9/8/11: Preliminary cost, according to the recaster, the set will be close to $50. That gets you:
2x Null rays 2x missile launchers 1x Crown 1x WST Megatron holder You can buy the weapons in pairs for $25 each type. 9/7/11 BIG UPDATE: Prototypes have arrived!!! YAY These are awesome. Well except the crown. it is too loose. But that can be fixed easily. Here is a video. And pics. UPDATE: 3D files being reworked for 3D printer issues Here is a render superimposed on the plane So as some may have seen my pics http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...tron-pics.html You might be able to tell that I really like this toy. One thing that I wanted was G1 style armament. So my friend and I are working on making it ourselves. Nullray blasters Here are paper cut outs to mock up how they will look on the plane. Here are some G1 styled rocket launchers (no they dont shoot) And for your Macross fans or those who want to make Jetfire. The Macross Gunpod. Update: Average turn around time, from the 3D printers is 2-3 weeks. Then I have to send them out to be recasted. So these wont be available until middle or end of September. Also a little surprise. We are making a crown for Cobra Commander. The crown should go over Commander's helmet. I plan to offer up the crown free for those who pre-order the set of missiles and nullrays. But please dont pre-order just yet. I need to figure out how much they will cost to print and more importantly how much the recasts will end up costing.

Looks fantastic! What kind of software did the model images come from? is that a drafting system? Based on your paper mock up, it sounds like you have some expertise with this.

Were the mockups done using zbrush?
They're pretty damn impressive. |

Definitely want a set. But the null rays seem a little small on the Starstriker. Do they look better sized in person?

The biggest problem is that if they are any bigger, they might be too heavy and fall off the skystriker hardpoints. |
