It's exactly the same with all models really..armoured and aircraft are being weird right now tho..ya just check out trademe for instance..man I've seen some tanks which normally have stupid prices but are going surprisingly cheap 
Aircraft are exactly the same yet also some prices are definitely not from this reality

My problem is they keep repopping model cars for which the old releases are almost impossible to find locally and which mesh with my interests.

There's a few cars I had I'd love to get again and the repops are good but they ain't repoping the ones I want the twats but even if they did ..those bloody prices would probably change my mind 😕

The other day I was looking for a kit of the M10 Booker light tank that's not a tank. The entire program has been cancelled and prices of the kit jumped into the ludicrous range. One on ebut right now is listed for $196.17!!!!!
Other model store sites have it for close to msrp.

WWII ships in 1/1200 are a screaming nightmare too, especially since for destroyers and smaller you have to resort to 3d-printing.

Yes - you're missing the fact that it's 1/144th scale, not 1/700th...
