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.

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.
