Roden is going to have a new release!!

Just released, 1/48th Scale model of Stephen Lawson. Yes, that's right, anatomically correct. Based on all the diagrams he might look a little odd in shape but that may be due to prototype diagrams drawn by his parents.....

Anyone else having problems and praise for the limited run Stephen Lawson model please post.

The rib spacing is incorrect, nothing that can't be put right with an angle grinder.

The gun seems smaller than expected and appears to fire in a somewhat downward angle than the earlier model. The rumor of a cannon armed lean machine was all pre release hype!

There is also a Ginger kit coming. The markings for this one will ONLY be that of the German version.

The PeterL model is to be done in resin. But they will only make one of these to be only sold at a Spanish seaside resort.

I have the Stephen Lawson kit. There is no rigging diagram. The decals just shatter as soon as you apply them to him. I was going to paint him in dullcoate but I then saw that thats how he came. hehehehehehe Also mine is a pre-release version and i got 3 of them.
