My cousin (actually nephew - it's a long story, trust me) is selling his Star Wars kits. He needs to dispose of them ASAP because he's leaving for Australia this Friday. I must say, he's very good and I reckon maybe - big MAYBE - some people at IPMS-Phils (BAC) or even the old SCMP might know him.

Anyway, will post the pictures of his kits later tonight. I reckon it includes the Millenium Falcon.

My cousin's/nephew's name is Noel Navarro.

Wow! Sobrang ganda ng works nya! Add to that nanalo pa sya sa IPMS!

I must agree with blitz, auction in E-bay. But do not auction it while the location is Phil. Subukan nyang dalhin doon sa Australia then auction there for helluva bucks!

Thanks for the idea on EBay, but problem is he won't be able to bring the models to Aussieland, hence he's selling it now.

UPDATE: According to my sis, his asking price for the models is now ANY PRICE (as long as it isn't P1.00 and the like - baka mga P500 ok na yan). So... his emai address is up there, and if you're interested, do please contact him.

BTW, my other request is that assuming his Millenium Falcon hasn't been sold yet, may I request to the potential buyer to take real good care of that one, considering it got 2d in IPMS. I'd buy it meself but I'm short on cash (and living space - unless I can find a way to expand my hidden mountain lair...).

I was also thinking that maybe IPMS itself buy the Millenium Falcon and have it placed in their meeting room (fiawrc? Buck?).

BTW, on behalf of my nephew, thanks for the kind words on his builds. Yes, they are very excellent builds. In case you're interested further on his other works (not models though, apparently, his old site is gone already - and it showed lots of his models), check this link: http://noelzzz.deviantart.com/gallery/
