I was surprised by the quality of the tanks...not as many issues as i saw with the opels or have heard(and seen on mine) Fw 190Fs.

I might pick them up in an hour when I head to market to get something to cook for tonight.

Ebay 3 and keep one, although I am not sure, since I went back to 1:35, FOV and 21st seem huge, like the 38(t) will dwarf my Tamiya Masterwork Pz IV.

On a side note. Nice new boxes with windowns all round, so you can see the tank clearly...no figures or anything else though..but the details on the tank are clean and crisp.

Hey why "ebay 3," man? Leave some for the next collector that comes along! It hardly sounds like they're clogging the shelves there...

I found those in my town as well - and was pleasantly surprised. They were nearly impossible to find at TRU and then four show up at Wal Mart. I picked up one more as I like this little tank

I would be careful trying that... these have been up on ebay for several weeks now, and the "novelty" of the new model has sort of worn off to a certain extent, and you could end up being stuck with an extra 2 or 3 tanks you really didn't really want.

I'd just put them up at cost..15.xx price with tax, then box(1.00) and USPS cost for shipping

I got a bunch of 1:32 stuff I don't really want as is.

prob saw them in the same place as me.

right now I got my eye on the Dragon 1/35 Panther coming out next month as my next armour purchase.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't see how you could make anything like that....?? Your listing fees and final value fees are gonna run you a couple bucks, and if you get paid with Paypal that's going to cost you about a buck and when it's all said and done you're gonna be $3.00 in the hole, not counting the time and effort to box them up and haul them to the post office etc.

JK!

Seriously though, WM, TRU and Target distribution have no love for my AO.

no I normally make 4-5$ profit on new 21st with ebay after fees, although I got some good returns on the opel when they were new.
Not in this to make money, I have a job for that. This is just a hobby.

I guess they figure all you rich 'callies are too busy with your horse farms.

Pretty soon there won't be any horse farms left. They just tore up two huge and famous old farms for more housing projects and a giant outdoor mall with hotels and all that. "Horse country" is quickly turning into unchecked urban sprawl country.
