Without knowing where your client got this one I would say it is original.


EDIT: My mistake... the recasts are often in 6 pieces rather than the original 8. Sorry about that: http://www.xofacto.com/justin021/luckyrecast.jpg

Thanks. I didn't there was a list to compare originals to recast. I still dosn't prove weater this was a recast or an original. Could simly be that the recaster in this case made the exact same pieces.

You can contact XOFACTO, I'm sure he can tell you whether your clients is an original or not. Don't hold me to this, but iirc he's the one owning the rights to the kit.

I dont think he is saying his client got it from X-O facto I think he is just letting you know where you can get one now if you want one he said he didnt know where his client got it.

Excuse me, but where did I make the assumption that the client bought it from XOFACTO? I only said they could probably get it verified from XOFACTO regarding whether it was original or not, as I believe he is the producer of the kit.

Thats right, I did't say where he bought it. Simply because I don't know where. But I also think that all originals comes from XOFACTO.

There was a Diorama Build up in the Spring 2004 Issue of KITBUILDERS.
Issue # 48. It was really impressive. However, I think you did a better Job on the suit.

Thanks, the one in kit builders looks more like it did in the movie. But I felt that due to the size of the kit most detals would get lost with just a flat white paintjob.

Wow that looks great, nice job.

Thanks.


Getting acknowledgement from you guys really means a lot to me. :cheers
