Dax415 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Update: December 21 The first batch of kits will be ready for shipment next week! A tad earlier than expected but that's great for us right? Here's how things will work, final payment of $85 per kit goes directly to me, then your shipping payment goes directly to Andy who will pack and ship your kit directly to you. If you have any questions feel free to let us know Update: Ok the $70 part of the payment will be due this week, the sooner the better. It goes directly to the caster to get started on the project itself. Will be completed approx 2 months from now, around early to mid Jan. If you have questions feel free to ask Hey guys, been talking to Andy about doing another run of this kit. First to ask permission and get him involved, so everything is in the clear. In order to get things rolling we would need interest in 20 kits. I will ask Andy if he still has the pics of it or if someone here has pics of it, that would be great to add to the thread. Keep in mind the earliest this can get casted is about 2 months. Will be getting a cost estimate from Andy soon. So for now, anyone interested? UPDATE: August 14, 2015 Cost per kit $155 USD What you get: The kit will be supplied with a brown carton box and photocopied.instructions. Shipping stateside will be: $25 USD a kit (will ask how much if more than one kit) if outside the US, prob a little more. Interested: Dax415 x3 Spitfire_BR x1 Bolt x2 Heavy Melder x1 dbh1973 x1 THOR x1 Neptunesurvey x1 Edited December 25, 2015 by Dax415 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMK Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Is it a full kit or appliqué for a kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dax415 Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 This is a full kit, not a add on to a existing model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 will wait for picture and the cost if the minimum 20 orders are met. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dax415 Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Here are pictures of a completed kit, pretty badass in my opinion. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=28106 I believe there are a couple modifications done to it as well, but I'll have to ask Andy. Keep in mind this is a bulky kit and it weighs almost 2lbs! Edited August 8, 2015 by Dax415 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Any option to have this fully assembled and painted? I have no skills whatsoever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dax415 Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 Any option to have this fully assembled and painted? I have no skills whatsoever Unfortunately I'm in the same boat, you would need to commission this to someone with the skills to do it justice. There is quite a few people here with those skills and if you wanted too, could get someone here to do it. Not sure how much they would charge though.

Bolt Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) Any local Cons coming up in your area? What about comic shops or gaming stores? I'm a member of The Mandalorian Mercs , they're a bunch of sci-fi geeks too, And they have off topic threads for this such thing. And they too love to spend $ on high end custom creations😉 Edited September 17, 2015 by Bolt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
