Default Stolen: Goblin Gasser and Jet Ranger stolen in Washington

Posting this for a friend whose garage got broken into last night in Washington. The thief got away with his Goblin Gasser and 407 Jet Ranger RC Aerodyne 470 Super Scale along with some other misc stuff.
Pictures attached. If you come across any of it for sale or otherwise please let me or USA_1_INK know.

Here is an update from Karl on FB yesterday:

Just an update: The Moses Lake Police conducted a search warrant last night on a vehicle and residents. They have one person in custody for the burglary and stealing mail.
I did get my Goblin Gasser back , but its in bad shape. Still no word on the other $4k worth of property and rc stuff.

He said it looked like they decided to strip it and just ripped the frame apart.

Good idea on the Vbar pctomlin. I know the Goblin had one which is a moot point now but not sure about the scale. I'll suggest it to him.

Sounds to me like they really had no idea what they had or else they'd have known how to properly break it down and disassemble it.
