THIS KIT IS NOW DISCONTINUED.

I have received a lot inquiries about the Antenna Module kit since I listed the CM Kit. So, I'm going to do another run of 25 kits, which was about the size of the first run.

The price is $175, plus $15 shipping. Shipping to Canada is $20 and the rest of the modeling world is $30 (UK, Europe, Japan and Australia).

The top photo involves a bit of Photoshopery, for purely sensationalistic reasons. But I don't doubt adding lighting to the Pod would be fairly easy.

Hey AMK'ers,
When I was designing the CMK 'work group' site the other day, I realized midway thru that I may as well throw a section in for the Antenna Module; as they are so closely related and that a lot of us who got the CMK might also go for the AMK too (if we could).

The 1mspwg has been a big inspiration for me in this regard and a great idea (and again my hat's off to you guys for the original notion!)

Here's the address: cmk15.proboards92.com/index.cgi

I wrote a little more about it in the CMK thread here. Pop over and have a quick read. I won't repeat those details here...

cheers to all!

I've finally been able to start delivering this kit! I will be posting an assembly guide (it won't be much as this one is pretty simple) in a day or so. We should have all the kits out around the first week of next month.

Hey all,
I just finished washing my AMK and I wanted to thank Scott for an excellent work. The casting ranges from paper-thin delicacy where appropriate to dense and blockish where needed. The detailing is uniformly fine and sharp all around. The engineering is precise and functional.

My commendations and sincerest thanks Scott for bringing this kit back to life!

As a first time buyer of your antenna kit I want to bring up the subject again of a scale astronaut figure to go with the kit. Now that you seem to have solved the earlier problems you had with your figures would something like this be possible?

My Recent Posts · (02/02/08

I believe the overall result of the scale wars for this and the CMK was: 1/30 -1/32, give or take. There was an astronaut recommendation over at the Clavius board, but I cannot think who posted it or when. You would have to dig a little. The heated scale debates can also be found under the Big D posts for the underwriters where it was covered thoroughly.

Another benefit for this kit and the CMK, is that you can take Paulbo's 1/6 Pod interior from the 1MSPWG, shrink it 500% and build an interior for these baby pods! 1/6 x (-500%) = 1/30, right? Trim from there. That seems like straight forward math to me, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's something I'm not considering in this equation...)

Wicked!

I won't be doing an astronaut figure for this scale, so my suggestion is to use one from Wilco models, which I think is 1:35.

Re: AmodelMan's Suggestion - anybody got access to a stereo lithography machine (cheap)? If so, and there's enough interest, I'll work up the interior in 3D, then have it mastered, clean it up, and cast it as a kit.

Guys, in case you're not aware, Chris Chulamanis who ran EVA Models, died suddenly of a heart attack last month. Details at http://forum.alienslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?t=3385

Howdy
Just saw that you will start shipping out the DAM kit toward the end of February. Any way to find out where I am on the list so I can get an idea of about when I'll be getting the kit?
Thanks
Frank

Hi Scott

Got Your antenna modules. I show you some pics. Great castings, perfect, state of the art. The little EVA pods are beauties with brass arms. More pics later on as build up goes on. I started to put together the first antenna module. I enlarged the three module holds up to 20 mm to take an alu tube with an innter diameter of 16 mm. So I have the possibilties for "future use" of the antenna module. I had to wait a long time, but I do not regret any second. I will stick with you up to the last resin drop, no matter how long it takes. Can't wait to see the big CM and the Aries 1 B ships.

Hi Scott! As it looks like the orders for the Antenna kit have been going out since late January, I thought I would check to see when you expect to have all the pre-orders sent. I am waiting patiently (have plenty of modeling projects on the bench), but just want to make sure my order didn't slip through the cracks.

Hi Scott,

I still haven't recieved my AMK, and I have not had any reply to the mails I have sent you. Can youconfirm when you expect to ship my order?

Matt

My Recent Posts · (05/12/08

Matt--

Sorry for not getting back to you. You will have your kit before the end of this month. So will everyone else who has one on order. I'll be emailing each person as the kit goes out. I'll also be making an announcement, before the end of the month, that will explain why things like this have been held up!

Hi Scott,

Three weeks into the next month and still no AMK.
I know you have been busy with the move and setting up again but I am feeling left out of the AMK owners club. Can you give me a realistic expectation of when you are shipping please.

Matt

My Recent Posts · (06/23/08

It's no wonder the CMK/AMK forum has been so quiet. A few people have asked me if I knew what's going on so I figured I'd check in.

I had thought all the kits were shipped a few months ago. I guess there are a few of us with kits. I'm the only one who's posted a build over at the CMK so I almost thought I was the it -until I saw SkyfullofStars links above.

Hope y'all get yers soon! It's a nice piece. The Pod is a crazy little piece of coolness.

Hi Scott! Any update on when you expect to send out the remaining Antenna kits to those of us who pre--ordered way back when? I have not heard anything since May, and it looks like there are a few of us still waiting from the posts on this forum. You had mentioned that you were planning on having a few of these kits for sale at Wonderfest. Any chance we can get the pre-ordered kits before then? BTW, hope you recovered from the move by now!

Mike
