Mike your starting to scare me with your talent!! HOLY!

<--- Faints, hits floor,

Its 13USD to ship a 1/100 Arii Macross kit. within the United states. Thats why I am kind of aggravated. No way in hell does it cost 13 to ship that. Not UPS, Fedex, or Reg. Mail

thats taking advantage.

yeah he did not state the shipping charges

Ranger565

Is it leagle for someone to sell an Item on ebay then Jack up the Shipping just to raise the Bid? I won an auction for $10 USD. And the person is asking for $13 USD in Shipping?? the Item is in the US and weight is less then a pound! is that Leagle? that to me is BS. Do I need to email EBay on that? or get the Finger on this? The total weight and inssurance would only come to $3.50 USD.

Ranger565

Thank you and any comments I would like to hear.

Oh heck yeah, That pictures is 1000000% better then the one I was able to find.

Scratch the Tan off the list. The other pic made it look tan! OK now your right with that grey. It Could be an overall Light Grey; like you propose. Heck in fact almost could be a White Bow.

Thank you for that Screene shot. Best one I have seen yet.

Ranger565

Payment sent.

Well ok after doing about 5 hours of research. This is prob the ONLY pic we going to have of the Oberth in Color

Ok here is more detail of the colors that I can make out

1. Radome Tan (nose) FS Color 33613 http://www.ipmsstockholm.org/colorserver/s...or.asp?fs=33613

2. Neutral Gray (Bottem or belly) FS Color 36270

http://www.ipmsstockholm.org/colorserver/s...or.asp?fs=36270

3. Dunkelblau RLM 24 Blue (Upperbody) No FS number, Its Testers

4. Flat black

5. Flat white

6. Basic colors for lights, ports etc.

Well I hope this helps. Not the best pic in the world, I can also even suggest the bottom is Flat white. but To me I would feel more comfortable with the Neutral Gray. Not a hard piece to paint.

For the Dunkelblau RLM 24 Blue You can see the Color here On my Fast pack Booster's and Armor on my VF-1A Survivor here. To me it represents the Right Blue for the Top surface of the Oberth. Its Close to the QF-3000 Ghost blue (however the Ghost is a little darker Blue.

Hope this will help you all on Painting.

And as always, If anyone has another Color pic that would be great. But this sucker been hard to find.

Ranger565

Hey Grayson, here you go.

Well I have made Modifications to the 1/72, but I am testing my stuff on the 1/100 first

Well I am actually still working On my 1/100 spartin Modification, Been about 3 months since I have been able to work on it. Work has me over my head right now. But I have created and Casted my Shoulder Rockets for the Kit and have been cutting away to make it more real. Soon as I get a chance will post more pics, LOTS of sanding left to do and Cutting.

Hey guys,

Ok as of now There is 3 kits that I know of that are being made and we have lists for. However Its getting harder to keep chasing down the Forums to see where every project is currently. Is there any way for us to Consolidate whats being made at the present moment?

as of Now I have my name down for

1. Launch Arm from Jesse

2. Oberth from honneamise

3. 1/72 Monster from Mike

Is there anyway we can make 1 single list for what everyone has there name down for? I am about to put my name down for the Macross bases once they start making a list.

I know that many of you work on these lists, but I guess I am getting old and cant keep up.

Ranger565

Man that awsome.

To Me these are the Kits in 1/72 we should be trying to make. This is TV stuff we dont have and would be Nice to have. Just a shame I dont think many other people share my thoughts on this.

I have Stated on these Boards. YOU snipe me your going to pay 3X the worth of the Kit. so good luck if you want to pay 300 for a kit thats worth 50.00

Does not make me an ass, this has kept many snipers off my back. But I only bid because I have the money. and willing to pay. I am all for someone wanting a model kit. I loose all the time. but to lose to a program. LOL Not going to happen with out a fight.

Sorry the way I feel

To Ewilen. Hey bud, just do your best to win the item. There will be more on EBay soon. I ahve been wating around for a few sellers on Ebay to post on 1/72 destroids. I have been buying them on Ebay. I have my sellers that Prob no one knows about on here. its amazing what you can find on ebay. Even if its not listed correctly. just keep looking if this does not win what you want.
