I keep thinking about bidding on this kit, but wonder if I'm wasting my time as the price is going to go too high. What do you experts think it will go for?

I believe it can go more than $700, but better ask Darryn, he will guess $50 closer than me... LOL

Well, its the 1st one i have ever seen. This is bound to finish at a high price. Depending on Bidders i would say it could be nearer the 1000 mark. There have been some rare kits recently and in these bidding times it should be high. (Of course i could be way out and it finishes at a a few hundred. Then i will eat my words

Tough one this one - as the car is a real tough one to find NIB. I seem to remember a month or two ago going for 700 or maybe more ? This one looks minty mint - and is being sold by Alex - who has an excellent reputation and sells no junk......I reckon 750 - 900........then again - it might not top 600 - as the "crazies" have started getting negative feedbacks........high prices are great - however the buyer needs to have money as well !!

Love this guy, has often chucked in 'extra' stuff, more than you've paid for - its a lovely surprise each time. Wonder what freebies might come with the WW NIB!!?!

(whoops, did I just talk it up another $300?)

Watcha mean 'status', Sean?

From what we've seen, Wheeler bodyparts came out about 2 yrs ago in Japan for some hobby show, pkg'd in a plastic bag with cardboard backing. Probably all snapped up by the scalpers by now & regularly dripped onto eBay.

Molded in white with smoked glass sprue for the lights & glasshouse, but does not include the roof's rear aluminium spoiler (that came in the original bodyset). No white front brushguard provided either.

For some reason I thought tamiya was still releasing them. Thanks for the update. Hows married life??
