Re: Corrado on ebay..ok go!

Ooh, the Corrado. I heard Revell only made 50 of them, and they were accidentially put into old Army surplus boxes and sent to a store in rural Utah, who sells them when they find a come across one in the back room.....

Re: Corrado on ebay..ok go!

I'ts rare. And revell germany only makes rare kits to piss us off. Hehe...A shitty kit can go for much $$ if it is well sought after. Same with older kits of lower quality. You just HAVE to HAVE IT because there are none anymore.

Give a look here:

It's impossible to find a Corrado at a good price.I tried many times to take one but I don't want spend so much money for a model that I want build and not collect.

I think that with the price of a Revell Kit I could buy an old real Corrado to repair

Re: Corrado on ebay..ok go!

In the years I've seen them on Ebay I've seen them go anywhere from $50 to *gulp* $353.00

Glad I got mine through a trade

Would love it if Revell could figure out how to get plastic running throught the oddly-designed tooling inserts that have managed to keep it out of production. They know it would be a good reissue if they could run it.

Surprised the aftermarket hasn't taken a shot w/a simplified resin kit.
