Do you have a backstory for these designs in mind or is it purely a matter of designing/engineering your own transforming plane?

@Mommari do have a short story in mine mind, the plot or part of the world is something similar to drama [Firefly]+cowboy bebop. I do love welcome aboard anyone who are interest in making a short animation, writing, etc

Toys and animation... you have some expensive goals.  lol

I do know some Comic Book artists but nobody who does animation.

@Mommarlol, 42 yrs old this year, have some saving for these goals. Finger crossed.

Hi again.  Apologetically, this may be an ambiguity of language and perhaps some of us don't understand the intended meaning.

When you said "is anyone interested in purchasing and build?"  

* Did you mean "interested in buying and building a 1/24 STL"?    Or...

* Did you mean "interest in buying and building a 1/24 or 1/48 product as STL 3D print in FDM/PLA rather than wait for future injection mold product"?  .

I believe you surely realize many people on this forum deeply admire your creation and would likely want to buy a kit once ready to start a sales campaign. 

So if your question is intended to gauge interest, I would strongly advise you do this similar to how ChristopherM did the VF!AG campaign.  Announce a date range of when you will be collecting preorders, decide whether you will ask for up-front deposits and how you will collect the funds (PayPal etc), and reveal the final, total price per unit.   Otherwise, people here won't understand if you are "formally" announcing intent to sell product, or just polling for general interest.  

I think we also understand that you could run a campaign for STL 3D printing now, and a year or two later have a larger, commercial scale offering based on your intended tooling investment for plastic injection molding.

Again, great creation

Purchasing a kit or the stl?

apologies for my incomplete sentences! is 1/24 scale booth display fully articulated FDM printed for now. since the injection product needs to wait for about 2yrs, sorry.

The pictures are really nice! A real feast for my eyes. 
 

What can we expect from now? Do you have any lead of business, what are you planning? 

I am asking this because I know that more and more hobbyist have their own 3D printers and could be more than happy with a Stl package to buy and build. And maybe it can help get to the next finalement step?

So are these 3D CAD images, or pictures of actual printed, transforming resin/plastic mecha that you have put together?  I like all of the color choices that you have gone with and cant wait to see what else you come up with!  Good Job!

The yellow is an inspired color choice, amazing how different of a feel it gives the plane to the other schemes you showed.  Nice work!

Thank You!

Thank You! Progress so far going very slow.. Planning for next year wonderfest. Building a 1/24 Scale Type 2 booth display for visitors to experience transformation and slowly doing the injection CAD works.

Thank You! Is a CAD rendering, next will be Battroid Rendering, Type 2 Fast pack rendering and Type 3.
