$250 !!!!
Ah well, even if I had the cash he only delivers inside the US so I'm buggered both ways. Nice model though.
As a side note I always pictured Airwolf in my head as the dark cobalt blue, not black. I never did find out which one was officially correct.
Do you know? Did you see it as black or blue?

It's mainly black with a touch of bluish-green thrown in. I painted my model accordingly. I researched it like mad back then.

Just got & customized this- Futura Shuttlecraft from Ebay ($6 *with* shipping; there's more to be had there), had to shave off a piece on the top front, and get rid of the one window that was in the wrong place, and paint in the correct ones & paint the shaved area. Other than that, it's really good.

The second picture allow to appreciate the scale you're working in. Impressive!

Other than what I had to change (small stuff, really) it's the most accurate model of the shuttlecraft I could find (and I LOOKED!). I was tempted to do an interior (still am). Maybe next week! Seriously, I never worked this small before. It's like, the size of two quarters.

Ohhhhhhh, that's byooooteeful!
They do all the hard work for you over there in Japan, huh?
I never built an Airwolf kit, but I'd have hated to mask off the black/white areas for painting, especially the rounded bit under the nose.
