Hey fellow Macross Worlders! As many of you know, I switched from 1/200th scale to 1/350th scale because of how hard it was to get “extras” like aircraft and armor in 1/200th scale. Plus the price was high since many were collector’s items. So I switched to 1/350th scale and solved all those problems in just a few model kit purchases! Plus, more of our own members are making 1/350th kits of some awesome, long awaited subjects: http://www.macrosswo...ic=40821&page=7 Other kits in this scale soon to be released are the Valk, Spartan, and Monsutārobotto. All have some sort of MechTech mechanical gimmick or extras. The buildup will be posted later in "The Workshop" threads. ACCURACY Scaled line art drawings were glued to the plastic stock whenever possible to ensure accuracy while machining and that all the parts fit properly when complete. Then each assembly was meticulously compared to the plan line art (copy of the same drawings) to double check accuracy. GIMMICKS Arm up! - It sucks when you have to buy a whole new kit just for a couple pieces to make another kit version. So this kit comes with the standard "toupee" head lasers AND the missile mount with BOTH the light artillery rocket pods and the the heavy missile pod parts. Old red eye - The iconic red eye is recreated with a tiny transparent red glass bead. The bead's reflective center gives an illuminated look when in the light. All out of joint - the legs and engines can be glued in whatever pose you want so you can squash humans or make it look like it's flying or running. The larger cannon are on ball joints so you can pose them in whatever angles you want. Please note the kit canon will be resin - not machined metals. DECALS Because most of the Regult's markings are white, I had to bypass decal printing for now, but I’m searching for someone who can do it at an affordable price. It's so small anyhow, you probably won't miss them. Special thanks again to EXO for “duplicating” some parts in a couple of photos so you can see what one looks like “assembled” before paint. PURCHASE -OPTION ONE This kit is being sold for the extremely fair price of about $10.00-$15.00 (USD) plus shipping. I don’t have the capability to cast at the moment so Tundrayeti has the production reigns and is already on it. The advantage to you is that you can meet him at Wonderfest and buy one in person! Production is geared for Wonder Fest at the moment. You can PM him and order one after Wonder Fest if you can’t make it there. For those of you living under a rock, Yeti will be here: http://www.wonderfest.com/ . -OPTION TWO Three of these kits are also included along with two of EXO's Zentran Soldiers in Tundrayeti's Re-entry Pod kit: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=40821&page=7 The versions in the re-entry kit may be simpler with less parts to assemble - that decision is still in the works. As always, questions and comments are welcome! - MT
