[Bob Potter]

There are a number of people who buy up old kit collections and go to informal hobby meets. I have seen the kit you want in several incarnations and never paid more than fifteen US dollars for it. Remember that this kit was created by Peerless-Max, then sold to Italeri who licensed it to Testors. You can find it in the original Peerless-Max box; if you do, you will also get a nifty history summary sheet with photos from the Bart Vanderveen collection. The latest Italeri release is still in some shops around here for twnety-seven dollars list. The Peerless and the Testors versions have the "best" instructions.

Happy hunting
