  1. I actually have a second kit minus the light kit and bought some after market parts for it including a refit-ish bridge module meant for the old TOS 1/650 kit that, size-wise, fits pretty well. Just need to get around to building it. Plan on painting it more like the Refit though. Chris
  2. Sweet builds Peter! Chris
  3. The 1/1000 kit is definitely worth it if I am say so. 41A0F83C-A838-4202-B1BE-F7BF5B9635C5.MOV
  4. Can’t tell yet. Still no pics of fighter. I does look like it uses some form of faux canopy or at least a portion of one as you can see some amber clear plastic under/behind the bot head. Chris
  5. Even at 1/350 it’s still going to be pretty small. R2 used the lower end of the size estimate. Like what was discussed over at SSM, I “PERSONALLY” won’t view this one as 1/350. Maybe more like 1/500-1/650. Chris
  6. Agree with you guys, but I have a sneaky suspicion that alt mode will not look too great. The legs look pretty thick from the side in bot mode which will totally screw up the lines of an F-15. Will likely still have the protruding “boobs” in fighter mode too like the Make Toys version. That was the one thing from the early MP versions that was ingenious IMO that 3P versions unfortunately disregarded. Chris
  7. In Grissom news…. at Wonderfest last weekend, R2 announced a 1/350 Grissom kit! Chris Edit: whoops serves me right for not checking the previous page, @Thom already showed this. Sorry Thom.
  8. CG cape I take it? Body suit looks better too. Chris
  9. Agreed, I too PO’d it a while back and am impressed with how it’s turning out. I’m also eagerly awaiting to see how the Flanker turns out! Chris
  10. ShowZ has updated photo’s of TFC’s next in the real world CS line the Z-10 attack helicopter. Looks like they are nearing the final prototype phase as this looks like a full transformable sample. Impressive. More here: https://showzstore.com/tfc-toys-cs-02-zhi-10_p2780.html Chris
  11. The C’s mold is actually pretty good. I think it is slightly more accurate than the 1/1400 AMT kit for the E-C and not the later Yamaguchi style refit. It’s biggest problem is a pretty bad paint job....particularly the secondary hull. Chris
  12. Thanks lol, My a/c has been out for the past week so it got me to spend more time in my basement to escape the heat and finish it off. Chris edit: just saw a building error that I’m going to have to fix on the top of the hull.
  13. Finally finished this monster! It’s so cool! Chris
  14. There is so much I love about Star Wars....this simple scene is an example. Thanks for sharing. Chris
  15. Yo....that is awesome! Cavill is the man! Chris
  16. Just want to say that just because someone doesn’t want woke messaging in their entertainment constantly doesn’t mean they want or would make them “Hard Right”. Unfortunately, that’s just what people keep getting told it means or take it as though. Chris
  17. That damn box got me for a second!
  18. Oh man, I was hoping that was real. Chris
  19. Yeah, there is something special about an aircraft kept how it was when it served. Like the P-51D “Upupa Epops” Not just a P-51 painted like a Warbird but the ACTUAL aircraft restored to its War time appearance. I just LOVE THE 353rd FG’s colors. Very cool. Chris
  20. In the movie when Eddie was expecting Venom to be all bad ass, didn’t Venom say compared to other symbiots he was the equivalent of Eddie to other humans...basically calling himself a loser? I remember laughing at that revelation. It was towards the end of the movie before the final confrontation. Chris
  21. Looks trippy, I like it. Chris
  22. Funny thing is, as big a fan of Star Wars I am, I somehow missed the whole KoTR train. With my “canon structure” theory, just to be clear, I wasn’t implying they can’t use what was established in other media. Just that they don’t HAVE to be beholden to it is all. Chris
