Not sure if you have answered this one yet but when will there be a kit available in the junkyard?

Look who's been mentioned on Kotaku.com :lol Congrats! And I quote: "takemymoney.jpg has never been more apropiate." Futurama Ship Looks Like CGI, Is Actually Real Model I saw that from the post of the offical Futurama FB site - you are famous and recognized man!

Absolutely stunning work, Volpin. It's magnificent.

Good grief! Words fail me at the brilliance of this piece. My wife and I are huge Futurama fans, and she directed me to the Kotaku.com article. I immediately came here and was thrilled to find this thread. If you make a run of these you'll make a lot of people (myself included, of course) happy. Congrats on a wonderfully executed project.

Opened up eBay this morning and there she was... right on my front page under the Remarkable Listings. Hopefully this will give you some significant exposure.

Thanks everyone! It's been a heck of a project and yes, ship #3 is on eBay right now. It's doing better than I could have hoped for!

For those curious, kits will be a possibility coming soon, once I get the quirks worked out on my rotocasting machine.

I hope you enjoy the final photos, and this quick vid of the assembly process:

Good news, everyone!

Such an amazing build. Thanks for taking the time to document and share it!

Very nice. I like that you were able to determine a scale by the stairs.

I'm such a Volpin fanboy. Thank you for all the extensive write ups and flicker photosets for all your projects. They are inspiring.

There has been a change in policy regarding posting in the Junkyard; effective today you need to have a premium membership to post FS threads for unlimited runs, which is sort of a thing I do from time to time.

Coincidentally, I got a premium membership today.

Huh.

"Huh" is right! I'm getting crushed out tomorrow (April 15th) re: my income tax return but I hope to pick one of these up soon. Thanks for making this happen.

By unlimited run, you mean I can buy this at any time, right?
I'm allocating some budget for next month as well.
