Rcboater Bill Posted November 14, 2020 #1 Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) This is a big model- about 20 inches long. Kit is complete, with decals and flag sheet. Note that it is the Japanese release of the kit, so the printed notes on the instructions are not in english. The assembly instructions are pictorial with no text, so the only part you may miss is the names of the colors in the color table. The box had blue paint spilled on it- one end panel and one side panel have paint splashes. I understand this kit is rather rare- according to Scalemates, it was last released in 1980. Recent sale prices on eBay range from $50 to $130, so I think offering mine at $60 ( plus shipping from New Hampshire) is reasonable.

mtdoramike Posted November 15, 2020 #2 Posted November 15, 2020 Unfortunately the spilled blue paint on the box kind of ruins the rarity aspect of the kit since the box makes up 50% of the collectability of the kit. Although I do like the splash of blue, it gives it character. Gregory, shipman and lmagna 3
