01 Lost in Space - B9 Robot - Part 01 of many
I plan to not only build this robot, but also animate as much of it as possible.
This project will be a stretch for me, but I'm up to the challenge.
Some things I plan to animate are:
* All the lights
* Torso rotation
* Voice files that will make the mouth blink to the sound
* Power pack insertion will start the animation
* Claws open and close
* Radio control of animation
* Moving feet tread
* Possiblly make the head go up-and-down
Wish me luck. It may take me the rest of my life to finish it, but wow...
what a learning experience!

    A clean workbench means you haven't started a new project yet! I am STILL waiting for the Robot model kit to come in to the Model store!

    I got this one at Burbank House of Hobby's. They seem to have everything I ever searched for, although yesterday (2/10/24) I went online to buy another one and they were sold out. I rarely buy at my local hobby shop because they are always understocked and the place is a mess. I've been buying almost everything online. I hate to do that to the local shops, but if they're not going to keep stock and keep the store clean and organized, they're biting their own nose off to spite their face.

    Thats cool, How tall is it?

    I think it should stand just over a foot tall. An unofficial source states that the original B9 stood 6'8". At 1:6 scale that would put it at just over 12".

    Aren't the Mobius kits really really expensive.

    I guess it's all relative as to what you call expensive. They are not much more than any other kit. As an example, The B9 robot is $43.99 at Burbank House of Hobby. They are out of stock at this writing. I've paid more than that for AMT or Revell cars. Prices have been going up on everything. Actually, I paid more for the Aoshima Back to the Future DeLorean's than any of the Moebius kits I've bought. The other thing about Moebius and Aoshima kits. They are high quality. I've never had any warped parts and everything fits well with very little filing and/or sanding. It's the old adage...you get what you pay for.
