Re: The Elusive Marushin G4M "Betty"

KK or Lanslide, I'm curious as to how much that Betty weighs? Can you provide a guess?

2.3 kg = 5.1 lbs

About 6 years ago #21 cost 28,000 Yen = $245.59 USD today.
#22 cost 30,000 Yen = $263.13 USD today.

Re: The Elusive Marushin G4M "Betty"

Thanks Lanslide. Those are some hefty models. Do they also come with a wheels-up option (assuming they also fit the Marushin stand)?

I would LOVE to have either one of those models in my collection.

I think so...let's ask KK though because I haven't displayed mine yet - sorry.

Black 6, they do not come with that option. It would be nice though.
