StonedMason2112 Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Hello, I am another humble collector looking to buy a Sand Tarakava Prototype Replica.The Sand Tarakava was a set planned to be released, but never made it passed the prototype stage. Simply put, I don't have any of the pieces necessary to build one for myself. If you own a replica, or have all the pieces needed to complete one, please help! I've provided helpful pictures I've found, along with a few links to some online instructions below. Please offer a set that matches the provided instructions, and please message me privately to discuss.Thank you :-)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYZ-WIjROCchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMwsMt2QB0shttp://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=554735 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchavoya Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 (edited) In my opinion, if you don't mind doing a little work, you're better off building it yourself. There's plenty of YouTube videos that start with a shot of all the pieces you'll need (the majority of the work was to focus on this shot and make a list of all the pieces you need). I've seen people sell sand tarakava for around $80-90. Ordering the pieces on Bricklink and building it myself cost me $40... Edit: Honestly, if you don't mind paying someone else for labor, it doesn't seem too bad. However, for me it was too high. Like I said, I made a wanted list in bricklink of all the pieces I'd need, hit find all from least sellers, and ordered. Saving money meant more to me. Edit 2: If you did want to go the do-it-yourself route, some of the pieces are hard to determine stuff like length. I'd be happy to answer questions for you.

Flintsmith Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 You should try to talk to Munty. He put together some sets and, here's the thing, printed up some official instruction sets. He sold the sets, but maybe he'd sell a set of instructions. 1 Quote How I make metal masks. Trans-purple Kaukau Olda . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
