Wrong...$20 for the all metal Flak kit.

It's a Resin base.

And you're right, it's a PT20.

Float version!

I know, you hate me... I must be feeling better...I am obnoxious again!

Might be $20.00 MP but its still a Flak 37 at heart. Maybe a Dragon instruction sheet might help steer you through construction. Looks like the same basic parts.

Do it Chuck!!

 

[Kreighshoer]

Can someone tell me what I have?

No instructions but it looks pretty straight forward.

you lucky, lucky bastard! :stinker

ulrich puchala is well known in germany for having made superb white metal figures (nowadays resin)! the level of quality of his products is outstanding!

he once had a beautiful range of 1/32 scale luftwaffe figures but changed to 1/16 due to his eye problems ...

'nuff talkin - for 20,-$ this white metal flak is a steal as it's an ultimately rare item and worth much, much more than that!

 

[moon puppy]

So...to build or sell?

 

[kryptosdaddy]

I'll give ya what you paid for it! lol I think you should hold on to it and try to investigate the product- looks like you have something as rare as my G-mark copter, but yours is near mint.


Check this Bob, someone sold some of his guns here....its the second pic. doesnt expand but you get the idea. Hold on a min, I'm gonna go bury my wallet out in the yard....

Damn, Even I would hang on to that one!

I always am suspicious of these "valued at" prices. I value my pickup truck at about $40,000 because that's what it would cost to replace it, but I could never bring that much in market.

I could put this out on Ebay and put a price tag of $400.00 and it would never sale, but someone searching the "value" of it and find my listing, "Wow! It's worth $400.00!!!"

I'll wait to see what happens.

BTW, checking Ebay...I see this same kit for 12 euros, which is about 15 bucks.

Could have been old auctions? I googled it and saw that, couldn't bring up the Auction itself.

Some people are none too bright!

I picked up a Choroszy 1/48 scale kit a couple of years ago for $16 + $2.50 postage. The kit retailed for $65. I emailed him after the transaction that he had grossly undervalued the kit and his response was "who cares?" His father had died and he just wanted to sell off all the "old man's crap."

 

[Rob -MadAsKiwi- Mooar]

Here's my first purchase in many months.. and something I've been wanting for quite some time, but until now has not been available locally.

 

[Bagge]
