What is this thing?

$57.28 shipping?!?

For me the links says to ask seller for shipping costs. I was just posting that link to show Rod what it is. If you want it I bet the seller would lower the shipping.

Well I don't want one.    I just wondered what the heck it was.  I'm not big on Star Wars so I didn't recognize it from anywhere.
If the seller wants that much to post it domestically, imagine what he'd want to send it Down Under???  

i think that's what it was to ship to oz, $12 to Illinois, lol, i actually have one of these, bought it when jr. was a really little kid and hung it by crib, i think i paid about the same back then....

No, he's changed the ad since I posted.  Previously only shipped to USA, now he states worldwide shipping with OZ at $21.61.  The figure Mark (batjac) mentioned was the domestic shipping rate when I first looked.  I punched in a random US zip code & it now comes up at $3.62 First Class.  Pretty cheap, even too cheap to believe.

It might be a crap plane, but it's becoming more attractive as a collector's piece.
