Robotech Defenders Robotech Factory

As far as I know, the Robotech Factories were never reboxed or reissued. (Unless you count the U.S. releases reboxes.) I have a partially-built Armored Battloid Module Factory in my stash. I saw the huge Factory (on this page) on a store shelf exactly ONE time in my entire life... and never again. It is exceedingly rare. My goal is to scratchbuild a lookalike sometime before I leave this world, wish me luck!

Update: So apparently Bandai reissued this a couple of times (as recent as 2012, from what I can tell) as the Macross Armored Factory. New box, same contents. There's also what appears to be a re-named/knock off version called "1/100 Armored Factory Super Space-Time Fortress McRoss." Look those up on Ebay. There are also original Revell kits for sale, at eye-wateringly expensive prices! I scored a McRoss kit for a more reasonable sum, should be at my doorstep in a couple weeks! In-box review to follow...

2nd update: It finally arrived and I'm pleasantly surprised: the "McRoss" factory is simply the Bandai reissue in the same box! (Not sure why the fancy rename in the Ebay product listing.) Took a good 30 mins to pore over the sprues: its the exact same kit as the 1984 Revell release, but Macross branded now. They even included some lengths of chain for the overhead cranes! This thing is so cool, I'm overjoyed to finally own one! Direct yourself over to Ebay and get one before prices skyrocket...
