White Stuka

Post by 812boys » Thu Mar 01, 2012 1:40 pm

Hey guys I just came across one of these I looked it up and found it on here in the reference room. I can not recall ever seeing one at retail but I did get into the game late in 2005. Are these things rare or easy to come by and I have just never noticed them? Thanks, Nathan

they were one of the earlier releases, so fairly rare now. I think they are one of the higher priced stukas now, along with the snake one.

Personally, i would just buy a cheaper green one, whichever you can find and then give it a whitewash with white paint. Will look way more realistic then the 21c winter stuka does and probably save you $100.

Back when Walmart carried these, I found a whole stack of green and white Stukus for 15.00 each!
I loaded up a cart over flowing with these and sold most of them on Ebay.
I loved the looks of the people in the store and in line. Some older guy said, "Wow, some little boy is going to have fun!" I just replied, "Yeah, he will."

Thanks guys I all ready have two different stuka's. I just came across one of these on ebay and wondered what it was. I wish I could have came across them for $15 about the best deal I have found was a local guy selling off a bunch of early releases for retail price the guy thought he was the one getting the better deal but I kept a smile on face all the way home when I picked up a 1/18th scale Cobra helicopter for $46.51 I ended up with a few of them and sold one on ebay a few years back for $250. Thanks for the info guys, Nathan
