Which CW will become most rare?

My Dad and I were wondering which CW whether it be Tomcat, Intruder, Corsair, or Crusader will after about mmm say five years roughly will be considered the most rare, or most sought after thereby commanding the highest resale prices.
Which do y'all think?

I suspect that it will be the Vandy VX-4 'Black Bunny' ... (the Black Aces version would be a close second followed by a JR initial release).

Re: Which CW will become most rare?

I agree the Black bunny is the most rare bird....Heck i have a Black Aces on ebay and it's doing nothing at this time...
I would pick the Jolly Rogers 2nd.

And you would be wrong JP - just kidding .

Now that you've posted that you've got a Black Aces F14 for sale, watch the bids 'soar' like a Tomcat with afterburners on ...

Smile Re: Which CW will become most rare?

There's an AJ200 JRs F14 currently on $91 with just over two days to go. My US source lucked out on AJ210 for me this week. Fortunately I found an AJ200 in the UK while I was waiting. I was considering getting the Black Bunny or the Black Aces one. I'm leaning towards the Black Bunny but I already have 3 CW F14s. Do I relly need another. Eerrrmmm, Cardinal, bite your tongue now please, thank you.

Re: Which CW will become most rare?

I have (2) VX-4 Black Bunny cats. I'm definitely keeping one of them. I'm considering either selling the second one on ebay or seeing if I could trade it for an AJ200 Jolly Rogers. Which do y'all think would be better?

Re: Which CW will become most rare?

Guys there are U.S only limited editions ( of only 1,000 models) of the Jolly Rogers F-14 coming to the USA around July/August. Why don't you guys go for one of those instead? Your local diecast dealer should have them on pre-order.

Oh yeah, and to stay on topic and not turn this thread into a "good deals" thread
For most rare My votes go for the Black Aces or the VX-4. There were many JR Tomcats done the VX's were Japan only and the Black Aces as a whole flew off the dealer shelves and residuals are fading away with a few last gasps here and there.
