I would like the entire kit, if that is doable.

I'd be in for a full kit too. 
If this goes forward my plan is for injection type 2 parts molds for the parts that get done, and even HDP Resin for the more fragile parts like cages and the hoses.....at this point it's the only way i would approach parts like that.
I don't really think that full kit casting is a good option only because i think that it would approach the cost of a full "real" kit....although i do know that they come up so rarely that simply having it available is likely attractive....
I do think that having a library of parts that are needed for the specific builds is the way to go...

I'm with Mike - it makes the most sense to first do what I am officially calling the Builder Kits™. And I agree that if you want a whole Sealab, you'll spend just as much money as it would cost for him to make the whole shebang.
Let's focus on our goal - making spaceships!!
I'm thinking this is the best order to attack the releases, gauging on who is building what:
Escape Pod
X-Wing
Colonial Movers
Battlestar Galactica
ANH Star Destroyer
Sandcrawler
Turbo laser
2' Death Star Tiles
Blockade Runner
Any total parts overlap will trigger a simultaneous release. Price will be determined by how many parts/how much it costs to make... no idea yet. Will post Sealab photos on Tuesday, so we can continue to ID... but we seem to have enough on some of these to get started soon!

I thought I'd contribute since there haven't been any numbers thrown out there for the 5' Falcon yet. These part counts include saving scraps that are cut off.
1 (x2)
4 (x14)
23 (x2)
24 (x8)
33 (x8)
45 (x1)
Possibly 56 (x11) on the radar dish?
71 (x2)
78 (x8)

Good to know - but please reread the thread - this is NOT an interest list. I want this to be an ID thread and I don't want it moved from this section while we are IDing parts. I will start a Junkyard thread when things are ready. This won't be limited or hard to get - no need to say who wants what.

Check! For anyone looking for kit scans for IDing there's pretty decent scans over at the Studio Scale Modelers forum.
