Oh and while I’m at it can we please have a distribution channel for these kits in Australia?

I wasn’t planning on getting one of these, but seeing how it looks I think I have to change my plans …..

DAMN YOU ROUND 2 !!!! You keep coming out with great stuff that I have to buy ….. 🙂

Keep up the great work!! I was only looking at the Star Trek release, but with the work you have been doing with your other Sci-Fi kits I’m looking forward to all of the new releases now….

Your going to make me go broke ….. 🙂

Thanks,
Tommy

Costs for tooling those came in very high. At one point, it was suggested that we eliminate new tooling and leave the kit as-is. However, Jamie and I felt strongly that we did not want to do a straight re-release of the kit. With a finite budget (and other projects on the table as well), some choices had to be made. We didn’t like eliminating those cool extras, but in the end we were glad to be able to keep at least the Id Monster and the crew members.

We have discussed the idea of offering a separate Forbidden Planet “accessory pack” sometime down the road, future budget and fan support willing. That’s definitely something that I think warrants further consideration.

You have to have a couple of blaster cannon stations at the very least–I’d heard Robby’s car was in the mix and you also have the tractor…you could even redo the pedestal stand to have it open and displaying the innards that get trucked out to wire up an FTL radio transmitter. Okay, that last one is going too far, but the blaster cannons at least?

Its not exactly an embrace but it gives the sense that she is near him for safety. I think we got a good balance there that they work well together or apart.

Now I have to buy one! My original will have the interior removed and a lighting core added to be in flight mode. The interior will be a seperate display. The new one will be a diorama – a Really Big Diorama!!
