built a 1/48 Hasagawa F-86. Flash forward to the Time-Life books of the early 1980's and the volume "Fighting Jets" with the artwork of Thompson's Huff.

To me, the Huff made the Sabre as popular as it is today.

[gouchy]

Sold for $549.99

still less then what the proto me109 bids are up to now, $570 with 4 days to go

[Buckyroo]

I thought that it would go for more $$$. I guess one never knows.

Good old disposable income! I dispose of mine alright: food, utilities, car note, etc.

[snake]

$550 is still a lot of money for a 1/18 P-51.

Especially as it is a repaint from an existing mold.

Same applies to the desert Me 109.

But hey, if you can afford it.

[Mad Sam]

Ability to afford is one thing - I can very easily convince myself that the requirement is real, and the spend is justified.

However, when I conduct a risk analysis of the consequences following Mrs 'Mad Sam' discovering how much I paid, I realise the stark truth is that the 'confirm bid' button will never ever be pressed.
