After over a year in the making, I finally got the missiles made by professional plastic injection process. Hopefully this image will come through. They are really sweet!

Awesome job Derik! I don't think anyone has tried to make repro popy missiles with any success until now. PM me for the price because I could definitely use some!!

Congrats Derik, that is super cool. You did a great job with the resin ones, but this is awesome. Now, if we had access to a blow molding machine and some castings

These are professionally molded by plastic injection. Before I was casting, machining, and polishing. - gummie missiles! What a great idea! - I think Iasco makes a blow molder

I believe you can adjust that PM notification setting in your profile Settings tab. Also, when you bookmark a thread, a notification pops (a Number bubble) up alerting you that someone has responded to/Liked a post in the bookmarked thread. You also get notifications if other RJers are following you throughout this forum. Your bookmarked threads are saved in your profile area for quick access to them. zozo-mag You can email me at shogunplastics@gmail.com if you like. is there any way to have PM's on RJ alert you when they come in?

Got in my 14 piece missile set today. They are quite impressive. Beautiful job on these Derik!! HUGE thumbs up and thank you on the work you did to get these made. Everyone, you need to hold some of these in your hands. They are really nice. I love the silky smooth feel of the missile vanes

I just got my two sets today they look really good. Good quality. Are the originals blow molded? They seem to be a softer more flexible plastic. I really like the looks of these and will order more as needed. Thanks Derik.

Normally the original ones were harder, injected molded as well for the most part. The ones from Uni-Five seemed softer though.

So I think I got the shop store on the Shogun Plastics Facebook page working. So far I have put a few different sets on it. They are a bit cheaper there than my eBay auctions. I am also working on a website to showcase some of the parts I offer, and hope to be finished with that soon
