Robert A Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Hi All, I've got a few ID models vac forms but the rarest kit I think I have is ID 1/12th scale Messerschmitt 262B, one of only 50 made. And it's for sale if I have any takers. Bob P.S. I'll post a photo when I can get my head around how to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHIL B Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Mine has to be a pair of Revival 1/20 GP cars. A 1939 Mercedes W165 and a 1952 Ferrari 500. Or maybe a Union Ferrari 330 P4 Le Mans car. The most esoteric? Probably A Model's Rutan Voyager. I've long admired Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager. Anyone fancy spending 9 days in a cabin 20 inches high?

Richard E Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 The only things I'd consider calling rare (forgive the pun) is a Rareplanes Beech Super King Air and the 111 Squadron "Black Mike" boxing of Fujimi's Phantom FG1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 (edited) Like the other guys, most of my good stuff is in the loft and therefore not easily available for photographing. This year I bought and built a MANIA 1:48 Ki27 - guess that's pretty rare. In the stash there's: 1:48 Fujimi 109G-K (the one with the vast decal sheet) 1:48 Monogram Voodoo (original issue with the Tx ANG markings) 1:72 Revell Thunderchief - the scaled-down 1:48 Monogram kit 1:72 Monogram UH-16 Albatross 1:72 Matchbox Hunter (original issue) 1:72 Hasegawa RF-4C, F-4E, F-4J & F-4B/N all in their original boxings, I know they have been re-released from time-to-time but the originals are really hard to get a hold of nowadays..... When was the last time anybody saw a 1:72 'G' ??? and my favourite 'rarity' 1:24 Monogram '69 Judge - Original issue Ian Hey.... maybe we should start a thread for 'The Rarity I really want for my Stash'.......
