Cool to see the classic Raiden Mark II fightercraft fully realized as a plastic model kit. What's the MSRP of it?

If you played R-Type Final 2/3 recently you may have noticed the Model Squad has been added to the company splash page (as well as PLUM).

https://model-squad.com/

They're selling 3D printed kits and shipping worldwide. At 1/72 they must be pretty big! I don't like their stands though.

It was delayed then the postal service went on strike. But now it's here:

I'm a Pink Laser user so the Force goes on the back. For some reason I also recorded a 1st loop, no miss to share along with pictures of my new model, back when this was originally supposed to be released:
