And yet if a Garage Kit Manufacturer comes up with same- they'd come down like a ton of bricks.

Perhaps, but that'd likely be due to cost. Most people (myself included) don't want to spend more than $100 bucks for a model.

That's a styrene kit produced by a large kit manufacturer, not some dude in his Garage. Big difference. I'm not going to argue these points any furthur than this, it's not worth the effort.Moongrim wrote:Got the 350 TOS enterprise and all of the aftermarket stuffs that goes with it?Shark wrote:^

Re: What new ships would you like to see from Revell of Germ
I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder.
I realized a long time ago that my interests in terms of model subjects is extremely varied and wide-reaching. If I limited myself to only styrene kits from major manufacturers (or even short-run kits from lesser-known manufacturers), I'd be missing out on a lot of stuff. At this point, if I see something that interests me, I pick it up, regardless of scale and/or manufacturer. It may be years until I get around to building that particular model, but it'll be in my stockpile when my brain says "time to build that kit of (fill in the blank)".

A USS Voyager at the half size of their clumsy 1:677 model. I would say at 1:1400.
Also a Nova class at the same scale or 1:1000 wouldn't be bad!

Re: What new ships would you like to see from Revell of Germany?
Yeah, I am aware of the resin stuff but they are quite expensive and I don't expect to pay more than $20 on such small kits. Reason is because I really don't want it that badly.Moongrim wrote:Federation Models- Models- Alliance Models- AM-02.

Of course if Revell (or Round 2) release those nice models in plastic for a fair price I will be very glad to buy them. Other than that I can live without having them on my shelf...

Re: What new ships would you like to see from Revell of Germany?
Yes, it is, but you don't find it anywhere! And when you find they ask a small fortune for this! I think that would be very nice if Revell re-release it or if it release a stand-alone version! For sure they have the molds dumped somewhere in a corner of one of their factories!zookman wrote:wasnt the voyager in the 3 piece voyager kit 1/1400 scale
