Monarch Kit Build-up by Tim Thompson
|
I received an email from Scott McKillop at Monarch with images of a proposed Moon Suit kit (above). Unfortunately I can't find the email, but later (September 13, 2013) I received a progress report on the Moon Suit kit - slated for a late 2014 release that I luckily posted as an update on the MMM Facebook group. Photos from the post below - note the base and art both show a Luna 2 Soviet probe, which is new since photos were first shown (the original box also showed a photo of Allyn Hazard instead of this art)...

Scott appeared at several shows with mock-ups of the kit and box, where you would see this banner.

For those of you who've been following, Monarch is for the most part a one man show, with Scott McKillop occasionally taking time to develop these great, Aurora-inspired creations. This kit, which has been in the works for over 10 years, finally made it into production in 2024. Hurray!
On July 1, 2023 Rob Mattison posted these images of a Styrene test shot on the "Friends Who Like Monarch Models Co., Inc." Facebook group:
