Has anyone here at HM ever seen these scale model machines?
My question is what material were these miniatures made of?
Recasting the whole set would be a great project imho.

Edit: These scale models are out there:
Now that would be a really cool winter project! Probably easy enough with a 3D printer... Would love to figure out a way to do it with metal casting though!

Use a 3D printer to make patterns. Make silicon mold around patterns. Remove patterns, fill silicon mold with wax. Remove wax patterns to use in ceramic shell/lost wax casting process to make metal models. (My friend is an artist and does this.)
With scaling in a 3D printger you can even account for the shrinkage of the metal in the final process.
