Models for ARC Generators
« on: 28 March 2014, 01:19:05 PM »
I am thinking both "fixed" looking (but obviously "portable" for the game duration,) and those that look 'packable.'

I am thinking putting one on an Elephant (or my spare Lion figure.)

Sources besides scratch building?

Gracias,

Glenn

Last Stand Convertibles makes Steam Powered Back Packs that might work. Sorry I'm away from my computer right now so I can't post a picture.

Still waiting, hopefully they are on the way.

If I don't see them this week I will try and contact seller asking for ETA.

I asked them for a price for shipping to the UK last week, but no-one has replied yet.

I'll give it one more try, but if they don't answer emails they don't get the business.  :-[

May have had a problem with their ordering cart and Firefox/Paypal...

researching...

Yes, Paypal/Firefox/LSC - somebody - did have some issues.  Payment just cleared when I submitted correctly...

Quote:

Each order has a "Submit Payment" link. Use this if you did not complete the payment when you placed your order.

If you have already paid please allow upto 48 hours for paypal to process and post the payment to our account, and for us to pack your order.

Once your order has been packed this page will update with that information. Your order will ship with the next available postal run. Monday thru Friday.

48 hours?  I thought I was a paranoid pessimist...

Gracias,

Glenn

Why it should be free because you are so patient, right?   ;)

Link?

The http://www.westwindproductions.co.uk/catalog/index.php has no search capability?  Really?

WTF, is this 1970?

Edit:  found it by clicking through all options - http://www.westwindproductions.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=204_224&products_id=1709

$11.71 plus shipping for one?!  Sorry, that is asinine.  I would build something first...


Gracias,

Glenn

I was reminded of some of the kit in Dr. Promethius' Electro Laboratory

http://pulpfigures.com/products/view/56
with a bonus that one of the pieces looks like an electro-static burst generator to me ....
but I notice that the cost is circa $15 - :(
I'm not saying let's go kill all the stupid people ... I'm just saying lets remove all the warning labels and let the problem sort itself out ...
