How close to the goal are you?

Hey,
I am on the hunt for greeblies and someone in Adam Savage's Tested discord channel hinted about this project.
I would be interested in T7 or T8, just got a few questions.
In what file format are the scans, is there any conversion or clean up needed to be done?
How will the files be transferred to the backers?
Is a direct bank transfer possible instead of paypal?

Reznoc,
.stl files, as "clean" as I can make them.
Hard drive, dropbox, USB stick, whatever you like.
PM me for direct bank transfer details.
T8 has only one spot left.
All the others still available to support the project and keep the kits, greeblies, and resin flowing.

Tier 8 is GONE.
The scanner is here.
Keep the greeblies flowing at Tier 7 or below.

Yeah, hoo boy...
I'm interested in a Tier 7 spot. Will there be any photos of the donor kits themselves? I was thinking it would be nice to have some pictures of the boxes, and maybe even some pics of the sprues where some of the most notable donor parts have originated.

I would hope that the 3D parts will be in folders named specifically for that kit.
To provide photos to the level ventuoguy is requesting is a lot of work on top of an already huge workload.
This type of cataloging would take a lot of time. Time taken away from the making of the files. Not sure if practical but in the end would be very useful.

I figured it would be a nice gesture for posterity and preserving the lineage of the original parts. Besides a few blurry pictures of the 5 footer under construction in 1976 with shelving filled with model kits, I haven't found another resource. Just my two cents!

SK, I'm mainly interested in the 5 foot Falcon side parts. How many kits are involved in that?
Thanks!

$1 would be an incredible deal, which tier is that?
5-foot Falcon side part is dozens and dozens of parts -- I have not counted the official number yet.
That would be Tier 6.
Ohhh I see now. $150 for scans of 150 kits. The math is easy on that one! This means we will be getting the entire original model kit, not just the culled parts from Star Wars builds- incredible!! Can't wait to see the first scans
Ventuoguy,
Not quite -- that would take ten years or more. What it means is that you'll be getting the culled parts for the Star Wars builds. But if you need other parts, and are at Tier 7 or above, I'll be happy to scan additional pieces (i.e., I'll be holding on to the kits, not rEbaying them as most builders do).
