Question about kit of USS TUCUMCARI
Posted by PTConsultingNHR on Sunday, August 16, 2015 7:49 PM

Hi Guys,

 

Anyone know where I can get an example of the old AURORA or REVELL kit of the Hydrafoil TUCUMCARI?  Not the newer 1:350 scale kits.  But, either the AURORA or REVELL version?

 

Thanks,

 

Tim

Hi TIM ;

    Listen , I've seen two of the old Aurora kits . Very poor Glue Bombs . If I see a better one , You want me to pick it up for you ? These are usually flea market finds . I would be glad to do this for you .      T.B.

I'll second Tankerbuilder, that you'll need to look on the second-hand market.  Flea markets are one choice, also, the dealer areas at the various shows, if you visit them, or eBay.  I just ran a quick search on "tucumcari", though, and it didn't return any current auctions for the kit.

The bigger the government, the smaller the citizen.

Hey TB!

Yeah, sure!  Please do.  Though a guy over at SN told me that he had one a few days ago, shot him an email (and posted a note that I sent him an email), haven't gotten an answer to either.

So, yeah, please do that.  Thank you.
