I can personally recommend this plane as I bought it about a year ago on ebay for roughly the same price.

You WILL NOT find a more impressive incredibly detailed airplane anywhere. As a collector, I highly recommend this buy. I've still got the plane in the box, un assembled, waiting to display it once my basement rennovations are complete.

GMP Rocks!
