Ghost in the Shell
Posted by Scorn on Wednesday, December 8, 2004 4:21 AM
Anyone have any ideas on where i could find a Tachikoma kit from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex?

Or even some scale drawings or schematics. I would be willing to try to scratchbuild one of these.

Thanks people.

Good luck getting hold of one, the Kit was made by Alpha/Vice a few years ago, don't think they sell it anymore.

Guess you are talking about this kit:

The kit was a 1/16 resin kit, there is a chance that the Alpha/Vice shop in Koenji/Tokyo might have a copy left. I am planning on going there in a few days to check what they got left.
You can join the end of the list of people that asked me to get them one, Numero uno on the list of course is ME. Big Smile [:D]

Not too sure what the kit actually sells for, but I am prepared to fork out $150~$250 for an original.

Actually this is what he is looking for, We have found toys of this but were more interested in finding a kit for it.

AFAIK, there was never a kit done of that mecha, actually the total number of kits from GITS I think is below 10.

Happens quiet often when an anime takes off after it's original showing, same happened with Votoms, Jin Roh, etc.

Been to a few 2nd-hand bookshops and checked if I could find any decent images realting to that specific mecha, but alas NOTHING.

Very little left on GITS by the looks of it, but got plenty of other good books are very low prices.

Got some good original sketches of another light tank though.
