      Hideout - guess you are not on Social Security, as many of us inveterate, old-timer kit builders and collectors are. BTW - you could have saved 40% if you had not rushed into this.

    Besides all the negativity (want for a better word) about what ww2 germany could do or not do, your venture into scale modelling with this first kit is, well, out of this world, Kudos to you and good luck with future products :).

  • @chiefton52
    @chiefton52 Před 7 lety +8

    Bravo, but I would have added one more option to it. Since they operated on magnetic flux flow using Red Mercury I would have added the inner working of that engine as well to explain how it worked. Plus the Stators would also need to be added as well. But over-all you have come very close to an actual craft and I like that detail. So bravo again.

    • @scottfw7169

    • @chiefton52
      @chiefton52 Před 7 lety +2

      Even thou that is a great idea Scott FW I was just passing on the idea of possibly doing that by the makers of this fine object of historically not yet completely proven fact. .

    • @parrot0051
      @parrot0051 Před 7 lety

      As this whole story was conceived in the 1930's as a pulp science fiction story it has progressed into a conspiracy theory that has been widely accepted as authentic, the Nazis NEVER had any technical know how to even construct any such craft even if they had a crashed UFO as a guide. If the Nazis did have this technology they would have won the war without any doubt. Real UFO's are being seen worldwide by police and millions of witnesses usually large triangles with three white lights and a single red light in the center, Squadron should make a real UFO of a triangle like witnesses have seen in the 1989 to 1990 the Belgium Wave not fiction.

    • @scottfw7169
      @scottfw7169 Před 7 lety +4

      I'm reluctant to assume things of that nature, "If the Nazis did have this technology they would have won the war without any doubt." Because having a technology and being able to employ it effectively in enough quantity in the right places at the right time are a number of different things.

    fantastic. first problem in my mind to solve is the make the weathering pool on the bottom of those underside turrets. That seems unique to modeling, as in the first time that has ever been a thing. +1

  • @songmoshan
    @songmoshan Před 6 lety +1

    That looks like at least as good of a kit as the Korean brand snaptite I bought a few years ago. I like the ramp and landing gear. Mine has an open-exposure option to show off the drive-powering capacitor ring. Ah yes: I took some STS 4D NASA 1/72 nd scale space shuttle crew and put them into my Hanebu II crew flight con-cabin. Along with a blue LED on the TESLA coil stack. Then also built a 1/72nd scale VRIL-7 Semjase saucer with red LED to go with them. And my own hybrid design (same scale), same technology, but a domed triangle-delta.

    Thanks Jeff for the very detailed vids for both the regular and the civilian version. I ordered both and am looking forward to build them.
    Do I detect a Dutch tong with you?
    Making tje complete build video's shows the love you guys have for you craft!!!
    One minor complaint I have is the lack of figures to man the Saucer. That would have been really awesome

    @williamhayden7711 Před 7 lety +3

    Oh yeah and it will get fiber and lots of lustful winky blinky LED's. Nice job Squadron. Off to see if I can actually afford one. I do hope it's not priced in the "collectible" range. That box has me worried. Someone on our forum already has one. It's going to generate quite a conspiracy.

    • @williamhayden7711
      @williamhayden7711 Před 7 lety +2

      $80 list, not bad Squadron! Not bad at all. You guys are off to a great start. I hope you push full force into this. It looks like you did your homework and market studies.

  • @saltof1
    @saltof1 Před 7 lety +2

    love it! but how did the pilots and crew got to the cabin? no visible floor hatch?

    • @SquadronMMD
      @SquadronMMD  Před 7 lety

      They enter through a sliding door located at the top of the ramp housing. As designed, it's flush and sealed (invisible). If you want to make the lines visible for weathering purposes, you can use a scribe tool to outline the door opposite of the ramp housing.

    • @SquadronMMD
      @SquadronMMD  Před 7 lety +1

      Hi Stephen,
      We only have the 1/72nd scale detailed on this video.

    • @garywilliam7091
      @garywilliam7091 Před 6 lety

      Yo Stephen - right, plus you could also add an extra room to your house. Or you could hang it, like I did with my Monogram 1/72 B-36.

  • @ScaleModelAlberta
    @ScaleModelAlberta Před 7 lety +9

    No figures? It needs some pilots.

    • @scottfw7169
      @scottfw7169 Před 7 lety +1

      Yep. Kits seem incomplete without crews.

    • @williamhayden7711
      @williamhayden7711 Před 7 lety

      There are tons of 1/72 German figure sets. Officers, Infrantry, Pilots. Lots and lots to choose from and pretty inexpensive in the grand scheme of things.

    • @garywilliam7091
      @garywilliam7091 Před 6 lety

      William - couple things - yes, we know there are a lot of 1/72 figures, vehicles and other accoutrements available but I still look for included figures, be it an AFV, plane, etc. kit - what with all the kits I have, I can afford to be choosy; same goes for AFVs with individual track links - I have 'way too many individual link tank kits that I would love to build, but the links are much too time consuming to even build one (think I will simply put all them on eBay). Also, $80 bucks for this over-hyped kit is too pricey - what's the purpose for the extra box sleeve (other than make the kit look more glamorous and appeal to the hoi polloi - K.I.S.S. and lower the price AND include figures and then watch sales take off!). Obviously sales are poor because Squadron is already selling it at 40% off (and I will only buy two, for now). Comments - gwetoyking@yahoo.com. Cheers, Gary.

    • @SquadronMMD

      We only made a 1/72 scale version. A 1/32nd scale version would be about 31.5 inches wide.

  • @Holyganker
    @Holyganker Před 7 lety +1

    During this time, Germany was destructive and genocidal, thus positively not permitted to posses a working understanding of this technology. It's certainly true that they researched it, (but from false assumptions and theories). They were eons away from a working prototype. Today, Germany, like most of the participating countries, are part of a much larger cooperation with regard extra planetary affairs. They never built beyond a small scale experimental unit, as they could never get their efforts to function as hoped, or at all. Attractive model though.

    • @williamhayden7711
      @williamhayden7711 Před 7 lety

      Nobody is close to a creating a true flying saucer even 70+ years later. Oh there have been attempts. To make it work we have to overcome gravity, but this is just rambling. The Haunebu's purpose was propaganda and in that it would've be awesome in the most sinister way. To me the Haunebu is one of the greatest pieces of evidence that totally debunks the Roswell retards that think aliens crash landed and that we or holding them hostage in the desert. It makes for great scifi, but it's totally ridiculous.
