Achtung heinkel! (1 Viewer)

The $2,000 price was posted on Bill Sager's website.

Be that as it may, when K & C has posted photos before of other planes (such as the Lancaster(s))and/or mentioned the price there was never any controversy about the price. The price is the price. Some can afford and some can't. Maybe you don't like the price but that's just the way it is. Why all this testiness? ^&confuse

Hmmmm... I'll stick to my 1:48 scale planes:)..the K&C versions are very beautiful, and if I had the extra coin I would be all in, but alas I don't so solves that problem, I do look forward to seeing some pics whoever adds them to ther collection...Louis? Lawrence?? any takers on here yet?...Sammy
 
I want a Mercedes Benz!!!!!!Why is it expensive!!!!!!!!^&grin^&grin^&grin
 
They are absolutley beautiful!!! Just checked and there is no indication of their existence or price in K&C's site warbird section. Maybe they will show up over the next days. Anyway, the price tag will be heavy... Not as big as a US$ 2750,00 Lancaster, but bigger than a US$ 750,00 Whirlwind, to name 2 existing birds in that section. I'd love to takeoff in the Battle of Britain...{sm4}
 
Gordon mate,
Superb aircraft cobber. Both versions look fantastic. A great credit to the skills of the K&C production team. At USD$1,995 a fair price for such a great piece. My "G" for George Lancaster takes pride of place in my K&C collection. Magnificient British aircraft crewed by valiant Aussies.:smile2:
I wish to point out to my FL friends^&grin who have jumped onto this thread about price that these planes are the wooden version (not poly range) and are all hand crafted.
As you blokes keep telling us about FL that they are better scuplted, painted and better poses hence the high price tag, then I say to you these planes are the "St. Petersburg" collection of the K&C range and are priced accordingly. Each being hand made in a limited production run.
I like the Desert version best but cannot make up my mind. Might have to buy both{sm4}
Cheers Howard

Well said mate. These are better than St. Petersburg. These are museum quality. Generally, you can't appreciate the quality until you have one in your hand.
 
I'll be curious to see the price of the WWI planes. Jenkins is selling them for $200 and about $30 for the pilot.
 
Gentlemen,

The price is $1995.00 for one plane in either paint scheme. This is listed on Sager's website, http://www.toysoldiersusa.com/cgi-l...NNOISSEUR EDITIONS&offset=90&reset=1305852718.

Also note that the JU 52, also on the way, is priced at $2500.00 for one plane in either Richthofen, Europe, or Winter paint.

These are wooden 1:30 scale planes with detailed interiors. Yes they are expensive, but well worth it if you can afford it. Anyone know the production numbers? I'm guessing the 10-20 range for each paint scheme.
 
There's only one thing wrong with this in some peoples mind.....the brand name:mad:
 
These models place collecting in a totally separate league of their own. Hats off to those collectors buying these. If a polystone version of the JU-52 came out for around the $400.00 to $500.00 range I would also take the plunge {sm3}

Superb looking aircraft, they really do look very well
