tundrayeti Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 Hello everyone! Well I am starting a new thread for these sets. For those of you who have purchased or are familiar with the ground support vehicle sets I have done previously, I also announced in that thread An upcoming Military vehicle set. Well I am now taking orders. It would have been sooner, but I have had a large number of Custom order lately (usually happens after Wonderfest) and I wanted these to be ready to go! I have also been recovering from surgery the last few weeks so for those of you who have been patient and supportive, Thank you! The sets are available in 1/72 and 1/48 scales. The set will consist of 1 M-299 jeep, 1 XM-3002 Low Gravity Jeep, and 1 APC. I previewed the jeeps at Wonderfest and they sold out pretty quick. I'll give about 3 weeks for orders to be placed and delivery will be about 2-3 weeks after that. I already have the molds done. so I wanted everything to be ready for this one. So Please let me know what scale you would like and how many. I can also add extra vehicles if desired. And now Pricing! The 1/72 set will go for $60.00 and the 1/48 scale will go for $90.00. Prices do not include shipping and handling. For those of you who are outside the US, i will calculate individually but for orders taken inside the US, shipping and handling will be $15.70. I will use the flat rate shipping. So With all that said Here are a few pics of the masters, and One of the jeeps I did for display at Wonderfest For those members who got your there at Wonderfest, Thanks for all your support! Sorry for the quality of the pics they were taken with my old camera. I'll post new ones of the first few castings this weekend Quote
Spitfire_BR Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 Im in for a 1/72 set and will send a PM to our dear friend TundraYeti about previous set ! Quote
PetarB Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 Very nice! These should go well with something else I have been working on for some time... Quote
Kicker773 Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 WOOOHOO very nice can't wait for my sets!! Quote
tundrayeti Posted November 2, 2011 Author Posted November 2, 2011 Your sets are almost ready to go Kicker! So far so good please keep those orders coming guys. Quote
tundrayeti Posted November 16, 2011 Author Posted November 16, 2011 So far the response has been good, keep those orders coming guys! Here is a quick snapshot of some of the casted parts for the low gravity vehicle. Thanks! Quote
MechTech Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 These look awesome! Keep up the great work! I'm glad to see after all these years you've taken up the challenge to get these vehicles done. There's been several people who started and weren't able to carry through. - MT Quote

I'm also adding some pics of the M-299 jeep casted parts Quote
gqhaha Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 very nice ,I need 1/60, how to buy this Quote
tundrayeti Posted November 23, 2011 Author Posted November 23, 2011 very nice ,I need 1/60, how to buy this Right now the sets are in 1/72 and 1/48 scale. I've been getting a lot more requests for these in 1/60 scale. So here is what I'm going to propose. If I get 30 or more requests for this set in 1/60, I'll go ahead and make the masters and produce these. So if anyone who wants this set in 1/60 scale make yourself heard here on this thread. once I get 30 or more requests, I'll make it happen. I'll post pics of the APC casts in the next 24 hours. Hope all my Macross Worlders in the U.S. have a great Thanksgiving Holiday Quote
PetarB Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 There's been several people who started and weren't able to carry through. - MT Indeed. Thorsten's project looked so close to finalising I wonder why he never finished it. Quote
TSP Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Indeed. Thorsten's project looked so close to finalising I wonder why he never finished it. Some people demanded Galactica Vipers instead. Quote
ahiachris Posted November 25, 2011 Posted November 25, 2011 These look awesome! Keep up the great work! I'm glad to see after all these years you've taken up the challenge to get these vehicles done. There's been several people who started and weren't able to carry through. - MT I have to shelve mine due to I'd been transferred to another work place and don't have the time to finish them. Quote
tundrayeti Posted November 25, 2011 Author Posted November 25, 2011 I have to shelve mine due to I'd been transferred to another work place and don't have the time to finish them. Time always seems to be a factor. I liked what you were doing with the Centipede though. Hope you get to finish it. Quote
Jasonc Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 I'd be in for a set in 1/60, but 30 orders??? Hope that happens, but if I knew better, sound like an "I don't want to make them in 1/60" goal. <Sigh> Please keep me posted if you do decide to do 1/60. Thanks Quote
tundrayeti Posted November 30, 2011 Author Posted November 30, 2011 I'd be in for a set in 1/60, but 30 orders??? Hope that happens, but if I knew better, sound like an "I don't want to make them in 1/60" goal. <Sigh> Please keep me posted if you do decide to do 1/60. Thanks It is happening. I know it's been a wait, but there has just been more demand for the other scales. My apologies guys. I have some 1/60 valks that need some love. I was just throwing out a number there. I will make it happen even if I get 10-15 orders. Once I get all the other orders done, I'll get the masters made, and then send them to EXO so he can do his magic. Trust me the whole point of this endeavor was to make these available in multiple scales for everyone. Quote
Jasonc Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 That's good to hear. Hope it happens for that scale. Quote
PetarB Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Some people demanded Galactica Vipers instead. His 1/72 Raptor is simply the best resin kit I've every built. Just magic. Quote
tundrayeti Posted December 1, 2011 Author Posted December 1, 2011 His 1/72 Raptor is simply the best resin kit I've every built. Just magic. I may have to get one of those. I did a 1/32 scale Galactica hangar and now have been asked to do one in 1/72. It's still in the development stage, but having a model for scale always helps. I may post that progress on another thread. Quote
tundrayeti Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Okay everyone, I have started a new thread in regards to the 1/60 scale stuff. Look for it here. Quote
tundrayeti Posted December 13, 2011 Author Posted December 13, 2011 Okay everyone, just bumping this thread and reminding everyone that orders for these will be taken into the new year. For those of you who have already paid, I will be shipping soon. You may get them after Christmas, but they are almost done. Quote
EXO Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 1/60 wont be til 2nd quarter of next year, as far as we've discussed. To get all the orders in and to find time for me to put those figures together. But it looks like interest is growing fast. Quote
tundrayeti Posted December 13, 2011 Author Posted December 13, 2011 yes I probably should have mentioned I was talking about the 1/72 and 1/48 scale sets. Quote
valid Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 added a 1/60 ground crew in their space suits.. and i'm sold for it! Quote
tundrayeti Posted January 20, 2012 Author Posted January 20, 2012 Just an update for everyone who has ordered the military sets in 1/72 and 1/48. Talked to the caster and I will be picking them up next weekend. I will start shipping soon after. If anything changes I'll let everyone know. I apologize for the delay but I've been traveling a lot for my job. Thanks and feel free to pm me with questions. Quote
Grayson72 Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 You need to tell your employer to stop sending you on trips cuz like you have Macross stuff to do Quote
ahiachris Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 You need to tell your employer to stop sending you on trips cuz like you have Macross stuff to do Or you can let us have you employer's contact and we'll tell him to stop sending you away. Quote
claude grant Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Or you can let us have you employer's contact and we'll tell him to stop sending you away. But if you need that dough to make our dreams a reality, then we'll wait patiently. Quote
tundrayeti Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 Thanks for the patience everyone, I would love nothing more than to be able to do nothing but Macross models, but I gotta make a living. My kids like to eat. . Unfortunately it's a necessary evil. They will be done soon guys, thanks for understanding. Quote
tundrayeti Posted January 31, 2012 Author Posted January 31, 2012 Yes. I still have to pick them up from the caster. We keep missing each other due to our schedules. It will be soon because i have prototypes he needs to finish one of his projects. I will notify each of you once i ship your kits. I apologize for the delay, again. I will have them soon. Quote
tundrayeti Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 Finally got the kits from the caster. And now the bad news... another last minute business trip. I will be in Nashville next week,I will start shipping as soon as I get back. For those of you who have prepaid, I will be contacting you individually. I apologize again everyone, but on the bright side I may have enough frequent flyer miles to come to the next MWCON! Quote
Grayson72 Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 I thought we agreed... no more business trips Quote
