WildBill50 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 My daughter is working on this as I toil on my projects. She has gotten this together so far and is starting to paint it up. We can't remember what the TV show in Japan was. Anyway, she saw one of these built at a local contest and wanted to get one to build. Luckily one of our members had one that he was willing to part with. Thanks Bob.
kptucker Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 Very cool! It is a Black Tiger from the Japanese Anime series Star Blazers. A classic... I watched it religiously as a kid. Hope your daughter is enjoying the build. :D
Mark Aldrich Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 Got the DVDs and all the Yamato models except the 1/350 scale! Could not believe that guy was selling his for $999 at the Nats! What a great series that was!
