Back now with a LM question

Hi all,

This is my first visit back for a while after getting fed up with all
that was happening here (I hope its quietened down now )

Anyway back to business, does anyone have a good set of detailed
dimensions for the Lunar Module ? I want to (try to) make some scale
models from scratch, probably in 1/6 scale to match my Dragon models
astronaut.

I know Realspace do a plan set but I cant really stretch to a total of $40
to get them in the UK. Unless someone in the UK already has a set and is
willing to sell them on ?

Cheers all............Adam

That's one pretty big model!

There are some card models available online, I don't have the URL's right
now but they shouldn't be hard to find.

Lol, I dont plan on making a full LM. Just the fwd and mid section of the
interior !

Cheers.........Adam

Major Matt Mason! Yes indeed, had all the coolest accesories,
including the diving suit (maybe the coolest doll, er, action figure
accessory ever), and the crawler thingy. All in the Richmond KY,
landfill somewhere.

Last time I saw Major Mason, he had wires sticking out of his elbows.

Tragically we now have the technology to repair all those old Matt's
and Sgt. Storms with broken wires and missing paint. As I kid, I gave
them up as lost as soon as an arm wire broke (a leg wire could be
tolerated for a while) and all of mine are long gone.

These days, I've got a couple of the "Leadworks" Matt Mason knock-offs
from Japan, a nice space station (with an extra level, and that
incorporates at least some of the parts from my original), a space
crawler, and a few odd accessories. I compensate by owning probably a
couple dozen 1/6th scale astronauts (GI Joe, Action Man, and others,
though not, unfortunately, a Dragon "Buzz" or "Buck").

We can even match the paint and cover-up where the kid wrote ANDY on the
sole of the foot!
