There is an Idea boxing of this kit and three have recently been listed on ebay in Australia.
Bidding has gone absolutely crazy on them.
With one sold for $140 plus $12.20 post and another currently at $143 plus $15 post with two days to go.
The third I purchased for $300 because it was two kits in one box.
I want it for my collection but also to take a picture of and upload to the database.
I also discovered a rebox of the Hobbycraft version that's not in the database
So I've just purchased one of them on ebay from the States for a heap of money too

Second kit listed sold today for $259 plus $15 post.
So I did alright buying two for $300 post included.
I'll be able to sell one reducing what I paid

So my ebay listing of the one kit minus box ended today at $178.50 post included.
In a truth is stranger than fiction scenario the guy I purchased the two kits off of purchased the kit I listed. Apparently he had seller's remorse.
So I'm relatively happy
