mech_dude Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I recall seeing a garage kit for the various invid somewhere but no idea who made them or what scale they are, does anyone have any idea who made them or if you might have any for sale? Also does anyone know if there were any garage kits for zentraedi foot soldiers in 1/200 scale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mokman Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I have seen Invid garage kits on sale in Japan but I don't know the scale. There is a Zentraedi Foot Soldier kit that is nominally 1/200 scale. I have two of them. I say nominally 1/200 scale because, in my opinion, they are too tall compared to the 1/200 Nichimo battle pod kit. I base this opinion on the line art mecha comparison image out there on the web that shows the various destroids, veritechs and battle pods. In that image the Zentraedi soldier, all be it not in armor, barely tops the knee of the battle pod. The foot soldier kit is taller than the hip joint, almost to the shoulder thruster, of the Nichimo kit. I'll grant a little for the armor the foot soldier wears, but perhaps the height is a little too much. Anyways, not a big deal because how cool is it to have foot soldiers to go along with your mecha! 1/200 is my favored scale for gaming purposes. Now we just need a Gnerl fighter and male power armor!

Benson13 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) Talk to DarrinG. He pointed me in the direction to get some custom made invid scouts that were pretty sweet. I forgot the link or I'd give it to you myself. For pics check out the Mospeada thread in the sci-fi/anime section.

DarrinG Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 His name is Michael Palmer but I'm not sure he's doing these Invids any longer. But money often talks. Try him at: lots_of_great_toys@yahoo.com I had 3 Inbit Space Type Scouts made, 2 with guns, one without. He even made 3 different stands at different lengths for me... I do have one original 1/48th Invid Scout Kit RETPPU - But I would want about $70 to part with it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benson13 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 When I talked to that guy he wanted about $75 USD per Invid. This was about 3-4 months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
