I am always a sucker for the sci-fi fantasy models like these, the unique nose cone is what makes it, well, unique. Yeah, why not make some new kits with this nose & nozzle, kind of like the Scorpion, Lynx, and Puma, you know? Just keep 'em coming, I will keep buying 'em.

Everybody should at least build one in their lifetime!

I like the model but I think that's how long it would take me to build! |

I always that this was ugly, even though Sci-Fi models are some of my favorites. Perhaps it'll sell poorly and we'll be able to get them deeply discounted in a couple years - might be fun to build one for the E16/F15.

Kinda looks like something that would have been featured in the original Battlestar Galactica as a "Garbage Scow/Trawler" holding contaminated Solium.

Here is a pic of what I got from Christine at Estes years ago.
The second and third pic is what I did with it.

I shaped it separately and glued it on. The entire cone was made with blue foam then fiberglass/epoxy.

I found your CAD drawing in an old thread of that build and scaled down to make measurements for a cardstock 18mm powered version. Main body is 24mm with 13mm tanks. Shown here next to a MR for scale, and a couple of other cardstock builds. Thanks for sharing that, the instructions had a good top view, but your side view really showed the window well.
