  1. I'm willing to bet 95% of these purchased NEVER leave fighter mode...I can say with 100% certainty my Yamato V2 Angel Bird never has...
  2. @blackconvoy_D01 - Crickets....
  3. Mehh...Easy pass for me, already have my customized Yamato V2 Angelbird in the display. That new logo is bit gawdy for my taste. Maybe if it was HM-R I would bite. Oh well, $$$ saved.
  4. See......that's what I always thought too!!! City was in the center section of the ship with parts that perhaps extended into the legs that we were never shown in the original show.
  5. The fruits of my labors today....more bits and bots and my first ever go at anchor chain! Turned out pretty good! Bow is pretty much ready other than some rigging lines....uhhgg.
  6. I ummm...need like a squadron of those STAT!
  7. THIS x 1000!!!
  8. Ok, I'm gonna say it...that's freakin gorgeous!!!
  9. Yes they were, I remember Yamato Ver2's brand new for $80. Good Times.
  10. @Tking22 Do TNG, then DS9 1000%. Voyager...I mean sure, why not, it's not terrible, and sometimes pretty fun. Enterprise was just getting good when it got cancelled. It's not everyone's cup of tea, for ummm...reasons, but give it a shot. Scott Bakula does pull off a good captain honestly, and there are other good points as well, Jeffrey Combs who plays in DS9 for example is outstanding in Enterprise as well playing Shran. Disco???...well....Everyone has to make that decision for themselves.... Season 1 was doaaable...kinda, just KNOW that it's NOTHING like past Treks. Season 2 apparently is/was the high point, I didn't ever finish it however, so I can't confirm, and pretty much everyone says 3 was horrible.
  11. @wm cheng -Yeh...LOL...I don't have an answer to any of that! Haha! But, I'm not scared to try some experimentation out sometime in the future on the 1/72 kit! We'll see how things go eventually! Maybe you can learn from the mistakes I'm 10000% sure to make!
  12. @wm cheng Jumpwind paints reviewed by Barbotos Rex over the weekend... These golds and iron colors have me wanting to try them out as either a base coat OR a very light top coat on the F-22 models! Reasonably priced as well!
  13. That's awesome! Looks like your brother is having a great time!
  14. @Urashiman Sure - I'll do that later on today after work. Did you ever build the old Testors 1:48 T-38 Talon? I remember I built that as a teenager with no skills and it was a horrible kit!
  15. Good tips! In other news... @Urashiman inspired me to do this! Less than $13 shipped! Never built a Hobby Boss kit, but this will be a fun, quick (hopefully) after Titanic build before the Raptor.
  16. ALWAYS loved the 30 second interaction between Q and Guinan in "Q-Who". REALLY wished they would have given us more on THAT little footnote somewhere in a later season of TNG. Kind of wonder why they never did honestly, would have made a great one or two part episode. Perhaps leading up to the Borg destroying Guinan's planet...perhaps Q was in some way responsible?
  17. I've had my tickets for W.O.K. for months now. Taking wife who has never seen it along with father in law and brother in law who are big Trekkers..
  18. whatever happened to the one where the little guys mouth dropped like 6 inches down on the screen because he was so shocked? That one was my old favorite.
  19. PRO TIP that I wish I had known about an hour ago......When hand brushing Mr. Metal Primer onto a PE fret, DO NOT lay the fret on a piece of anything that you don't want the PE fret to be ATTACHED to! The damn primer dries quick and basically before I knew it had almost glued it to the damn cardboard sheet that came in the package with the PE. I managed to get it off but ruined some of the PE parts in the process...mind you this is the 2nd set of $20+ PE railings I have paid for...NEXT TIME I will definitely spend a little more $$$ and get the spray can of the Metal Primer and go that route....
  20. @Slave IV In bot mode I think they are just about darn near perfect, alt mode is mehh, but at this scale, I'm ok with that. I will mostly have these in robot mode anyway. Don't overpay for them, but quality wise they are great little figs!
