Ex-Aurora Sealab kit

[bwayne64]

Steve's most recent update, as of last month, says late 2024.

A little later and it will be 2025, ; ) I keep wishing for a Christmas gift each year, but so far no joy.

Yep, just what I thought, : (

Meanwhile, if you need original Sealab greeblies in either original orange form or resin castings, gimme a holler. The STL files of all the pieces are also online for free and readily accessible.

Actually, there was a small update on December 19th on the CultTVMan website.
It indicated the new date is "Early 2025" with the following comment:
"Finalizing packaging and 3rd test shot"
Seems like we are getting closer ... I guess ...

Probably summer we “might” see it, they still have to print and make boxes and make the kits and pretty sure they are going to made in Shenzhen China which in that city produces a lot of injection mold plastics then loaded on a ship and sent to a U.S. port. Ship transport is 6-8 weeks in itself. So I’m going to say June/July 2025 the earliest.

Were there images from that 3rd test shot shared in December?

Just checked CultTVman - apparently the SeaLab kit has (finally) entered production and should be available in June 2025.
I don't know whether recent events will have an impact on the price or not.

Squadron just cancelled my order and said that the kit is no longer available for sale. Don't know what's up with that, : (

 

[SSR]

According to CultTVMan these kits could be available "Summer 2025" - Squadron has relisted the item on their website but no details as of yet on taking pre-orders. It would be nice if they would honor the original price for those that pre-ordered at they wouldn't give refunds - just store credit - for. Maybe we'll get there !

Are those STL's of the Sealab just greeblie pieces, or is it the whole Sealab kit? I'd like to take a look at those if you remember where you saw them.

Wo those are nice looking. I kinda wish it was all the parts on sprues though

I saw pics of a test shot shown at wonder fest last weekend

I saw the kit at Wonderfest, it looks great. I'm not an expert on the sealab, and I didn't have a real one to compare side by side, but I thought it looked really good, and it's the same ugly yellow. I talked to them about when the kit might be available. It sounds like they've been made, they are just trying to figure out what to do about the recent tariffs. August is what I heard.

That's good to hear at least.

Did anyone take pictures of what was sighted at Wonderfest?

It would be great if these were available by the end of the year. A very surreal feeling for everyone that's been waiting.
