But the question is what is your most desired shelf queen, no suggestion of ever running it.
As a display model I know I would rather look at an Avante than a Super Dogfighter and the Avante is much more impressive to non r/cers because of it's overcomplication.

Although my personal choice of a shelf queen would be a Hirobo Jealousy, there were only 300 of them built and spares are non existent so there's no chance I would risk breaking it by running it.

Id love to have the prototype Mid optima from the 1987? Worlds.

I remember purchasing a brand new Optima Pro kit from Marionville models when they came out.

I would be intrigued as to how much there worth these days.
