    Help Needed

    Hello,

    This being my first post as the title suggests I am looking for some help.

    Way back in my teens I was an avid modeller and now my own teenage son has shown an interest. As a result of this I thought it would be a good idea to get all of my unbuilt kits stored at my parents house to see if there was anything of interest.

    Five bin bags later I have gone through the models and have found a few that I have been un-able to trace via the internet.

    Before I make a ham fisted attempt at building them I would like to try and establish if these kits are in anyway collectable.

    If anyone has any advice/info on the following I would much appreciate it:

    ESCI 1/9 BMW R/75 WW2 motorcycle.

    Bandai 1/15 Sturmgeschutz IV.

    Nitto Kagaku 1/12 Lancia Stratos Montecarlo version.

    There are also smaller scale kits including 3 ESCI 1/24 rally cars and 2 Monogram 1/32 WW2 German Armoured vehicles.

    Thanks in advance,

    Pete

    Just had a single search for each on google, and have noted a single result each, there's plenty more to trudge through ......

    The BMW kit went for $120 on ebay recently

    The 1/15 bandai kit has been discussed on RC forums as a reasonable model to convert, one price mentioned was $180.

    The Lancia is a 1980 kit (out of production) and one was sold in june this year for 81.50 (Euro)

    Welcome to the forum Pete, hang around mate there's plenty of advice, help, hints and tips available here for when you and your son "get into it"
