                        Wanted: Batteries not included Kits
                        Posted by Batmania1966 on Friday, October 13, 2006 6:47 PM

                        I was wondering if anyone knows where to find any of the flying saucer kits from the movie Batteries Not Included?

                        thanks.

                        Here are some pics in case you are wondering what im talking about.

                        There used to be a garage kit(resin) of one of them, manufacturer escapes me. You might try Evil-bay, but I haven't seen any lately. You could also inquire over at Starship Modeler.

                        They do pop up from time to time on Ebay. I would keep an eye out for them there.

                        Sorry, I can't recall. I do believe it was a Japanese company though.

                        So i have found out that this movie was called "Miracle on 8th Street" in other countries. So i would imagine these kits may have been listed as that.

                        I saw one of these built up at a contest some years ago, and IIRC there was an openable panel on that kit.....very unusual subject.

                         

                        Good luck and happy holidays!

                        Just purchased this kit on ebay. It has all five of the ships, apparently they are extremely tiny...Im getting warmer though.
