M5A1 - SNAFU KID - now available - 1:18 AND 1:16
Posted: Sat Dec 10, 2016 12:30 pm
Not to sound like a used car dealer, but I am indeed clearing out my inventory to make room for inbound M5A1's. (haha!) Check out the BST thread for a list of already printed Shapeway items I'm offering below my printing cost. http://www.warbird-photos.com/gpxd/view ... =3&t=34990
While 3D Printing is still expensive, with a lot of optimization of the model, the final pricing came out a little better than expected with the 1:18 version running about $395 USD and 1:16 at $530.

Features:
- Rotating turret
- Gun elevates
- Vented decks
- Functional Turret Hatches
- Functional Chassis Hatches
- Hatch periscopes rotate 360 degrees

** Note that the .30 cal MG and mount are from the 21st Century halftrack. If you need one, there are some in 1:18 on Shapeways.
Here is the final M5A1 "SNAFU KID" as lovingly finished by our very own 1958Zelda:
