I've wanted a 1/72 Eurofighter Typhoon to add to my collection for a while, but outside of the Corgi version which I personally don't like, nobody else offers a diecast 1/72 Eurofighter. Enter the MRC/Easy Model 1/72 Eurofighter RAF No. 17 Sqn., I picked this model up from a Chinese seller on ebay for just under $20 delivered. It's all plastic, but considering the cost, I think it was pretty nice right out of the box, and I added the following custom details to the basic model: Jet exhaust nozzles in the "open" position, centerline fuel tank, all new nose gear strut & wheel, AMRAAM's on the fuselage, plus 2000 lb. LGB's & Sidewinder missiles on the wing hard points. I think it turned out very nice for a $20 model, and I may eventually get the 2 seater version in German markings.

$20 delivered is a great deal, ostketten.

And she looks pretty good, especially with the additions you have done to it. 8)

Not bad for the price.
