ECZenith Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Fellow amusement ride modelers rejoice! Faller will be releasing a working HO scale Top Scan model for 2008, this will be their most complex and expensive model to date at $460.00!
BRTeller Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Looks like I will be needing to get back out my model glue. Faller has finally came through. Yipee!
da1daonly Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 That's great news. Sorry i know its a bit off topic but i can't seem to be able to get the car on faller power tower fall.
ECZenith Posted May 3, 2008 Author Posted May 3, 2008 With the help of Faller and our "up to $600 federal refund", we can use this Top Scan model to help stimulate the economy!
Fallen Heretic Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 I always found the Faller models take alot of work to get looking good, but then no-one else really does this many carnival and theme park models. Still, looks like a cool model. If its not a nightmare to put together, it may end up on my shopping list. I just havent the time for a difficult build right now.

I wouldn't hope for it not being a nightmare. I'm pretty sure this is going to be there most difficult one yet, I've done all the past ones, except the octapuss, the new one. Hardest one for me was the coasters and the top spin. This one looks like it really going to be the hardest.
Rich_T Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 This looks like a really good kit! Does anyone have any more information about it? Any new pictures? Can you control it manually and adjust the speeds? I have never made a model before and I really want to buy this one when it comes out! Is OnTracks the cheapest shop for the UK with it being £209.76?
mcjaco Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 ^ That's my biggest gripe about the HO models. The speed on the motors is way too fast. You end up spending more money on slower turning motor. How fair is that after you drop a few hundos on one of these kits.
Rich_T Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Ok well if you lot could help me with helping me buy the new motors etc then I should be ok! I don't get the dimensions though, 250mm x 240mm x 70mm I take it the first two are the length and width of the base, but the height at 70mm? Isn't it suppose to be 170mm?
