    Someone tried a few years back... it was a toy bootlegger looking to go legit that apparently pitched the idea before ever getting a license, and then kind of quietly folded after doing some draft work.  I forget the name of the outfit.

    They struggled quite a bit to get something that actually looked good.

    MAAS Toys. I think someone did a runner with their funds... :unsure:

     

    I asked Kitz Concept CS about their Dana 1/12 Figure:

    We did not give up to produce 1/12 Dana but we modified the clothes materials to Fabric instead of original (plastic) thus it takes time and delay to release in Jun 2023.

    About the MEP Toys' Invid toys, they have been cancelled.

    The guy from MEP is going to refund all the orders and later this year have an inventory sale of all the items produced.

    What happened? Are they even more sub-standard than the Hellcat? :unsure:

    As with every question of this sort, the answer lies with you individually, and the customer base collectively. Know that this has been one of the most grueling projects I've had to work on in the last 2 decades, and if there's a re-issue/variation, there will also be a price correction to reflect the stupid amount of work it entails. With that said, If you pay attention to the decal sheet pic in my last update, you'll see that the markings for Yellow are there.

    Thanks. That basically means I will be waiting for the female edition. :unsure:

    Dammit @Perxion, you and @Tober are goading me into buying a 3D printer of my own, aren't you? :unsure:

    Very impressive design work, guys. :good:

    Yep! They are messy but can produce some great results. :)

    Nice! :wub: Would that mean the next one is a 1/60 Vajra? :rolleyes:

    Thanks! I'd need some really good reference for that tho... :unsure:

  5. I (FINALLY!) received a new 3D printer to play with, so I pulled this Hellcat project out of digital mothballs. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, even though there is some resin whitening. The main body is aprox 10cm long, so roughly 1/12 scale. There are no joints for it yet tho.

    So...do the original 500 who ordered this get copies with the "x/1000" label they ordered, or will they now get the same "x/1888" label that everyone ordering now gets?

    I ask, because wouldn't changing those terms potentially be a reasonable basis for someone to cancel their preorder and expect a deposit refund? I can imagine some being upset at the extension of the run to where what they ordered, even if it's the label on the box, has materially changed after payment was made.

    Just curious...

    I was in the 500, and I really don't care about a numbered card.

    A few friends missed out on the original preorder and it made me feel kinda guilty about it. So it's fine by me that the run was extended.

    Otherwise, it reminds me of a scene in South Park where Cartman is playing with a toy in front of Kyle, who also wants the toy. Cartman isn't so much enjoying playing with the toy as enjoying that he has it to play with and Kyle doesn't.
