For Sale 1/18 ZODIAC LOWER PRICE
Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 12:54 pm
This is an RC (remote control) 1/18ish (probably more like 1/19 or 1/20) Zodiac H733 RIB used by Navy SEALs and other special ops around the world. It is a New Bright brand RC vehicle I got at Toys R Us a few years ago and customized. It is a rather cheap RC boat that runs on 6 AA batteries and the TX uses 2 AA batteries. I think I paid ~$40 with tax new. I spent a few hours modifying it and painting it to get it where it is now.
It has only been in the water once but performed well. It isn't very fast and I wouldn't take it into anything other than a still body of water. I assume it still works but haven't tested it.
I'm trying to clear out my basement and this needs to go to make room. Here is a diagram of the real Zodiac H733 which I used to customize this RC model:
Here are shots of mine (it is a little dusty but easily cleaned):
Here are some with it loaded up:
I'm asking $60 for it (not including shipping) and it'll come with the 50cal machine guns and the custom stand - yes it is made out of Tinker Toy pieces but works nicely. I'll also throw in the 3 FOV SEAL figures, 1 BBI SEAL figure (with fins on), and 1 BBI DELTA Night Operator figure (wearing NODs). I'll also throw in a couple gas cans, MRE boxes and whatever comes with the figures that isn't pictured.
I'm keeping my PTE figures.
Shipping will probably be similar to any 21st Cent or BBI 1/18 model as it is similar size and weight box. I have the original box for this and I think I have some of the original boxes for the figures as well and will include with them.
If you don't like the RC bottom on this you could always band saw it flat and glue on a piece of styrene so it would sit flat on a shelf for display and you wouldn't need the stand or the long rudders.
Thanks,
Phil
