Quick Google search brings up several modeling sights that may be good to look at.
Hobby Talk, RPF, Prop Summit, Resin Illuminati, etc.

If you do plan to get it make sure to email MIM to see if they actually have it in stock.
In the past there where items I was interested in that where no longer available but they never took them down even after I contacted them about availability.

Having owned the Anubis kit, I'd say that the details felt a bit soft. The figures are so-so, and it would take a fair bit of effort to light.
The things you own end up owning you. It's only after you lose everything that you're free to do anything.

Doesn't MiM recast stuff from time to time? I swear I've heard they're sometimes above board, but they're not above recasting on certain items.

Kitzilla, you are right! Several times ago, there was a discussion about this here in the Clubhouse. And I have read that they take a lot of time to send the payed items. So, this is nothing I can understand or tolerate.
