DSC-304 Daedalus Model Kits. Anyone know where to get one?...

[BeardedKirk]

Hi Everybody!...


I am trying to find model kits of the Deep Space Carriers, the UK doesn't seem to have them (unless anyone knows otherwise?), so are there any out there in other countries?

And just to clarify i mean kits you build, put a lot of time & love into before finally screwing it all up with a bad paint job

Many thanks

I've never seen any, presume your thinking along the same lines as airfix or revell? they both do the little plastic ones. TBH I seriously think i'd saw my left hand off if someone gave me a model kit of a BC 303 (prometheus), puddlejumper or F302A = Left arm and as for a BC-304 kit - pick a body part!!
Really really wish someone would make some.

Yeah they don't exist as far as I know

Well, I don't know about model kits, but does anyone know if anyone makes a model of a 304, like a metal/plastic model that's pre-made? I seriously need one for my desk....

Haven't seen the 304 (been searching for quite a while...), but have seen the F302

I don't know if they sell them in stores, but there's a company called Saltyre (sp?) Technologies (I think) that does a really nice 304 model. At least, it looks nice from the pictures posted in one of the threads. Apparently, the guy who did the original casting for the mold posts on this site, from time to time, under the screen name "Bar".

If you look through the forums for a thread titled (if memory serves) "Ladies and Gentlemen... It is here!", there should be a ton of pictures of it.

Unfortunately, it looks like Saltyre is a small company, or the 304 model is something of a boutique, because it's first run of 50 or so kits sold out, and I don't know if they're doing anymore. Of course, the last time I checked was months ago, so who knows. But good luck!

And if it's any consolation, as a kid, I don't think I ever ONCE completed a paint job. You can't screw it up if you don't try!

That's what i'm talking about!!!! Excellent thank you!!!!

Wow, that's great! And they seem quite detailed. But also quite small.
If they were about 40cm long, I'd seriously envision buying both the 303 and the 304.

19.5 cm (Prometheus) & 22.25cm (Daedalus) aren't bad, could be worse, according to the scale quoted Prometheus should only be 7.8cm, but it's not. And i have one on the way! Yay!

WOW! They look great. I remember stumbling across the guy who make the master models blog a while ago, before they went into production, but couldn't find it again. It's awesome to finally see them available and in packaging lol

Thanks Jedi Master!
