Ido Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 THe sv-51 is really too cool, you can say anything bad about its design but... Nice vf-1D, I wonder why hasegawa made such big head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightmareB4macross Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 Check this out. Why would you blemish your completed custom or model with "Gundam Markers", when you can do it with MACROSS MARKERS. The set even comes with little erasers, should you make a mistake.

Myersjessee Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 LOL...those SHE kits are still up! I almost accidently bid on them (my decimal was off a notch and I almost told a service to buy it now...that would have been ugly! ) Check this out!

Neova Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 If that SHE set was 1/3 of the price, I would have hit the BIN button. Someone needs to recast those things! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 SHE kits have been recasted ages ago when they first hit the market! The cast are great (I have one ) but the problem is the complexity of the kit and the almost impossibility of finding the correct tiny screws! Last but not least, the cost of the recast kit is almost as close as the real thing! I paid roughly US$173 for mine Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one big difference in the re-cast that makes it worthwhile: AVAILABILITY! I would buy the whole lineup if I can, re-cast or not. Still more affordable than those originals. Seriously, though, if someone has the kits now, I can get it recasted cheaply but will require 15-20 orders to do it. Sigh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 You have to remember though that overcoming the recast complexity and cost is perhaps only the easy part, getting the right sized screws, nuts and bolts are the problems I will try and dig mine out, it is partially built though and the screws do not fit that great either. I bought the kit in Wan Chai many years ago at "Hung Fat" (ground floor of Emperor Building if you know where it is). with any luck they might still have the molds.

wwwmwww Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 (edited) SHE kits have been recasted ages ago when they first hit the market! Odd... I've never personally seen a SHE recast. Could you post a picture of the box yours came in? I'd like to see. Thanks, Carl Edited February 18, 2005 by wwwmwww Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwwmwww Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 I'm hoping that the 38 shows up this year at WF. The 52 showed up 2 years ago (I think) and the 41 this year..with some luck they did well and will do the 38 this year...(which is the most underdone of the 3) Looks like it does...
