I started training Marissa on painting these last week (still tied up with Elvira). I'll be hoping to have full time help on these to make ~5 a week if possible (also hoping to reduce production time as the process becomes more familiar/streamlined for us). A set currently takes ~16 hours to make (not counting print time). ***Pricing is planned to be $650 + shipping***. I'm as excited as everyone else to see the reveal video I'm always impressed with the effort Zach puts into his content. The list will open in the thread here at 8:30PM EST (June 30th).Īs noted above, Zach wasn't given fair warning to meet that deadline, but he went above (to infinity?) and beyond to make it happen (currently in the editing stages). The reveal will be on June 30th (on the SDTM Youtube channel). I may not have mentioned previously that there's a trail of blood that follows the ball paths, as well as parts of the railings. Seemed fitting regardless for a post-opened-gate version in a more ravaged lab. I had experimented with other paint schemes, including as it's seen in the show, but it looked out of place that way. Glass is fully intact, and you can see inside the tank when lit. One note on the deprivation tank, is that the coloring is a more aged/ruined version, largely metal in appearance, with some remnants of white paint showing to give the idea that it was worn down to the metal (hand wheel on top is still colored similar to the show). I look forward to when everyone can see the rest of the set. I'm behind where I'd like to be all around, so I need the extra time regardless ahead of reveal. Holding off until all details are known will help create a more reliable list.įor clarity, I posted the teaser clip (and reveal estimate) before asking Zach if he'd like to do the reveal/install video, so while June 30 is the target if possible, it's only fair to allow Zach to get to it whenever it's convenient, especially with the TS4 release and getting him his set later than I hoped (I reworked many pieces of the set after the teaser and was sick for about ten days, which slowed me down). It can be difficult to get through a list via PM if many don't respond (usually not the case, but ~50% for TMNT when taken too early). Please remind me after reveal to get on the list. Pricing will be a chunk less than AMH or the full RZ set, but hoping to get a small run complete soon to have a better idea of where I need to be on them. Some chance I'll add one more piece to the set in the future, but it wouldn't be for the initial release if it does happen (for the left ramp loop space I avoided this time around where many have other mods). Zach got his set in a couple days ago, and I'd prefer to let him have the chance to reveal the rest when feasible (I got the set to him later than I hoped). I got all of your Rob Zombie Mods and some others. Though there is a small monster/demo element.Īny new updates. Some had asked me to include Demogorgans and such in the set, but that was an IP barrier I didn't want to cross. The Deprivation Tank itself was based off of several sources (including watching slo-mo scenes more times than I could guess ), and while not 100% to the show, as that wouldn't have looked right or fit properly in the game, it does have several very faithful elements, and the glass isn't 3D printed. Though those may block some of the laser path (not a huge element as it can be hard to see with the other game lights at times, but a bit of added metaphor/story connection to the set). Those that have the popular left ramp loop mods (arcade machine, spinning signs, light wall, etc.) should be able to keep them there if they want, as I didn't take up that space. The set is entirely based off of the scene/room Eleven opens the gate in. The left side platforms, Deprivation Tank, and camera/laser are all one fully assembled piece.ĭespite the size, installation is super easy. That back wall itself is only 6.5mm thick, which made for a challenge in creating the gate effect, but it was important to me to keep it slim for a nice appearance. The back-right assembly that the teaser shows most of is about 11" wide, 5.5" tall and 9" long (nearly 20" long once attached to the rest of the right side). Past experience showed me that most prefer to buy full sets anyway, which helped make this a cohesive set from the start, and as this one is larger assemblies rather than individual pieces, it will only be offered as a full set.
