Interesting find Codmander. I've never seen one offered by Franklin Mint before. If you can get a picture of it, that would be great.

yea I will i have a little pc camera next time i am over that way for sure look in on it -((last time was around christmas))-see if it still there was a type 9 if i am not mistaken with a -cut out- crew climbing down ladders and could see the interior nice piece --rare

Hmmm.....very interesting :hmm:
picture and price please :up:

Franklin Mint, lets see. I have over 30 of the cars. 15 of the aircraft by Armour(owned by Franlin Mint). I have seen an American sub but it is pricey. Something like $350.00. I think the aircraft carrier is $450.00. You can get with monthy payments.

Here is the main page.

Danbury mint is nice also.

Who would pay such a price for die-cast model ships and subs.much cheaper to build your own.

Thats what I thought at first, its definitly pricey. But then I noticed that its signed by the captain, so I'm sure that is most of the price right there.

No time, kids, work......I sure do miss making a model or two. So I go get one every now and then.

hi again i had to go there today and see but to my surprise I saw no uboat ask the sales man where it went and he didnt seem to know had a model there of a VIIC/41 ((PIC)) but that was it bunch of aircraft carriers,battleships and planes but that u boat was gone:cry:

I saw the Uboat by Revell last year for 69.00 in a hobby shop but didn't get that day. Went back 2 days later and it was gone. :cry:

You can get that model online. I want it also. It is either feed the kids or get the model ..hmmmmm! No I could not do that. I'll feed the kids.

Seeing things again? Maybe she submerged. This model is available online.

Thanks for the effort codmander :up:

no prob -- there is a die cast metal u boat out there somewhere not that plastic one -- not sure but someone other than flanklin mint makes it ---------------------------------too be continued
