Kraken XR - Love at first site

[0700]

Really like the depth on this sculpt, huge thanks to Catalyst and IWM.  8)

Now get working on that stupid scorpion lam  ;D

Only 2 cons I can find:
1. Going to be a pain to attach to base.
2. Sculptor really dropped the ball molding the LRMs right onto the torso, now you have to cut them off to make other variants. Heck, want to charge more for a model, throw in a second set of arms to make the base Kraken. But I digress, he's big and beautiful [drool]

[0700]

Very deep "CAV" style

[0700]

You're going to need some larger bases 99-201 at least maybe 99-202

[Weirdo]

Murphy's Purple Dice Sans Pants, that thing is awesome!  [drool]

The only mod I forsee having to do would be to use some stiffened paper to sharpen up the front of the torso, but that's minor at best.

Already pondering how to best convert one into a Bane 3... 8)

Wow! If that thing'll fit reasonably on a hex base, it might be my favorite Kraken sculpt to date, by a large margin.

It does sound like converting it will be painful, but it may well be worth it.

[Col.Hengist]

Is this a new sculpt?

[scatcat]

I like it. That's gotta be my favorite non modded Kraken to date.

0700, how deep is it front to back? I'm curious how deep a foam tray this bad boy'll require.

[Weirdo]

Is this a new sculpt?

Yup. It's from XTRO: Clans.

[Daishi411]

sweeet! i've been waiting to see pictures before i buy one, and now I have no choice!

[Col.Hengist]

Nice. Svartalfa still isn't out yet though I see.

Nice. Svartalfa still isn't out yet though I see.

That's a online exclusive item and they come out when done and can be fix into the mold room schedule.

[Col.Hengist]

I thought we payed for it before the society proto that came out a few weeks ago though.

[Weirdo]

Mighta been harder to sculpt, leading to it taking longer.

[Col.Hengist]

I apologize for overtaking this thread about this beautiful mini. It's just a small sticking point for me. This thing is really beautiful.

Without knowing the sculptor,
a) I dont' know how hard having additional pieces makes the moulding
b) At least they're going to be easy to remove with a razor saw - nice straight cut with the raised 'pedastel'

I'm thinking of getting some MWDA JES III's - their missile packs are paired LRM-15s. Two replacing the SLRMs, two on the arms - instant Bane III ! O0

Or it was assigned at the same time and just settled at the back of the sculptor's queue for that batch of work, leading to the Boggart being done at a time that it could be sent to IWM alongside other work that was for regular distribution prior to the completion of the Svart.

1.5" depth

[Ryumyo]

I like it. O0
Might have to get one or two.

[I am Belch II]

That's pretty awesome!

[TS_Hawk]

I like that one alot

[scatcat]

1.5" depth

cool beans. Thanks.

[Wrangler]

Thats really kool.  I could use it as a sub for the unseen Kraken/Bane.

[Fidel Cashflow]

Very nice, hope they are online soon.

[Trajan Helmer]

Sold. Still, I might mod it with a bigger, more defined large laser.
