No, the thing is, I already found them, cheap, I need to know if they are rare, in other words, I dont collect planes, but I am thinking to buy one if it is rare
Thanks

Rare? They aint yet buddy but I would pick them up if you have the cash. They are worth it.

Well, I definatly cant afford them all...
Which would you say is the best?
I kind of like the Corsair, But I wish the BF-109 wasn't black, black is my favorite color, but it looks weird black
Thanks

The 21c "Eagleston" P-47 is not rare, with many still to be found in quantity at Wal Mart and small retailers. The 21c "Eileen" & "Snortin Bull" P-47s are a little harder to find at Wal Mart, but most small retailers still carry them so they are not rare. The BBI Corsair "Marines Dream" can still easily be found at many TRUs and with many small retailers. The black ME-109E is the most rare of the planes you have mentioned. Some may be occasionaly found at Wal Mart, and many small retailers (including Bad Cat) are sold out. If you are looking for the rarest plane, get this one, however, I would get the BBI Corsair as well. While that is not exactly rare, it is one of the best 1:18 aircraft out there in terms of overall detail and paintjob

$40 for an XD plane is pretty good. Yeah they could get discounted, but including shipping, you'd be paying over $60 for a similar plane from a small retailer!

None have been reported. The other three variants are avaliable at Wal Mart - the S1 "Graff" variant (with the red nose) is avaliable all over the western US, and the "Sahl" BF-109s (with the blue fuselage stripe) and "Hackl" BF-109s (with the yellow fuselage stripe) are being spotted from the mid-west to the east coast. The "Rall" BF-109G could feasably show up at Wal Mart, but you may have to wait a very long time. Pay the extra $$ and get one from a small retailer while you can!

The Rall 109 looks like an on-line special release plane. I wouldn't plan on it making it to WM any time soon. It was released along side the Luftwaffe F-104 and that aircraft won't see WM either....

Moth- If you want a Black 109 at a decent price let me know. One of the WM's near me had them for $25 a few weeks back. I'll pick one up if they still have them. Cost- $25 plus VA 4.5% tax and shipping (VA to NY shouldn't be too bad). Kick me a PM or post here if interested (or if anyone else is interested for that matter).

In my AO the "Eagleston" and the Corsair are available but the other planes are scarce. In fact, I never saw the Black 109 at any of the WM's I usually visit.

Between all the Walmarts in my county (8 or 10) I could pick up at least half a dozen of the black 109E-4s.

Just goes to show how spotty the distribution can be with WM. Although, I think the distribution of 21st's newest vehicles (humvees and Dodge trucks) should be better since there have been more sightings across the country posted on this forum.

Any sighting of the new dodge in my area?

BTW, I have noticed the Black BF-109's are common in Wal-mart, but I have yet to see one on an on-line store...
What about you

WM here had 4 Black 109s sitting on the shelf for almost a year, right next to some 190s that sat just as long.

Good observation - they were Walmart exclusive. ToyFed got a bunch at the beginning but the rest went to WM. Before they showed on shelves they were getting over $100 on ebay because people just didn't believe they would show in stores.
