Post by pixelcorps »

i just got this email from the guys I got mine from, i guess if 10 people want one, you can get em!!

We are excited to bring you the news about our new model requesting system.
This is a chance to request production of an old model.

This is how it works:

There is a minimum order of 10 kit before production starts.
Once production start there is no cancellation.
A 20% deposit will be required at the time of production.
It will take approx. 2 months for the product to arrive after production have started.
You may check the order progress, or cancel any requests from your "My Account" section.

You can get started by visiting www.hobbyfan.com.

I want one of these. Doubt they'd be able to get them in though.

I'm torn. I'd love to get items like this to decorate my shelves with but I have no experience in assembling (other than snap-on models), so the odds are the model would either stay in the box or be horribly deformed.

Same deal here. As awesome as that is, I don't think I'd be able to handle painting it, much less it's assembly.

I'm in the same boat.

There was a time when I used to build and paint models, but these days I prefer it be done for me. ;)
