Title: Re: 2 Red Rider-Ericssons Arrived from Jin
Post by: parallelmotion on February 18, 2024, 10:12:10 pm: Yes, the same as the unpainted version. He was trying some much less than authentic colors on these when I told him they should be red and black. Now paint the base and legs black and you'll have it right.

I think this is the same as the unpainted version that when they 1st came out you could score them on ebay for well under $200.

Must have been looking the other way about then ...... but if I coulda, I woulda!!!

Post by: Stoker on February 16, 2024, 08:37:25 am: Certainly look nice, but do we get to see one running I wonder? ;c)

Pricing is a little steeper than usual for Jin, or so it seems!?!?
