Re: Kirk's Collection

Aha! So how did you obtain Ugly Betty (just a pun on the show)...err I mean Beautiful Betty?

Btw, great collections!

A friend sold it to me for $100. I couldn't pass that up.
 

Keep'em flying.

Lucky dude! I wouldn't pass it up either, since the Betty Bomber is alot harder to find these days.

Re: Kirk's Collection

The Betty is really superb. That's the first time I've seen a picture of that Marushin model, and wow! I need one bad! But at the regular prices, ouch...

You are lucky to have gotten that one so cheap. You wouldn't be interested in re-selling it for a small profit, would you?

Not at the moment but will consider it in the future for the same price I bought it for.

Really? Well keep me in mind then, I would be extremely interested in such a deal. The Betty would go very well with the rest of my Marushins.

Re: Kirk's Collection

Sure thing FVD, I know you have a good Marushin collection already and when I decide to sell it I'll PM you.

Excellent! I've been wanting that baby for a while...

Anyway, no hurry, I'll be ready when you are (pretty unlikely I'll find a better deal on that model anywhere, methinks).

It weighs as heavy as the FM B-17.

Re: Kirk's Collection

I picked up another model this weekend at an antique shop around town.

Franklin Mint P-38 Jandina
Limited Edition



It came along with a Biography of Lt. General Jay Robbins and the patch above.
