Pup7309 Posted July 12, 2019 Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) Who cares? If you like it buy it. If not there’s $600 you can spend on something else Edited July 12, 2019 by Pup7309

If not there’s $600 you can spend on something else $600 buys you an entire squadron of Revell Spitfires. For $600, I'm expecting my WNW Lanc to not only look 100% real, I'm expecting it to bring me coffee in the morning, mow the lawn twice a week and walk the dogs.

No one said it would be that much. This is supposed to be a "relaxing hobby". For that kind of money I can have a very relaxing holiday with no paint fumes, no sander dust and no carpet monsters to chase around the floor. Radu misha71 and Pup7309 1 1

After it’s release and much scrutiny we’ll find out if it is all this and more. Apologies for any flippancy. Some of the detailed arguments are interesting up to a point. The standard of witty replies here are great though...

Out2gtcha Posted July 12, 2019 Posted July 12, 2019 I would think Sir Peter and Co would try to stick close to the price they are hinting g at on the site: "Avro Lancaster B.Mk.1/III (Early) in development for release in late 2019. Price to be confirmed but we really hope we can keep it to somewhere between US$349 & US$399." timvkampen 1

This would be fine, and hopefully it will not want to sneak out at night and go bomb Germany! Alain Out2gtcha 1

I'm expecting WNW's hopes to be just as successful as mine.

Y'see, now we have to pick a punishment for you if WNW do manage to get it out for under $399... Out2gtcha and alanash1963 1 1

The retail price here in Australia has already been pegged at AU$700, though it would be nice if that changed to something a bit lower between now and the release date. At the current exchange rate, that's about US$490. Kev

World poverty will have been eliminated once the WNW Lancaster is available to buy, the Be2c is in development, and Tamiya are shaking in their boots! alanash1963 1
