OK, so while I was looking through the Rocking Horse poo for the MD11, I also came across another kit, that I am letting go

However this kit is really

really
really
rare

or in ebay
speak

R@RE

So no

mates discount

on this R@RE kit

So, it shows a price of JPY9800 a lot for a 1/200th scale kit, BUT, did I mention it's R@RE

XE currency shows

9,800.00 JPY = 124.600 AUD

NFI what the exchange rate was when I bought it

it's on a take it or leave it basis with the 60C discount just cos you guys are the best

so will sell for $124 plus postage

TOR probably has about 4 of these, but otherwise they are rare

I now look like I will be going to EXPO, so can bring down for any MEL buyers if that happens.

Inspection reveals that the resin fin is slightly bent from years of storage, otherwise as new

About the only thing that is not rare on eBay is the use of the word rare :lol: .
So.......what is it???, or have I missed something??

Yeah......about the best 747SP kit in any scale and well worth Graeme's asking price.
I am fortunate in that I have the PanAm boxing of this one sitting in the stash, (with Braz "short body" RB211s), waiting to be done as a Qantas bird. The Platz Dash 8 is also a beautiful little kit.
TOR
PS: I could be tempted Graeme.

C'mon Ray, you know you want it, :lol: you need it to make another QF bird, :D there were 3 different schemes you know (of course you do)
and I do think I have a set of appropriate Rollers for it, but my memory is never a guarantee


I have nearly all the Platz airliner range, helped that the stepson lived in Tokyo, and we used to visit a lot.
Still looking for the shuttle decals when I get time

One can never tell what will be found in the Rocking Horse Stable, it's very messy, I think I need some help, but Paul left. :lol:
