1/24 V-2 Kit - SpaceMonkeyModels

Just stumbled across this one on the largescaleplanes.com modeling forum: a small company named spacemonkeymodels has recently released a 1/24th scale, blow-molded V-2 kit for $59.95. A little smaller than XD scale, but an innovative way to produce kits, and the price seems fair.

http://www.spacemonkeymodels.com/Spacem ... odels.html

I'll probably get one just to see how the whole process works and to experience the quality of the final kit. Would prefer to have 1/18th scale, though, and intrigued by the possibilities of his process, so religiously following gburch's progress with his 3D printer project. :)

Cheers!

Ironically, I came across this kit yesterday. Not surprising, I guess, since these days I end up seeing just about everything there is on the web to do with V-2s. I may well get this kit as a reference.

Doh! Missed YT's earlier posting of the same kit on the "1/16th V-2" thread... viewtopic.php?f=1&t=24234
Ugh.
