1/55 Strike Recast


SILVERDRAGON

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Anyone want these? I am only gauging interest, at this time, of how many people want this type of armor. I don't have all the parts done as of yet, it's on the way of being finished. Pm me if your interested. I have 3 types of cannon in these pictures. One of these are the orginal cannon and the other 2 are recasts. You can see that the white one has the hole in the center and the other one doesn't. I am making it with the hole in the center not like the onces we always get with the hole covered.

Thank you all

That's funny, I thought there would tons of interest in something like this. I would be interetsed in 1 set if the price were good. Assuming we're talking about the entire armor set here.

Unless there were some taboo around this...?

I already have a set of jesse's resin strike, two originals, and a few extra cannons from monkey and others. I really need to start recasting parts myself to justify any more :rolleyes:

I'm not that bad... I think bobe has 5+ strikes :blink:

What!!! :o

I wish I was that lucky. I have zero and I am still wishing. There is nothing like having a 1/55 Strike.

Will there be volume discounts for multiple sets?

Is there that much difference between the Reissues and the Originals.

I can see a few deatial differences but apart from that...

I dont own any reissues just old skool originals. Im like Kanata or Bobe just on a much smaller scale, but Im looking at a few Valks who would love to be dressed in armor.

yep. the only part silver will have to recast extra/differently is the forearm armor. it's actually pretty nice that it's just that part as he could even offer up sets with both types for people who wanted to move the armor around.

Hi everyone,

I am about to be done with the strike armor for the 1/55 original and the reissue. I need to know how many people are really wanting a strike armor and which one do you want.

Well I would want strike armor for old school 1/55`s only as I dont have any new ones. Im not planning to get any new ones unless I see em at rock bottom prices in Japan while Im there in April.

What sort of price are you looking at ?? Thats the cruncher at the mo as I keep spending money on Macross stuff and Star Wars figures, its getting hard to find excusess all the time. If the price is good I would be looking at several sets.

Hi everyone,

As far for the pricing its going to be $65 w/shipping including tracking only in the USA. Both original and reissue armors are going to be the same price. The only thing is that the armor will not come with screws. There are going to be around 23 pieces in the armor just like the original 1/55 strike. If people are going to be paying with paypal and using a credit card they "must" add the 4% fee for the transfer in order for me to accept the correct payment. If they use paypal using a balance transfer there is no fee charge to me which would be best. I will post pics of the whole armor when the last pieces are done. I had some problems come up and it has kept me from finishing my projects. I will let everyone know when it finish.

Thank you

Silverdragon

:D

what about a price just for the canon and respective booster? I'll bet you will go through canon molds faster tan the other parts molds ;) . I actually need the two pieces that connect and mount the cannon to the booster to replace the one from jesse's strike resin I didn't dry fit before gluing :blink: . Extra cannons are always cool as well... though I still have a number I haven't done anything with extras can't hurt :lol:
