Do we need a full resin kit of a Challenger? Bison is interesting, but at what cost? Cool guns though.

Interesting stuff. Has anyone ever used any of their products? I have never heard of them.

Are those resin castings or 3D prints?

Cheers,

The Site says "High Quality Resin" I may have to order after I get my Monthly Shapeways Payment tomorrow.

Very interesting weapon sets. I would love to see the resin instead of 3D images before ordering though.

Bison roof is wrong. No peak.

But I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for a 1/35 replica of an airsoft replica of a gun!

Some of the 1/35 guns are so new that I didn’t even know what they were and had to look them up.

Yes, I too wonder how these weapons look in resin.

I placed an Order for the L115A3, Barrett MRAD, and GAU-8 Avenger.

Time will tell,, and it seems free shipping on orders over $60 usd.

There are 1/35 WW2 weapons listed under the "Store" link that are not shown in the "New Releases."

Still waiting for my order to arrive. It supposedly shipped April 28/29, but no tracking info is available.

Looks like Battlegate Games released a couple of 1/35 engines. I'm not sure if they're tank engines or just generic. There's also released a WW1 1/35 Maxim machine gun and a few more modern guns.

It will be interesting to see how their products are. You can see some of their resin guns by clicking the "Inside our products" graphical banner at the bottom of the webpage.

My order has made it to New York today. Hopefully it'll only be a few more days to get to me.

All,

Here's a couple pics of what arrived.





It all arrived packaged inside 2 tins taped together, that were wrapped in a plastic shipping envelope

Probably nice, but I'm more impressed about Live Resin stuff, with much more detailing and designations
