I think vivek has 1:400 scale models which costs an average of USD 15-20. I've been collecting 1:500 scale models. Mine are costing me about USD 12-17. Mine are mostly wide bodies. Smaller ones might tend to go for less.

The MH Heliconia model was picked up from the MH inflight shopping and cost me around 43$ i.e. around INR 2000. It is made by Gemini Jets and is a limited edition model The rest of the models pictured above were bought locally. These are made by Dragon Wings and cost around INR 1200-1500.
