Hey Guys,

The original post was an inquiry about the series within of those particular planes listed.

For example:, would the Snake Stuka be more scarce than the other desert Stuka.?

Or is the Candy cane FW-190D the more scarce of the FW-190D series?

It wasn't about the planes et al.

I'm sure in general there are planes more scarce in other series than those I posed the question about.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. :wink:

Thanks for all the replies.

For production models.

Not sure of a correct answer, but think, and just my opinion, that the Me 262 seems scarce, I mean rare, and probably that is what you are looking for.

Certainly not a fact, but an observation.

With the twin seater even higher on the rare list.

Just love saying rare :lol:

Speaking of the Snake Stuka , you never use to see it around much compared with the desert Stuka...which i am still after....Now all i see out there are the Snake ones and of course the other earlier ones.

I consider a run of 500, and a Badcat exclusive rare.

If you don't, I don't really care. Don't bid or buy.

And btw, I have sold a grand total of six models on Ebay over the years, so not exactly a major online retailer.

You do seem to be really hung up on the word rare, rudedog. Your opinion of what it is, is exactly that. Your opinion. Mine differs considerably.

Glad to see my BBI F-18 listings get so much of your attention. :wink:

anything i feel is over priced i watch with interest to see how the general public react's to it .and again the word rare is over used i am super sick of hearing or seeing it .these are grown up toys nothing more if you are that hung up on them i get it. not everone feels as passionat about a plastic toy as you seem too. i collect real cars i own a 440 six pack 69 charger r/t full options with all papers that is rare even in your world. i also own all kind of other toys all of them my kids will get. this not a fight or any thing personal its just toys!!!!!!!! also keep in mind you can't take it with you. is the spelling better for you. lol

Did you know there is an additional classification known as "ultra-rare"?

What's your opinion on that?

Have to agree, Normandy.

If rudedog would just relax a bit over the use of the word rare by other people, might do his blood pressure some good, and he can enjoy his 69 Charger R/T 440 six pack for a few more years.

Like he says, they are only models/ adult toys, so not sure why he is getting so worked up about this.

I have rarely seen this kind of reaction. :wink:

My wife and I went to a diner late one night, and I happened to get the last steak they had.

I ordered it rare.

im done and my blood pressure is fine thx for asking. i am not of the p/c world i speak what's on my mind and unforunatly opinions run high sometimes and yes it can turn into a pissing match so i will be the first to say im sorry it was a good question gone wrong. rare is in the eye of the beholder and how badly the other person s want's are. that's all i will say on the matter. no hard fellings hope none taken. did the steak moo at you? lol oh hush cat you and i have caused enough trouble for now. mine or snake on ultra rare thats a myth right?
