Mammoth WIP
So this is what my recently acquired Mammoth looks like when stripped back to bare metal.
I'm missing one of the small rotary cannon and the foot-pad, both of which will have to have replacements fabricated. The large rotary cannon is a lovely example of a well sculpted/made master. Whoever made the masters for the RAFM Heavy Gear line deserves praise for doing some very nice work.
I have one question though, I've seen this model with one missile arm and one gun arm, but mine has two gun arms. Do I need to rebuild one into a missile version?

Yes, you need to find someone who's prepared to design and fabricate custom parts for you.
ReplyDeleteGosh, where would you find someone like that?
:)
We'll talk at the BBQ. I'm not sure I need your high level input for what to me looks like straightforward pieces. Now, engine back-packs, then we'd be talking.
DeleteFWIW, the back of the box (still sealed) lists only 15 parts total for the kit. Center/R/L hull, 2x shoulders, 2x cannons, lower torso, 2x lower legs, 2x feet, turret, 2x machineguns. I don't recall the rafm version ever having anything other than the arm weapons you have. If you want a probably compatible part, I'd recommend looking into plastic 40k dreadnought power fist arms as they were last I checked (admittedly a few years ago) dirt cheap on the ebay bits market and if memory serves a decent size fit.
ReplyDeleteCheers for checking that for me.
DeleteIIRC RAFM made two versions of the Mammoth, the difference was the weapons. One was called the Assault Mammoth.
