If you don't mind waiting a month they are $141 shipped on Ebay.

 

 

Hey Greg,

Did you happen to see which user on E-Bay that was, and if they happened to have any of the "J" model B-24s for that price?

 

TIA

I wanted to go away from E-Bay this time... that's where I ordered my original one, and I received a stuffed animal key chain instead with a typed note that asked me to "please accept this gift instead and please be patient. It is taking time to customize your order."

Fortunately I already got my refund from the seller. They can enjoy the negative feedback. Already got a new one on order!

I just dared to cut off the forward fuselage-section from the kit part, using a printed template to guide the scriber. I hope I don't regret this act of slaugther :D

The printed fuselage section will need some sanding to get a nice transition to the kit part, but basically it works.

Now, I'll try to make a new nose, based on better plans.

 TIA,

If you are wary of Ebay.  Freetime hobbies has one on sale today for $179.99 with free shipping.

Pardon my ignorance,but nobody has mentioned the horrible wing problem I have seen pics of,

 

Have the wings been corrected on newer releases?   The shape of the front fuselage and clear part looks correctable without too much sweat.

 

Just the humble opinion of a guy who doesn't have the space or funds for what looks like an impressive kit.    cheers  Ernie
