Good deal???

Well, there I was in a Dutch toyshop. I heard something whispering at me and then I saw it and couldn't resist the offer.

A 1/24 Heller box named: Top 5 World Rally.
Inside the box I found the following items:

- Peugeot 206 WRC 2002 Safari
- Citroën Xsara WRC 2001
- Subaru Impreza WRC '01
- Ford Focus WRC '02
- Mitsubishi Lancer WRC '01
- 1 paintbrush
- 2 glue tubes
- 17 small bottles of paint

I had to pay €20/$25 fot the complete box. I know Heller doesn't make the best kits, but at €4/$5 each kit, who cares!

Re: Good deal???

These are 1/43 right?

Oh, and ditch the brush! And the glue! And the paint!!

Not meaning to diss your deal but the brush/paint/glue ain worth shit! Still, it'll keep you busy for a while. Let us all see them when they're done

Re: Good deal???

if it's 1/24, it's a damn good deal

If it's 1/43. you get one "free" for the price of 4 (they are about 7$ each)

Only wrote it down because of sarcasm.

If it's really 1/24, it's a very good deal
As you were in a Dutch toyshop, it saved you money for the Dutch Coffeeshop

I have absolutely no idea, maybe on ebay?
I bought it in a Toys 'R us store.
