laroy Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I have been talking with the manager of Hobbyfan and there may be a possibility of some of these kits becoming available to us again, with a minimum of 20 orders. So far the Ingram and Peacemaker have been a possibility. Please send a message to Hobbyfan for all interest. There were some very beautiful designs, and I would like to be able to have them and hope you will too. These were the kits used in the Patlabor 3D show in Hobby Japan Magazines in the late 80's and early 90's, including the military verrsions Samaon and Helldiver, as well as all the enemy versions. Thanks guys, La ROy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laroy Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 No, these are not 1/35 they are 1/48 scale made in the late 80's by Kaiyodo, fixed scale resin. It does not look Like the will be anymore 1/35 MG kits although I would like to see that as well. I have asked for pics from Hobbyfan and will post them when/if I can get them. Post some pics.

Mechamaniac Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Hmm, iunno, a labor in 1/48 would probably be just a little too teeny to really be any fun. It would only be useful to me to show scale with my 1/48 Valks. Now, 1/18 scale would ROCK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys, La ROy I finally got some pics. The retail price is not for sure but guess around $40-45 and possibaly a discount if we can get 20 each ordered. The pics are attached. I believe if these 2 are succesful there will be others like the enemy, military, and construction types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olivers Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Count me in for both of them. I have a 1/48 Grau Bear and phantom unmade in the loft. Hopefully they will do a few more of other labors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
