It's odd but true -- there are people who get satisfaction just knowing something is available without actually purchasing it.  That's fine, but of course it leaves the manufacturer in a precarious position.  You invested hundreds of dollars just to create a fleeting sense of happiness in a complete stranger.  :-D

I guess it's a sense of accomplishment?  "I got that made."  That could be it I imagine.

Anyway, I'm not sure how I got on to talking about this.   lol  I hope to have a casting of the Element in a few weeks and will put it up for sale as soon as I do, but it will have to be cast to order.



Fair nuff.

I'm still waiting on whenever you release those Spetsnaz for the Neo-Sov dudes....  ;)

Out of interest, the faction this immense death machine will be reinforcing, will they have other vehicles? Or, are they the types to just beam down with their machine crab buddies and zap everything?

Yes, that's the idea. :) The war machines fuck everything up and the War Caste and Kallinects beam down to kill anything that survived or was protected by destruction.

Because once you've driven a Maneuver Element all other vehicles just feel inadequate. ;)

Yes, it definitely gives the impression that anything else would be virtually unnecessary, that coupled with the 'Greys' (or similar types) tend to always teleport down.

Does away with all the complicated requirements those pesky Humans demand.

Very, very cool stuff.

Jon, what I respect most about you and of Khurasan in general, is that you "make the stuff". All of it.

Out of curiosity, just how tall is it? I have a couple of foot-tall or so kaiju that could use an alien walker to beat on.

Even in its squatting position (as shown here) it's a foot tall, so I think the beating might go the other way!

Originally I had hoped for around $100 plus some sort of allocation of shipping charges to cover the excess from what my preset PayPal freight fees are, but I've since discovered that the caster is charging me separately for the legs, so I think the starting price will have to be about $130.

If this has ever been me, a thousand apologies to you or whomever I misled. I'm generally clear about being enthusiastic about a design but not promising to buy immediately, but I do slip up.
