I'd have to say that version rarely comes up and the Honest Johns are always popular it seems, but I'll be surprised if he gets THAT figure for it. As you have commented before, this lister always has sky-high prices on their kits. Not sure if they ever sell anything or not.

For someone who really wanted it one might could see a couple hundred, but even that might be a tough sell.

That seller always has "Crack-Head" pricing on everything and little sells at his ridiculous asking prices.
I generally offer him ridiculously low offers. Like less than 25% of his asking price for a Pershing 1A.

Yeah, but that's a cool, limited run kit. Apples and asparagus.
