Small Scale Military Headquarters

Surfing around in ebay and I think there are more 21st Tigers there than I have seen in some time. Haven't tracked any of them to see exactly what they are ultimately selling for, but the beginning bids are all in the $70-$90 range. Seems a little higher than the average prices over the last several months.

so are panzer iv's.

Well, Christmas is coming. I was bidding on the panzer but it got too rich for my blood.

i was lucky enough to snag one of these a couple of years ago for $50 from a guy in scotland who had a bunch of them. It's a nice piece but no way worth over $100. You could get an r/c panzer iv, make some skirts on your own and do a better paint job than the exclusive has.

True - I got one for about 80 bucks last year. just wanted one to squirrel away or give to a friend whos into this stuff as well.

I got my Panzer IV from my local Hobbytown USA store back when they were first released...

Funny to see the Tigers so expensive. There is more than one small retailer that is selling the "eastern front cammo" version for under $70. My local Hobbytown even has one in the winter scheme for around $57. It has never sold for some reason and I should just pick it up for that price

I posted a while back ago that a shop here was selling them for $39.99 and nobody ever jumped on them.. I know he still has 6 or more left.
Oh well, its not Ebay....

I got one from him as well.
That was cheaper than Bad Cat sold them for.

Holy cow! I think I would gladly part with mine for $200+ bones. I wonder if the guys buying these are speculators or simply collectors with deep pockets. I came late to the 1/18 game and missed all those TRU and WM sales where everyone got Panthers for pocket change, but I still have rarely paid more than retail for the pieces I have.

I did pay dearly for the two European PzIVs that I got, but was able to trade one for a P-38 and Sherman which I thought was pretty fair.

I bought the Eastern Front Tiger for $49 with free shipping not too long ago. They can still be had. Have the original one, but need the Winter one.

Got a few of the Panzers, two RC's and one non RC. Funny the non RC Panzer will go higher than an RC one. Don't have that Euro exclusive though.

The Panthers are fairly pricey now except for the latest one, well it's pricey to begin with.
The Winter version is fetching good prices, but not as much as the D-Day speckled one.
I managed to snag the Winter version before they dissapeared from retail.

I always wanted the european PZ IV but didn't really want to pay the high prices back then. I was hoping that 21st would release a version with the skirts, but that never happened, and now I don't have that much of a desire to add that piece of armour to my collection.
