Mospeada

[Snake Eyes]

And i have also replied to that mention saying that I am very well aware of that fact...

I just heard in his video that you can get it on BBTS so i assumed that Jenius had gotten his from there too... so i was just wondering.

Working on some weapons.

Old school is nice but where are all the 3d printed 1/12 scale Mospeada hand held weapons??? Lol

Nice work.

Realistically, to 3D print tiny weapons like these you'd need a good SLA (resin) printer. Even then you might be struggling. Most people use FDM (plastic) so they can make larger models instead.

They'd probably end up looking better being hand-made and cast; no steps or heavy texture that way. That's my plan.

Thanks Tober. Tbh you can get some decent weapons from Shapeway now. Hence why I suggested 3d printed. Alt is top sculpters producing some amazing work and casting to sell.

Oh never shirk from having a go myself by hand. I know more talented folk out there but would they do aftermarket goodies for us all?

I think I've found just the right level of smoke for the visor... enough to still make out the lines and a face underneath, without looking like a jack o' lantern.

Oh, and somebody gave Amazon.jp bad intel, because my Ray is already here!

Great to have the pair together.

Busted!   

Unfazed, Ray quickly finds a much bigger weapon to "borrow..."  

Love this @tekering!

Their size should fit the 1/12 scale (frame arms girls)  just pick some somewhat futuristic weapons.

Then there's the little armory 1/12 weapons that are more realistic.

I might consider this options until someone makes an official hand guns for them. Including Ley's Bazooka.

I'm ordering some new machining equipment soon; that's about the only reason why I haven't started an official 1/12 MOSPEADA aftermarket gear thread. Bazooka, saddle-packs, water bottle, and at least one sidearm are what I plan to include in the kit. I just need to start setting things up first.

Count me in for ordering when you make these. Thanks!

Well had a dio plastic fire from PTE. Went and Dremelled it out and fitted an LED tea lite candle under it.

Then had fun making a nice desolate hovel for poor Stig to take shelter in.

Also showing off Stig's climbing abilities.

This is amazing... like... wow.

Also, for those of you who've received Ray; Where did you order from? Preordered/paid for mine from Sentinel direct some time ago and still nothing in terms of shipping. Really weird.

Kuma it looks like the people that already received Ray reside in Japan, and got theirs from Amazon.jp

NY seems to have shipped out, and my CDJ order was shipped this morning.

Have you sent an inquiry to Sentinel Direct? There is the Golden Week holiday period to consider too.

I paid HLJ last Thursday, requested/paid PW shipping Friday and they shipped this morning (Tuesday).

[jenius]

I'm in a real bad rhythm with packages. Everything I ship EMS seems to go out from the departing country on a Monday and be ready for delivery the following Saturday which is fast enough... except I get things shipped to work so then I don't get them until the next Monday and miss my opportunity to spend time with the item on the weekend :(. So, Ray shipped this morning... we'll see how it does in the race against weekend delivery attempts.

[SuperHobo]

For those who have Ray, does he feel any different in terms of build quality than Stig?

I do the same and that constantly happens to me. Today for instance is Monday and guess what? I received 2 boxes of goodies that were set to arrive Saturday lol. On a positive note I look at it as something to look forward to on a dreadful Monday.

Now that's something I don't have for him....yet!  Open pendant and a Hologram would be awesome. 

He is holding his H90. 

However as not visible. Yes he is holding the pendant LOL

[teckno viking]

So you guys/gals with packages going to workplace. That so A, you don't miss package. B, partner doesn't know hahaha

I know a fair few folks and it's defiantly B!

As for Rey. He was dispatched by HLJ yesterday and now in Tokyo ready to fly to the UK.

Thanks guys. Go figure the night I say something I wake up to a shipping notice.

A chap posted this image on one of my fb posts.

Looks like After Market Upgrades are starting to appear/in the pipeline from folk.

 

Not spoken to the chap who is doing this yet.

Engine re-enforcement. Maybe to fill the gaps? I know some didn't like that.

Just been to his FB page. Yep it's to fill some of the gaps in the Engine.

TBH the gaps don't bother me after all Mospeada is still a few decades ahead of us and Anything can happen with technological breakthroughs. Thus meaning Less engine space.

Precisely. Plus, where do you you put the filler bits when the bike transforms? Just imagine the rider having to get off his bike, pull-out the filler parts, lay them carefully on the ground and get back on before transforming

I'd say neither. I get my items here faster than I would at home. They are here at work before noon and at home it would be towards 7-8pm. In the past it use to be to hide my items from the wife and or not hear or feel her blank stare like I"m doing something wrong. I don't get it. I don't drink, smoke, I dont go to the club or party. I spend most of my time if not all at home hanging with my kids and pets and working on the house + working out. I coach my kids sports teams. I think its a jealousy issue that for one we are spending time with our toys and most importantly big money is spent, but not on them (not that I don't or we don't go out as well because we do). My wife doesn't have any hobbies at all. 

I'd love to hear from the female collectors on here or the guys that actually have their wives/gf's support their hobbies. 

It would be interesting to hear from the female collectors that have their husbands/bf's that don't support them and give them the evil eye lol

My gf has no hobbies at all, except for running, working out, and shopping (don't tell her I said that last part).

She has accepted that I'm a dork when it comes to transforming bikes. She likes her expensive purses and handbags, and I like my bikes (i'm not stereotyping; that's pretty much literally the two purchasing habits that we have that are basically a "I'm doing this just for me, with no identifiable benefit to family or career").

That, plus she thinks the BGC bikes and characters (and Priss in particular) look cool, and loves going on actual motorcycle rides together, so, by extension, my hobby is more acceptable.
