    Thanks guys, I use micro set and sol so if I understand you it should be safe to use right out of the bottle. Count me in for a set of these as well. Chris

    @Anasazi37 I am an experienced model builder but am curious how you apply your decals to these toys. Are they water slide? Do they need a gloss coat to be applied to the surface first like is done in modeling? Just want to know what the process is for these. Thanks. Chris

    Agreed, me too Chris

    I hate when I watch YouTube videos that play a clip of the video you are about to watch at the beginning of the video. As in a clip from 3 mins into the video is shown at the beginning before their little intro theme thingy. So annoying to me. Chris

    Good god that MiG-21 is GORGEOUS! Such a fabulous build. Chris

    Yeah that’s been going on for at least 6-7 years now. Chris

    All this talk about the gun pod handle and such and the one that came with my VF-4A doesn’t fit on the Valk at all. The handle is too wide to fit into the slot. Did I miss something? Chris

    I love their videos Chris

    Wow that looks great! I’m always too intimidated to try a custom as I don’t have a brick stock pile and I’m not sure how to go about buying what is needed to make these gorgeous models. Like I mentioned above, I’d love to get the B5 Agamemnon, but don’t know if the sites that sell it are really just scams. Fantastic work. Chris

    Love the design but those main landing gear need to be longer or something. The wing tips are practically touch the ground. Imagine trying to land that thing! Chris

    I’ve had my eye on that EAS Agamemnon for over a year now but I’m always apprehensive about ordering from one of those 3rd party sites that sell it. Chris

    Damn! No this is some LOW flying....This SLUF is in the slush.

    Oh cool! The artwork didn’t look like it was going to do the scale pattern. I may get this now. Chris

    Ahsoka and not Cara...yeah that’s not deliberate or anything. Chris

    Julie was the person that was trying to kill them when they were trapped in the slow zone. Haven’t started this season yet as I’m waiting for it all to be out so I can binge it. I’ve read all the books so I know what the gist of this story is. I agree about the Naomi stuff. She’s just not that interesting of a character to me and remember wanting to move on from her stuff during this arc, but it is integral to the overall story. Also not a fan of belters, politically speaking, so it’s a really hard story to get through for me. Chris

    Totally agree, Been saying she’d be a great young Leia for a few years now. Chris

    Is HLJ able to ship when things are available? Is it only Expensive UPS/DHL or Ferry options? Just a little gunshy with Japan thanks to N-Y. Chris

    My comment about Worf’s statement wasn’t as a critique about Worf not explaining things to outsiders but rather as a dismissal about something that in all reality should be common knowledge. Not the details, mind you, but just the fact that they did look different for some reason. Along with both O’brian and Bashir not even knowing or having, apparently, never even hearing about different looking Klingons is HIGHLY unlikely. As for societal feelings/attitudes of Klingons, I agree with what you point out, but for me it actually makes the premise I’m talking about even more far fetched. If there is such a strong bias and stigma in their society, and as you point out there is indeed, then why would they be given positions of such power and authority? Such as Fleet captains and governorships. Kor, Kang, and Koloth seemed greatly revered. If their society is so bigoted to people with their “deformities” as they are in other far less substantial situations, as you pointed out, that would require euthanization or ritual suicide ect. Then it makes little sense that these types of people would be allowed to serve, much less rise to such high levels in their service or society. Chris

    Yeah, as fun of an episode as trial and tribbleations was, it really created a whole lotta crap. Instead of just accepting Klingons were retconned in TMP and quietly thinking Klingons always looked that way, they just had to make a joke about it and call attention to the difference. Which really makes no sense either as Federation officers, especially a Chief Medical officer, would’ve been familiar with the fact that Klingons use to look different in the 23rd century. Worf’s line “we don’t discuss it with outsiders” doesn’t make much sense either as plenty of people in the Federation and elsewhere had dealings with them in the past and know they now look different. MY head cannon is that the Disco Klingons are the result of an early attempt at trying to fix the Augment virus and it went too extreme in the “cro magnon” direction. Chris

    YES!!! Thank you. That’s why I never had a problem with the conflict because TNG already vaguely referenced it. Doesn’t forgive all the other crap but the war is not the problem. Heck if anything it was too short. Chris
  24. Dobber
    Regarding the s1 Klingon war, I could swear I remember Riker, in a TNG episode, referencing how the federations first contact or earlier dealings with the Klingons was disastrous and spoke about the lives lost in the ensuing conflict, But for the life of me I can’t remember the exact quote or episode. I just remember it standing out to me when I heard it back in the day and wondered what conflict he was referring to as I remembered the Earth Romulans war so like most things about Trek I wanted to know more but never heard anything else. Anyone else remember this? Chris

    Welcome! Your model looks great. Chris
