                        I got a Academy Avenger kit for $2 in a school fair. Is it a good kit? I am tempting to resell it so havent open the wrap plastic yet.
                        The reaon is i found the hasegawa kit for 5$ (euros in fact but the price is almost identical....) in a clear out.
                        Also the Hasegawa Tony Ki-45 for 15.
                        Old Hasegawas for 3,5 (mid 80;s )
                        D-Day aniversary mustang and thunderbolts for 7,
                        which one would you recommend?
                        tell me buy all ...BUYYY AAAALLLLL!!!!! lead me to temptation LOL ( ive already bought the skyraider for 7)

                        Best deal I ever landed was a Monogram 1/72 B-36 at a yard sale last year, sealed box for $6.00

                        Best deal I ever got was Revell's 1/144 scale space shuttle from a toy shop for $1.00 Canadian! They had a double order of them and needed to clear them out ASAP.

                        From what I'm told that kit in a sealed condition should fetch no less than about $30.00 American on the collector's market.

                        The academy kit is pretty good. Sharp recessed panel lines. The hasegawa kit is better but not by much.
