I got this late last week from Mint Models Door Buster Sale.  I've had Bburago's old Roadster for 35+ years and really wanted a better, less toy-like model of the Series I to go with my AutoArt Series III.  The AutoArt & Kyosho versions were way more than I was looking to spend, so was considering the recently released KK-Scale (sealed diecast), but something about the exterior looked off to me.  I'm glad I waited, as Mint Models sale brought the price down to my comfort zone.

Yeah, not bad at all. You were wise to wait; this Jag looks really nice.

I will have to keep an eye out for the next Door Buster Sale. May I ask what you paid?
