captain america Posted October 5, 2007 Author Share Posted October 5, 2007 Hey everyone! The casting has begun in earnest, and the parts are looking fantastic! I'll be posting a few pics later so that you can see the casting quality; I already started cleaning parts on mine and it's gotta be my favorite model so far: the quasi-clear front dome gives the Scout a really eerie, alien feel. Anyway, onto the nasty stuff... Each kit price: $140.00 Shipping rates: all quotes are for airmail w/insurance. -1-2 kits, throughout North America: $16 -3-4 kits: $26.00 International, including South America, Europe, Hong Kong and Australia: -1-2 kits: $32.00 -3-4 kits: $49.00 Payment methods accepted: -International Postal Money-Order in US funds is my prefered method, and it can be sent to the usual coordinates. -Silver eagles, maples or bars sent by mail--just be sure to wrap them carefully! -Paypal, though this will incur an extra charge of $6 per model because the Paypal nazis feel entitled to take a whole $0.04 off every dollar I recieve. -Western Union money transfer: this is a fairly expensive method, and I'd advise it only if you're ordering 4 kits at a time, due to WU's massive service charge. Shipping should begin in roughly 1 week from now, decal situation permitting. Below are a few pics of some raw castings with the flash removed... Looking quite good. As usual, the floor is open to questions, either here or via PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghadrack Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Payment sent via IPMO, I am excited. Questions? Are you available, and will you marry my 60 year old mom? Maybe if you adopt me I can glean some of your skill by basking in the glow of your awesomeness. It probably cures cancer too. Silliness aside, thanks again for tackling another cool Macross project, I look forward to my Kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sdf-1 Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 I just started to regret I didn't get any of the Destroids. Should've gotten my favourite Phalanx at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captain america Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 Hey everyone! Just to let everyone know that virtually all paid orders have shipped, and some will likely be arriving this week. Also, as promised, please find herein the instructions for the kit. I'm in the final casting strech with the second set of molds, so if anyone wants a model, now's the time to let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miriya Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Captain America, Incredibly great work man! This is too sweet! I love it so much! I wish I could get one but first of all I am totally broke, secondly I have never completed a model in my life, third have never painted a model, and fourth do not have the money to pay someone to do it for me. BUT I wish I did. This is awesome. I have wanted a good quality Regult for decades! If I win the lotto soon you will be hearing from me.

Sdf-1 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 (edited) Definitely the best Regult existing in the universe. Edited October 25, 2007 by Sdf-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Q Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Absolutely amazing. I think this is your best work yet. The detail, the proportions, they're all perfect. I'm proud to know I've got one on the way to me. To think, you're almost done with the whole enemy line. We just need the Q, the Glaug, and the Nos.

captain america Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 (edited) Hi guys! Just wanted to give everyone a heads-up that I'm stopping production of the Scout; I got a whole whack of orders and I want to make sure I don't promise more than I can deliver. I have one tentative order for Vermillion One, 1 on hold for Neptunesurvey, and 2 for Cool8or. Beyond that, I shall deem the project closed, and a smashing success Edited October 30, 2007 by captain america Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghadrack Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Glad the runs went well, I was surprised to see you seemed unsure of how the kits would sell. Seriously, I gotta believe those masters are worth their weight in Gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
