Yarm6 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Hi Everybody! Does anyone know where to get a 1/32 scale ACMI (TACTS I beleive?) pod? I can't seem to find any. I know people were talking of TwoMikes, but I can't seem to get to their website. I can't find anyone that makes one or sells one for this scavle. I was just thinking of scratch building it. It should be fairly easy, but if there is a nicer one for sale, that would be beneficial. Thanks in advance! Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Harold Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 http://www.amsresin.com/all_links.html I can make one for you. I want to build up a bit of an inventory before I send to Sprue Bros. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geronimo Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Hi Harold, i am although interested with an ACMI pod, but on 1/48 scale, did you have it on your schedule ? Thank you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Harold Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Hi Harold, i am although interested with an ACMI pod, but on 1/48 scale, did you have it on your schedule ? Thank you. I would have to make a master for it. I know there a few kits that have them available.I might find one and use it as a base. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yarm6 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hi Harold, That would be great. Are you planning on sending them to Sprue Bros for sale after you build up your inventory? Do you have an idea on when this would be? I don't need one right this second, so I could wait till Sprue Bros have them. If it's going to be a long time, how do I go about buying a 1/32 acmi pod from you? Thanks! Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Hi Harold In 1/48 it already exists. There are two in the Hasegawa Aircraft Weapons Set: D. If I lend you one from that set would you be able to use that to scale it up to 1/32nd? I would be interested in one in that scale for a Skyhawk I am planning. The Hasegawa one looks very nice with some nice fine detail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SR10user Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 There was a white metal ACMI pod included in the Adversary boxing of Hasagawa's 1/32 A-4E. Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blue73 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Hi Harold, I'll be interested in buying a couple of them in 1/32. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Harold Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 There was a white metal ACMI pod included in the Adversary boxing of Hasagawa's 1/32 A-4E. Dave I have never seen that one. I need to look it up. Thanks, Harold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Harold Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I have to build up a small inventory for Sprue. Maybe in another two weeks or so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have three different "noses" for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Hi Harold Ok I can get them in the snail mail for you tomorrow morning. I can send both so you can double up the moulds. Could you PM me the snail mail address? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just hope that this pod will be accurate for a french Jaguar A which participate at a Red Flag exercise in 1992. Best Regards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hi Harold Ok got the pods packaged up. I doubled up the cardboard reinforcement as well as putting it in a cardboard mailer. They look pretty delicate with the pointy part already moulded on the nose. Should be in the mail today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yarm6 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Share Posted March 26, 2014 Excellent Harold! A few weeks is perfect. I'll keep checking at Sprue Bros. I have one of your AMA pods and it's great. Can't wait for the ACMI! Thanks! Dave I have to build up a small inventory for Sprue. Maybe in another two weeks or so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
