marauder wave 6?
- Thread starter thecorporation
- Start date
I'd be interested to compare apples to apples in this case. I'm hoping that we can eventually convince him to do the tactical FAL, though.
I'm also hoping that these concerns will be addressed. The size of the 417 was tolerable, but that AK... Eek. It fits in better with my Zakus than my Blueshirts.
Well, from the talk I had with him, I think those issues are going to be better addressed. I don't think we'll ever get true 1:18 scale but we'll get a lot more tolerable scales.
His old AK-47, despite having a cartoony textured wooden stock, works fine despite being a tad on the large side.
That's good to hear then. Say what you will about the product, but you can't fault MJ on the customer service end. I can't say I've met very many shop owners with the same dedication he has.
I keep meaning to talk to him about getting hold of some of those wood furniture AKs with the removable mags. It always slips my mind, however.

"FO6" Rifle. Looks to be based on the 416C.
Do. Want. NOW.
I see Marauder made the same mistake I did and did not extend the grip.
Please try and post and discuss Series 7 updates here:

I personally don't have a problem with it because it's hidden behind the hand for the most part. I just know it annoys some people. I think it might make the gun less stable in the hand, though I've never tested that out.
Yeah, I've had those sculpts for a while. Give me a painted wave 7 set and we'll talk.
Man, I love Marauders they make quality stuff and provide such a need in the market. I just wish they would now focus on web gear and other real life high-speed equipment.
Have they always been that expensive?...I've bought other sets and I don't recall them being $25...I don't remember them being more than $10...but I do have a horrible memory...
I think that's just because they are painted.
Just ordered a Type 95.... anyone have some pics of it in hand?

It is. I want to say they said it doubled the cost.
Mmorelock, stolen from around the net:
95 looks to be a good purchase. But that damn FOS? Naaah.
I do like the series 7 ACR slated for release though.

A few more weeks for the new stuff...
Hey "312 Gunners!"
To recap, we lost our original factory appointment in August due to the tools not being finished. The tools arrived at the factory 2 (two) days AFTER our scheduled appointment and have been sitting there waiting to be used. We attempted to get a 2nd production appointment at the factory, but due to the "peak" Christmas production time AND that we failed to provide the required minimum 3 month advance notice, our project was given an END OF NOVEMBER appointment. Needless to say, we worked like CRAZY to get that date improved. Countless calls, hundreds of emails, offering to take "anything" that could produced (as opposed to everything at once)...even "exploring" the "bribe" option.So after much stress and expense, we are able to FINALLY announce we're scheduled to receive the matte black versions of the kickstarter items within the next 2 weeks. We'll need a few days to organize & prepare the matte black item orders and then will ship the items TO YOU!
In the kickstarter survey we asked how to handle items that are available at different times, most respondents said to "hold everything, and ship in 1 package." BUT we are going to ship ALL black versions that were ordered FIRST. After your INCREDIBLE patience and AMAZING support, we do NOT want our kickstarter supporters to see the "new" items from the kickstarter event available and being shipped to others...while they wait patiently for their package to arrive with ALL their items (black & other versions). The other versions of the kickstarter items are due 2 to 3 weeks after the black versions arrive (as with the black versions, we are pushing to get that avail date improved). Will notify those that ordered those sets when they are ready to ship.
Again, THANK YOU for your support and we HOPE you like the items!

It does look a little cartoony like a lot of the new guns Hasbro has been making. A few of their other guns in this wave are pretty nice though. The MP7 and Skorpian are must haves for me.
