are you kidding me ?? that's insane. in my honest opinion, the rattler is pretty ugly, and that's alot of dough to fork over for it.
i didn't ever think one would sell for that much.

I was watching that one too. Unreal isn't it? I sold mine in or around 2000 when I first got my PC, I think it went for around the $25.00-30.00 range it was opened & S/I.
If I still had it I would give it to you Dave.

YIKES !! I'm glad I still have the one I built in '75 . Its not perfect, but I could never pay that much for a kit . I thought it was ugly when I bought it, but there was no other decent things to build at our local store - I guess I'm lucky it survived all these years

Won't these idiots that pay the big bucks to collect these things fall over when someday they pull the molds out and re release them!!!

It being a 1/8 scale and I only seen one up close in my lifetime. the 1/24-25 scales are a more common scale. For those the $$$ are for bragging rights and not builders. |

I'd like to have a King Chopper(to build) because I remember it as one of my favorites as a kid. My little brother disassembled it little by little. Thinking back on it, I believe I still owe him an a$$-whoopin' for it. Hmmmmm............

I don't believe it. I got a Trantula for 28 bucks! Of course, it's not a '68('69?), but I could give 2 scoots. I have a Trantula(well, it ain't shipped yet but........) once again. Note to self: Do not let my brother play with my models.

When I sold off all of my AMT wacky kits a few years back, they all went big bucks like this. I sold at least a dozen of them for no less than 275.00 and most went well over 300 bucks. They put a nice dent in the parts list for my Coupe, and I have no regrets! Same with some of the big buck Hot Wheels I sold. I still have plenty!
