Phyrox Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 This has been a most useful thread to be sure. But...still no ideas as to where to get a high quality scan of the cutaway from the inside of the book? I am going to try and make this something to put in my room/office, so the one with the huge page seam isn't going to work I'm afraid. Maybe if they come out with a second print run or something I can pick another one up and take it apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowlightman Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Could have to do with, I dunno, copyright infringement? This way Macrossworld cannot be blaimed for being party to such a thing 380513[/snapback] Yeah, that's why we aren't allowed to discuss model kit recasts, bootleg videos, ROMs or other such "legal" activity on here, right? Gimme a break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsu legato Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 It's even less official than the Technical Manual, but this fan-made M41A Pulse Rifle manual is pretty damn cool too. http://www.alienscollection.com/derrick.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uxi Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Thanks 'Moose! Just navigating the site was fun in itself. 380485[/snapback] Yup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phyrox Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 Is the co-pilots side window incorrect on the Aoshima Dropship? The manual diagrams have it shaped differently.Chris 379933[/snapback] Yeah, the Aoshima is right here. The gunner's canopy glass is the same on both sides and looks like this: 379936[/snapback] Ya know what? I was rewatching Aliens tonight, and checked some of my reference photos, and it turns out that the gunners canopy glass IS asymetrical. So, the cutaway and orthographic dropships in the technical manual are correct for the port side. The Aoshima is the one in the wrong.

GreatMoose Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Yeah, I've got the Halcyon dropship, and the windows are asymetrical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marso Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Ye gawds, I remember having this book in my hand at the bookstore on numerous occasions about 5-6 years ago, and simply not taking the plunge. Wish I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
