Need a Suggestion for a Missing Part...
« on: February 21, 2013, 08:56:13 PM »
Hi All!

I recently found an Unseen Marauder in an ancient box of my miniatures. It's in great shape except I can't find the "top" gun for it. I was hoping one of you would have an idea of how I could manufacture a replacement, or perhaps use another part to complete the Mech as a variant or something?

Thanks for looking,

- Max

Welcome to the boards Maxie!

Is it plastic or metal?

Hi!  :)

It's a metal one, from 1994 I believe.

If you have an Unseen shadow Hawk or the SHD-1R Primitive shadow Hawk, those guns should work.

for a little fun you could try to mod some SRM 6 packs on either side of the torso and say it is an MAD-4X Marauder from XTRO Succession Wars.

my Missile launcher idea will need green stuff, sculpting tools, talent (or baring that paitence) and a knack for abstraction.  there really is not a single part that could fit on the old tadpoles body to make a good SRM 6 pack on either torso.

Yeah, I could probably pull off something, but I dunno how good of a -4X I could pull off, y'know? With only *1* Unseen available, I'll probably use that Shadow Hawk autocannon. It's a neat idea though! :)
