[:D]HI fellows, i have a question for all the pro´s in this forum and those guys who are been around this hobby for a long long time, i saw the B-26 Marauder, but i want to get an A-20 havoc in a 48th scale [^] do you think this is possible, i mean have you ever ever seen an A-20 in such scale??..[?]
I have a 1/48th A20J havoc. AMT made it.
Yepper sir, AMT made the A-20 in three variants; A-20B/C, A-20G & A-20J. Four variants if you wanna count the P-70 nightfighter.
They’re all out of production, and kinda hard to find sometimes. Just did a search on evilBay and found nada. Maybe try Hyperscale, make a post on the “Plane Trading” page.
Fade to Black…
Yeah, the AMT kits are pretty decent. True Details made some resin add-ons as well. Both turn up from time to time on eBay. Keep your eyes peeled.
[:(] EvilBAY is bad!, i have been looking for an A-20 and nada either, and also i was bidding on a B-24D and a P-40 combo in 48th scale and in 2 seconds i was out of the bid, time ran out and i couldnt do nothing!!! [:(] too sad!!, any way thank you for your time, i´ll keep looking…
Muchas gracias
Yeah, ya gotta be careful and not put to much into ebay. There are people out there that it takes 2 minutes to place a bid and wait
till the last possible moment to out bid ya. I’ve had this happen to me several times and alls I could do is shout four lettered words at my monitor. Otherwise my experience has been good and never ripped off.
Just found this on ebay (7/27)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3139944818&category=2587
It’s amt’s A20J
Wow!!! THAT IS GREAT!, thank you a lot!, i have been looking for it since a week a go, hopefuly i´ll be able to make it this time… but do you have any suggestion? would it be better if i wait until the last minute to bid? what would be the maximum bid that you would place if you were me?? [:)]
Hope you can help me some on this one…
Actually, I can’t in good faith. It would really depend on how much your wallet can bear and how much your willing to spend. When I do it, I first figure on how much the kit is worth and put that in as max bid - I have gotten suckered into bidding wars and paid way too much for 3 different kits (2 b58’s and a v22), then I will increase the amount in 10 dollar increments until I get fed up or feel it isn’t worth it.
Then again, I’ve gotten rare kits dirt cheap (rube goldberg anyone?)
YEHA!!! [:D]
