Title: Is this a Comet miniMetal Lunar Module from the UFO TV Series
Post by: AndrewBeasley on January 01, 2011, 03:30:48 PM

While going through my pile of unpainted lead I came across this in the 6mm box:

I must have purchased it awhile ago (6mm not been touched for two years going by the dust) and forgot about it.  I've had a hunt on Comet Miniatures UFO (http://www.comet-miniatures.com/browse.php?s_categ=131) pages, the Eagle Transporter Fan Site (http://www.eagletransporter.com/) and The UFO Series info site (http://ufoseries.com) and the closest I can come to is this picture of a bag tag (no model):

Things are:

1) I can only see one mould line so I think its original
2) The mark on the top looks like a drop of metal has dripped on to it
3) No name or markings are to be seen
4) No packaging was attached - I am sure I have not removed it

I'm currently thinking of giving up 6mm Sci-Fi (mainly Ogre / GEV) and clear the figures / rules / mags out so if anyone can help and possibly put a value on it I would be a happy chappie?

@Joroas  The 3497 thread is from the larger kit that Comet no longer stock but it does look like the tnthobies is a match  :D

Any idea of value?
