This is the most challenging model of my career. Moebius REALLY did their homework on this. This is my entire childhood in one kit. I'm weighing possibilities, testing ideas, my God, I've put these together 3 different ways in my head already... factoring in paint durability, shine vs. dull, realistically imperfect vs. ideal as in memory... in the next couple of weeks as I dive in deeper, I will make hard choices very quickly. I'm terrified!
EXCELLENT!!:thumbsup



Is no one else here doing this kit?
 
I have one. It's on the list.
It may be my next project. I'm holding off to see what kind of supplement kits come out. Mainly hoping for photo etch.
 
I would like some etch for the inside of the 'head' area.
The sides of the triangular 'brain' area, the 'crown' at the top and the 'ears'.
Thinner etched parts would be a nice touch.
I have read in a post that ParaGrafix is considering developing a set.
 
Still taking care of residual seam issues while testing new auxiliary sound units I just received today. Starling is my base unit, but I wanted to go the extra mile.

 
Why thank you Cap'n!! An encouraging word from a master is always highly appreciated!!
And one day I'll do my dream project of a perfect Millennium Falcon- your past work will guide me.

In the mean time, I just had to saw apart the tread sections, sand them & re-glue them because I felt they were a full mm+ too far apart. :eek


Sawing & sanding builds muscle tone.
 
First I heard of this.

Looking forward to your progress.

Like you this is the Iconic prop from my childhood!!

Oh man, order one! I'm lighting these puppies, but if I wasn't they'd be done already; they go together so easily. And they're like $50 (I found one for $36).
 
Looking forward to you finished builds. My wife loves B9! I have to get her one at WF next month!
