Those little jet engines had better be able to cook hot dogs for that price!  :o

I hope he's joking!

I bet you could model one in 1:1 scale for well under $20mil. Wife must be forcing him to sell his baby, so maybe he's just going through the motions.

Dear m1engineer,

ok, so I gotta know, what makes this particular RDC worth $20,000,000? Consitering I can order one directly from Kato for $300.

Dear delamaize,

Nothing, just the lister. I found this method to work quite well for other categories.

Ha, and you still have to pay $5.85 for shipping...

Bryan, do you mean the Jet RDC, or RDC's in general?  Are we finally gonna see B&M, TRE, et al schemes?  That would be cool.  Expensive, but cool.

Doug,

The NYC Jet RDC and the B&M (Minuteman and-McGinnis) in the Kobo line.  Too bad they won't offer the B&Ms without all the expensive electronics.

I thought the shipping was reasonable. Wonder if it includes insurance?  ;D ;D ;D

Looks like it has been re listed at a more respectable price of $295.
There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away
