    Missed out on Lion Voltron. I think I won’t make that mistake again. Chris
  2. Dobber
    Ah, gotcha Chris

    I’m surprised that no new 1/48 DX was announced at Winterfest. Bummer Chris

    Lol looks great! Chris

    I know right! I love how those “micro” fighters look too. Their stowage made me think of SB Yamato Chris

    USAF concept for 747 airborne aircraft carriers with “micro” fighters.

    Oooh, I like that Grimlock! I’m a Dinosaur person and really din’t Like the old school grimlock withbthe thick belly and tail drag. I really like that “more like a real T-Rex” interpretation. Chris

    Heh heh, yeah that would be something Sculpt-wise the only thing I can think that could be improved upon from the Yamato is the the ventral stabilizers. They didn’t fold down enough on the Yamato version. I doubt this will fix that error but we will see. Chris

    I may still have to bite on this. Damn if it is not gorgeous. Question for you all. I never bothered with the original release....what were the issues with it? I see some mentioning problems with the hips? Chris
  10. Dobber
    Damn that does look awesome, but nearly $400!!! Chris

    Not really seeing any improvements....sculpt-wise....over the old Yamato. Though the sculpt was pretty spot on on the Yammie. I’m guessing any improvements will be internal and joint strength? Chris

    Awe man, sorry to see this. Your heart must’ve sank when you saw that itty-bitty envelope. Chris

    I’m usually not a fan of U.S.A.F anniversary/commemorative schemes but I’m liking this one. 75th Anniversary of D-Day.

    Not necessarily, the spider-man reboot avoided it. Chris

    Also, just got shipping notices for the Bonaventure and the Mk7 Viper. Chris

    For those of you who are interested the BSG subscription is starting with the TOS Baseship at 50% off. Looks like it then starts from the beginning with the MK2 Viper and Cylon Raider. Offer ends soon.

    This shows the differences nicely. http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/articles/ambassador.htm Chris

    That’s kind of my point...the Refit was the first of the 2 in the normal starship line up. It was issue #2. The E-A was released much later (#72) and was an all new model that improved off of the original Refit release. The XL line reversed it by releasing the E-A “first”. Like you the Refit/E-A design is my favorite Enterprise too. I hope they’ll make an XL Refit that is an all new sculpt. The Defiant, TOS E, E-D, E-E, Disco E, Kobayashi Maru, E-B all are fantastic large Models. I hear Voyager is pretty nice too. Really the only flat out horrible model in the XL line is the E-A. The XL E-C is a great sculpt....the only accurate E-C out there as every other model or mini is a mix of the E-C and Yamaguchi....the only thing letting the XL E-C done is the poor secondary hull paint job.

    That would be great! I personally want them to do an Enterprise Refit with the team that did the Reliant. The E-A is a terrible model and inexcusable considering all the reference material available for it. The design deserves better and Eaglemoss can clearly do better as seen on a great many of their models. For some reason they keep screwing up the Refit/E-A design. Chris

    Personally, I think what Verhoeven did to Starship Troopers was an atrocity. Such a shame people associate that movie to the book. Chris
  22. Dobber
    Hmmm, maybe that’s what they’ll do then. I see that they are advertising the Baseship as the sign-up ship now. I wonder if it starts where you signed up at and earlier ships are up to you or if they use the advertised ship first, then go back to the start. I understand that is unreasonable for large lines like Trek, but BSG is only 6 in at the moment. I’d suggest giving them a call to find out. Chris
  23. Dobber
    They start at the beginning as far as I know. I’m 1 issue behind and just got the Baseship. I ordered the Mk7 from the shop separately as I love them and don’t want to wait for it, especially if it runs out of stock by the time it should be sent to me. If you want to skip an issue you just call them and tell them to skip a particular issue...or maybe you have to show that you already purchased said issue from the shop to be able to skip it in your subscription. I did that with the Galactica. Chris
  24. Dobber
    The Mk7 is coming next month and looks perfect! https://shop.eaglemoss.com/usa/battlestar-galactica/viper-mk-vii TOS Galactica is next after the Mk7 too Chris
  25. Dobber
    Yeah the Galactica stuff keeps selling out. I hope that’s a good sign, there are a lot subjects I would like to see done. Chris
