32 inch ESB Millennium Falcon

[falcon dude]

How many, if any of you guys are also on the MFalcon group at yahoogroups?
For those who are not, we are currently trying to organize a run of resin copies of the Extex parts for the members. Check it out if you are interested in a copy of the parts. It sure beats the hell out of having to scratchbuild them. Here is the link to the group page if you are interested.

You guys have the parts?
Have them molded yet?

 

[falcon dude]

We dont have have the parts yet. We are having a poll to see how many people want them. One of the members is going to buy the kit and make copies of all the nescessary parts for the rest of us at an estimated price of U$40, if there is enough interest. If you want a set please let us know.

I talked to Moe we might be offering the Smaller 'tranny" part that he made as set.
Ill post some pics shortly.

Thanks to you guys for offering this. I hope it pans out! Maybe these parts will force me into the Falcon building realm a bit sooner than I anticipated. Such a time taker but certainly well worth it. These castings should take a lot of the fear factor out of the prospect of beginning!

If anyone is interested, here's the details on the Entex 1/8 Porsche castings that Helder posted about earlier:

Feel free to Check out the Yahoo MFalcon builders site:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MFalcon/


Casting Kits: "Early Bird-Pre-Order special"
The set will include all the parts from this kit that are used on the
32" Falcon. The two large transmission halves, plus 3 other parts.
(if more parts are found, they will be included also).

Everyone who orders and pre-pays for a set of casting will get them
for a one time price of $40 plus shipping.

If 15 or more kits are ordered at this time, the price will be $35
plus shipping.

The pre-order period will be 5 week, with the kits shipping the week
of March 18th.

Bonus: After posting the pictures, if someone I.D's a part used on
the 32" Falcon that I missed, I'll give that person free shipping.
(and everyone gets that extra part).

I'll start taking payments next week, after I post the photo's.
If you are definitely interested in a set, please email me your full
name and address so I can start a list. I will begin to collect the funds next week after everyone has had time to look over the photos. Thanks!
