Recent purchase of 2 Hurricanes tapped me out for time being!

Then I bid on a Corsair-Zero Dogfight pack, fortunately I won it, unfortunately it cost me $57! OUCH!![]()



Could have bought a 1:18 Spitfire or a Corgi Mosquito for that price.
Guess I should be thankful.

Certain 32X aircraft and DF sets have been fetching some pretty insane prices on ebay lately, but there seems to be a fairly good, steady supply on most of them, so with a little patience and persistence it's still possible to bring home fairly good deals. That being said, be prepared to pay about double what they originally sold for at retail.you got a great deal. Latest Corsair-Zero Dogfight tonight went for .....$170.00...

Yeah I'll wait for the next ones to come up if they go too high. That's ridiculous.
Rarely will I pay double, but sometimes I do. The highest so far (other than this Dogfight pack) for one aircraft I think was a "Miss Bonnie" at $32. Luckily I have most everything 21st 1/32 give or take a few pieces.
Some people just gotta have them though.
Funny how one week they're around what I paid or slightly lower or higher, then the next week crazy prices.
Think I'd have a major case of buyer's remorse if I forked out that amount.

...oh yeah $31.00 plus $9.00 shipping. About the same price for a 1:18 plane at Walmart back in the day.
Times have changed
and I'm still missing a couple of 262's. They seem to be climbing in price lately for an older mold.
Good thing I got the "Red B" (uh that one is missing from the database) a while ago at TRU. It's the most outrageously ending priced one these days.

Just picked up the elusive "Double Nuthin" on ebay tonite. I sniped it off in the very last seconds, and it's always a good feeling when you can pull it off.Rowsdower wrote:My favorite 21st Mustangs are the B model Shangrila and the D model double Nuthin' with the checkerboard tail. Not sure about availability though.

In the standard 21st green 32X LE box. The guy lives pretty close by, and he PM'd me to say he'll ship tomorrow by priority mail, so I should have it in a few days.Did you get it in the 21st green box or....

The green box is rarer I think. I never saw it at any Walmarts and believe me I hunted everywhere in my area. I managed to score 2 of the Target ones though.
Not that the box matters to me that much but I like the fact that the 21st box puts the little label in the corner that tells you who flew the plane and what squadron.

Coolness!

I can see it's Grant Smith that flew the plane. (no label on my red/black box) can't quite make out the rest of it with the squadron etc.
Can't remember but those look like Japanese kill flags, which would mean Pacific theatre? Yellow stripes on the wings also could mean Pacific too if I'm not mistaken. Though the checkertail Razorback P-47 is Europe Theatre I think.
I dunno.

Two Jap flags and one German. This is an MTO bird operating in the Italy area.

319th Fighter Squadron, 325th Fighter Group, 18th Air Force, Lesina Italy, early 1945. As far as I can tell the 319th never fought in the Pacific, so the Japanese kill flags are a mystery to me.can't quite make out the rest of it with the squadron etc.
