Thanks to HMS's query about this long OOP UK kit I have touched her up ( :roll: - with paint!!!) to bring this kit back to where it should be, on the display shelf.
I don't usually do repaints of damaged kits, but I'm glad I did, plus I added some ferns that were not on the original I made.
This is one of those 1/5th scale kits, that could be called 1/6th if you consider the victim to be a 1/6th scale character.
Originally released by Phantasy Recast (who sculpted original kits) and sculpted by Paul Pearson. Molds were I believe sold on, but I have had no news yet (for Ian) as to who may have them. The kit was being sold by the now defunct Star Wars Emporium.
This was casting No. 2 of a limited edition, but I don't recall an edition size being mentioned, and was released approximately 1995/6.
The netting is made from ladies fish-net tights (I'm just glad I had a wife at the time who could go in and by me a pair :mrgreen: )
