Any new Pictures of the Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea Seaview model been posted lately?

You do realize this doesn't belong in Movies For Modelers, right....?

Moving it to where it belongs.

Could you make that thread title longer and more precise, please?

;)

^^I think he's referring to the Lubliner Seaview. :confused:

Is that a sub?

^^Yes, but it hasn't come out yet. It's due out next year, I think. :confused:

Last time I did and all I got was "Seaview" motel pics posted. Blame the comedians on here.

That would be because you placed it in the wrong forum and folks here like to be... a bit on the somewhat mean-spirited-by-in-a-good-natured-sorta-way side... when people do stuff like that. Movies For Modelers is about Movies, not models and always has been. Models are best talked about either here or over at The Modeling Forum. So, you sorta open yourself up to that sort of ribbing from folks here when you post in the totally wrong forum. You've been here long enough you should know that by now. ;)

This is what I like about this place, even if I don't manage to post that often... :-)

What is this thread about? I know it has something to do with Moebius and Seaview. It seems like you left a word out. Are you looking for images by any chance?

If that's the case, maybe it does belong in a modeling forum. :confused:

No, but I have seen some good pictures of the Voyager.

Which one? 1 or 2?

They all look the same!

That is until they fall through a black hole, land on a machine planet and become the one and only...


V'GER!

Admiral, I'm going to try and help you out. Not sure how many of you are MySpace members, or would even want to be, but we do have a MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/moebiusmodels.

Updated today with Seaview test shot photos, and finished Conan sculpt photos! Worst thing is, I think you have to be a member to see them. If you're not a member, there are plenty of great people on there like the aforementioned Shawn Nagle. And Thomas Kuntz. You'll find someone you know.

If someone wants to copy them here, I have no problem with it, just a lack of time. Thanks!

Hello Frank

I had to sign in to see the pics. So I did.... It looks nice, but like you said that color is awful to make up the detail and the crispness of the molding.

I like the idea of the 2 part fins with the groove for lights. The parts fit on pic #3 looks real good. I really hope to see that in person soon but even more than that, I am craving for your Chariot and Pod...

The impatient Gaétan

I love the Conan kit!

Cult

WOW!!!!!


I just checked out your"Myspace"Pics of the Seaview Frank. FANTASTIC! GREAT!COOL!

I am really chomping at the bit for this Frank!!

High Regards,
BEATLEPAUL

Somebody please copy the files. I do not want to be a part of the "myspace" craze.

for those of you not on My Space

Steve, thanks so much, for posting the photos!

The Seaview is going to be awesome, and Conan, looks great in that classic pose!

Re the Seaview pics:

She's looking better all the time! The pattern designers did their homework on this one. I like the way the upper rear fins and the hull section between them are molded in one piece to ensure the correct angle and to eliminate the usual fragile glue joint where the fins attach. And the positive fit of the rear fins/exhaust tubes into recessed areas on the lower hull. And the interior is just, well, awesome!

Oh, boy — this is gonna be great!

Thanks Steve :)

Oh, the little Aurora stand for FS-1 is wonderful!!

My work bench is screaming Feed ME Feed Me! Thanks for the pics!
I think it will get pretty quiet around here when this beauty finally hits
the shelves!! :woohoo:

From the looks of things it won't be until the 2nd quarter of 2008 before release. :(

Tooling is finished. This will leave China in January, should be here at the latest mid-February.

OH! That is so cool. I am really looking forward to this kit. Finally, a large size Seaview that the average shmoe (myself) can afford.

Thanks for the info Frank.

Am I not seeing the vents on the engine pods?Alexander

looks fantastic

This is the worst thing about having test shot photos posted away from the original text. We had stated that the color takes most of the detail out of the pieces. Vents are there, you just can't see them due to the plastic color and the small size of the photos.

Frank, your pictures look just fine & i for one am glad to see them. Your Seaview is simply outstanding and i want to say again, THANK YOU Frank, for making, having a 39 inch seaview a reality. Thanks for all you are doing, it is MUCH appreciated.
Bert

^What he said!

Ditto Frank, thanks. Looking forward to this great looking kit. Great job.
Rogue :thumbsup:

Thanks Frank,you are doing a wonderful job with this project.I'll shut up now.Alexander

I thought Conan was going to look like Arnold Schwarzenegger :confused:

:jest: Just kidding!

VERY cool pose and sculpt! I really like the fact that a femme was included in the kit. She adds a lot of motivation to the dynamic pose, IMHO. ;)

The pieces of the Seaview are looking fantastic as well! I can see that there is a lot of room for adding lights and other details. A straight OOB build should yield excellent results as well. :thumbsup:

Frank - Awesome Seaview pics!! I can't wait!

But! - I'm gonna have big problem with mine though. My five year old just loves my little resin Flying Sub that came with the resin aftermarket conversion kit for my Polar Lights Seaview. When he sees that neat little Flying Sub - he's gonna freak! And swipe it!!!!

I don't suppose you have any plans to sell the Flying Sub as a separate "mini kit"?

Huzz

Well, we'll see what next year brings, but it wouldn't surprise me to see a limited run of the 3 small ships in the kit...

Hey!

That would be cool! I know you can't make commitments of course, but I hope that the business case says "yes"!

Cheers!

Huzz

Howdy Frank.

Any chance you could give us a hint or two about your upcomming Irwin Allen kits???? Love the Seaview, Looking forward to the Chariot and Space Pod.....C'Mon just a little hint..Please???????

That would be pretty cool. If it does happen you can put me in for a few of those.

Remember, it's just a prototype, so it may be revised for any corrections in this next round of fixes, but....

Oh it's the Space Pod! I'm so looking forward to all these cool models!!

:woohoo: AT LAST!!! Enjoyable Irwin Allen builds that even a novice could build and not screw up! I am thoroughly enjoying my Voyager build at the moment, and can hardly wait for those two Seaview kits I've ordered to sail into my Post Office!
Thanks again, Frank! :roll:

That Space Pod is going to be such a fun kit to build and light. And, yeah, it's about time!

Oh heck yeah, anyone going to make a miniature fusion core for this one? :-)

Bigger is better, for Irwin Allen models. Just like he was bigger than life!

Yes...Yes...Yes!!!! My vote is for a big Spindrift and FS-1, bigger than the
nice Lunar kits!! Frank, you've got a customer for life here! :wave:

Hello Frank

Great to see the progress and I love what I see ..... I am always in for a 1/24, 24'' Spindrift..... That would be fantastic......
