Default MRC Iron Man

Looking for an MRC Iron Man kit. I have one that I built, and I foolishly sold a second unopened kit a few years back. Now I'm afraid to launch my Iron Man in case something goes south and I lose or destroy it. So, looking for some back up.

If you have one of these great kits to sell or trade please PM me.

Giving this thread a bump. Still hoping to get an MRC Iron Man, sealed or opened. Buy or trade works for me. If you have an Iron Man kit that you're willing to part with, please PM me. Thanks.

BTW, Earl, I see that you posted a response three days after my original post. Not sure I ever saw that in time, no recollection. Anyway, this is to acknowledge your post, and thank you.

If I see another one I'll try to post a link. They do come up from time to time, just not real often. That said, there are like 3-4 of the MRC Trailblazers on eBay right now. Some of them have been there for a while. Not cheap prices either.

Do you have the plans for the Ironman? Perhaps it could be cloned?.

Might be a tough clone. Several unique features, including the plastic nose cone, recruits and different motor mounts that can be swapped out.

Thanks, Earl. The Trailblazer is a nice kit, but IMHO overpriced at $180. I'm really not interested in that kit either. Just want an Iron Man.

Yes, agree on the prices of those Trailblazers. Just kind of observing that, while the one you are looking for is kind of hard to find, others of the MRC Concept II line come around pretty frequently, if not cheaply.

A price of over $25 for ANY MPC kit is a rip-off.
