Accurate Miniatures P-51B in 1/48 scale?

[dneid]

Hey, Guys,
Anyone have any experience with this kit? Is it a reasonably good kit for under $15? Care to comment on pros and cons of this kit?

Great kit, especially for under 15 bucks, get it!
One of the few Accurate Miniature kits that doesn't have a bizarre bit of difficulty in the engineering.

Hey, Ivan the Terrible ( )
Thanks for the response. I just may pull the trigger if the bidding stays that low.

Will probably go up. They are rare and good.

They sure are! If you can get it for under $30 it'll be a bargain! If not, then the ICM and Tamiya kits are ok (as you know) and even the old Monogram kit. Just wish some one would bring out a realistically-priced, accurate version in 1/32nd scale.

 

[dneid]

Yay, I won the bidding at 14.50 plus 8.50 shipping.

Great! I think you will be pleased.

 

[Airframes]

That's a great score at a great price!

 

[Crimea_River]

Damn, you did great on that!

 

[dneid]

Yeah, I was surprised that I got it for that price. I set a max bid of $25 and only one other guy bid when we were at $11.89. I guess he gave up when my bid came right back at him after he bid something like $13.27. Guess this is karma. The 1/48 Eduard Lysander cost me $51 with shipping.

Did well on that P-51 purchase, Dale!

I remember when Eduard's Tempest was out of production a while back. Bidding went way past my $50 limit and it was up in the $80s before I stopped checking.
