These have been sold out everywhere...Wartoyz just got a few in stock. $90 is pricey but if you want one this may be your last chance..

These were sold out as of this morning, they must have found 1 or 2 somewhere.

OH, thanks for making us all think we need to grab 'em up like free gold coins right now....I don't have the money for one right now. But here's a real question- where did they all go? they never showed up at box stores (in any real quantity), I didnt think they were fast movers with etailers. Is monkey depot gonna get a multitude of them or what?

I am hoping they show up at Monkey Depot.

I imagine people see the writing on the wall and are getting whatever they can/want while they can, so things are starting to sell out quickly now.

MD had these at the very beginning of the sale, but their last comment was they doubted they would get more....

Thanks! My friend wanted one but didn't like the 90 dollars price tag.

OK, maybe they'll last a little bit longer....

My guess regarding the current Yellow 7 run is that a lot of people were not overly thrilled with the Yellow 7 paint scheme and were waiting on the sidelines to see what the series two paint scheme would be before making a final purchase decision on a relatively expensive bird.

But, as it now appears that no series two release will be forthcoming anytime soon people are pulling the trigger now instead of waiting for one on ebay.

It would be interesting to know what the production numbers on Yellow 7 were given that it didn't make it to WM or TRU. Perhaps the numbers would be in line with the latest California Cutie P-38 production run?

I've used 3000toys before and I like them. I've never used GreatModels, but it looks like some of their sale prices are pretty good.

Thank you for sharing, Vulgar!

Sure. I've used Great Models before and would recommend them.

This is exactly my reasoning on this plane. I put it off, but just picked one up tonight because I would at least like to have one. I missed out when MD had them.

They're seem to be out of stock everywhere now.

My local Hobbytown USA store had a couple for around $75 when I was last there a couple weeks ago

Thanks, tman - I see that there are a couple of stores in Upstate NY. Might check them out.

Also, there are 4 on ebay from the same seller in China that I just got my BH Avenger from. It's the shipping cost that makes me think twice.
