Progress update. Thought Id share here as I had some people ask about it.
Pictured here is the kit in all its glory. Also pictured is the Brass Name Plate. This is the castings I have made, Dave's look same, but I did not want to get all his all out as they are numbered and in tupperware boxes.
This was a very small exclusive run that is finishing now. You dont realize just how many parts actually make up this kit.
There are other kits out there, that have combined assemblies to save time, or maybe that is just how they got thier masters for whatever they are remolding. Many of the "From the Studio Kits" out there are just recasts of the ICONS or of the Pyro we sold so many years ago.
I posted to share and generate discussion. These castings were created from molds made by Mr Dave Jones, from ILM with one exception, the wings were originally in two parts each, like the hero, but were combined into one for ease of casting.
