    Just finished the season. Definitely picked up by episode 5 and had a strong finale. Bring on season 3. Chris

    Cool. Like I said nothing is bad just tired of them dragging their feet to tell side stories instead of just getting on with it. Watching it now....I’m actually on ep 4 now. Chris

    Ok good...I think I just finished 4 and while it’s not bad by any means I'm just a little tired of the back-story side story civil rights arc with Allison instead of getting to the main arc. Chris

    Yes they do. I have several of their Flanker family models. Chris

    Could be, but I also think if Bandai where to make a pre-order window and announced the production run will be based off of pre-order totals from that “window”, it would keep scalpers down and allow most people to order. I’d be willing to bet the production total wouldn’t be much larger, if at all, than their normal one. This way there would be little to no incentive for scalpers to buy up the supply because most people would be able to get one on their own. Chris

    Man this is how pre-orders should be. Just woke up for work....6am EST....checked the page and saw the links. Went to amazon and ordered. No muss, no fuss. Chris

    Peter, that looks fantastic! A lesser builder would’ve given up on that turd of a kit. Congrats sir! Chris

    Get pumped!!

    Some rare footage of a Tomcat doing a gun run. Also, some LOW passes!

    Me too, I asked that same thing above and a few members answered. I’m really curious to see what’s going on here and to see how it is executed. Also hope that canopy is a faux canopy for the chest as it looks NOTHING like an F-15’s canopy, particularly from the side. Chris

    I really can’t understand what’s going on with the wings. Why is there a big hinge on the leading edge of the wing? It looks as if the wing has 2 halves...almost bi-plane like. That seems...odd. I fear for how the alt mode will look. The F-15 is a great aircraft to use for a transformer, I don’t see why they can’t make a toon accurate bot while still making a good looking F-15. The previous examples have come close as did MT. Just a few tweaks and we could have the best of both worlds. Chris

    I think she looks great Peter! Congrats a truly challenging build. Hump the saucer goes on ok...that’s the last challenge! Chris

    I’d be game for it. I liked Solo. Chris

    I knew I should’ve just paid the extra $80 and have it shipped via UPS, Arrrg!

    Great job Peter! She’s really coming together. I’ll echo the sentiment to clear coat to protect the decals and then maybe lighten those strong backs a little. Otherwise outstanding work. @wm cheng great tub you got there. Can’t wait to see how this turns out. VF-1 is my favorite if you couldn’t tell from my avatar. Chris

    It doubles as a cable slicer for low level flights. Chris

    Same here

    Beautiful! Though, from what I can see in the pictures, the wing flaps are still not pinned unfortunately. Chris

    Great work Derex can’t wait to see her all finished! I too need an airbrush, I’m just weary of having to learn new things. Mainly the clean up process after each use. Seems tedious. Peter, she’s looking great too. The decals also appear to be nice and subtle. So many usually have FAR to much contrast. One of the reasons I started doing things with the pencils, I hated not knowing how the decals would look with a particular base coat. Chris

    Lol! Chris

    Actually she is his niece. Chris

    Holy Cow, Mechtech, that 5 inch Gun looks AMAZING! I just built the Nacelles, they went together fairly well. Just a little seem separation at the front. Nothing a little putty and sanding can’t fix and I was going to have to sand the whole seem any way. Chris

    Loving the Autobot cars! making progress on my Discovery Enterprise. Saucer is sealed up (forgot to take a picture of the wiring. I’m pissed I some how overlooked the registry being off center until long after it dried and set. It’s not too bad but it bugs me. Nacelles are being wired up now. Hope they fit together alright. The motor assemble was difficult and I’m worried something may be off. Can’t test fit either since the kit is almost “Snap fit” to help in light blocking. Fingers crossed. Chris

    Thank you for posting your progress on this kit for the following reasons: A) It’s great watching your progress and dedication. B) it’s a wonderful reminder to never EVER even think of getting this kit again! No matter how much I think I’ve learned or how far I may have come. This kit just sucks! Chris
  25. Dobber
    Wow, I’m impressed you are keeping up with it. It’s looking great! Chris
