    I’d stay away from metal tools since they can scratch or damage the parts when disassembling. Sometimes a piece off the sprew like the long rectangular bits with one end beveled by a quick sanding can do the trick. personally if I’m working with modern kits, I’ll often trim the peg at an angle to do test fitting so the part is far easier to pull apart, and in final assembly I’ll use a dab of cement to hold it in place permanently. I’ll attach a couple images to show a bit later

    I really don’t care for the others at all. I’m kinda thinking the non popstar version may end up a web exclusive

    I get the feeling that this show may end up only the 12 episodes. Things seem a bit rushed in the last couple episodes.

    Definitely an oddball, wonder if they’ll do the recolor as well looks like the preorder is up tomorrow at the p Bandai USA store

    I think I’d put the acolyte at the bottom then obi then boba and Ahsoka as a tie then it gets tough for me because Andor had a flawed start but got better then the second season felt a bit jumbled, Skeleton crew was kinda diminished by its ending and Mando got trashy in its last season, but those three I think overall were the best of the starwars shows.

    Not really familiar with the rules of the game, but I’d imagine that if the horseshoes go on wrong, then the horse becomes a hand grenade. Poor horse, but I guess that would be why they’d name a game horseshoes and hand grenades

    It probably would work far better on a gloss surface since the dull will make it hazy and harder to clean up. Might be better to use a panel lining pencil or pen if you don’t gloss the surface and treat each area as a panel, like around the sash or the sandals and such.

    There’s always someone that shames the necropost. At least this time you’re suggesting praise instead. I find it interesting that people can find some of these old pages and it’s better late than never

    I see what you mean, but I think those flaws might be hidden if you try a dark wash at the places where certain parts meet. Like where the sash meets the belly or where the vest meets the body or even the hair meeting the face and the sandals meeting the skin of the feet. It will add a little depth and will help hide the imperfections

    Might be a bit larger scale than the pilot figure included, but does look pretty cool standing next to the Queadluun RauI’ll have to get her in hand to do a good comparison I think. But then again I bet someone will beat me to it

    Pretty sure horse shoes have to be fairly spot on so they don’t break their legs

    I remember when 40k used to have a lot of absurd fun before it was just grim dark all the time

    I’m totally skipping it, but if you do get around to building it, make sure to put some updates in the workbench section, especially if you put in the light pac

    I don’t think everything needs to be another Andor. Skeleton Crew was almost a win. If it could’ve stuck the landing it would be in a category of better shows. The problem isn’t that things need to be more serious , just that they need some more competent writers that can tell a story and not get bogged down by their usual bad choices in the stories.

    I’ve been keeping an eye out for it and unfortunately not yet. I’m still hoping they do one because it’s the only variant that I actually want

    Definitely the front of super packs that fit on the back.

    Star Wars needs some reputation fixing. If they make more good shows and actually deliver a good few movies, even a disliked character like Rey could make a decent comeback. But trying to bring her back too soon would be a huge mistake and putting out garbage before that would be just as big of a mistake.

    I finally did it and watched Hundreds of Beavers recently. It took a bit of convincing and found a few spoiler free reviews that all said that it was the funniest movie of the year back in 2024. I really don’t remember too many funny movies from last year, so maybe it’s true, but it may have been a low bar year for comedy. Anyway Hundreds of Beavers definitely won’t be a movie for everyone. I really enjoyed it, but I like some rather absurd things. The budget is practically nothing, all the animals are played by people in furry costumes or are sewn together puppets. and the effects are all animated in. It’s also filmed in black and white and done in a way to give a classic cartoon kinda look to everything. A lot of the music I kinda recognize from other movies like the ending theme, so that was probably another way to keep things cheap. Despite its cheapness, there’s a lot of truly epic scenes. Basically it’s about a drunk that gets his life completely destroyed by beavers and left out in a cold forest and has to navigate his cartoony world and learn gradually how to survive. There’s a running gag that there is a random vendor lodge that’s kinda like something out of a video game that sells items with increasing usefulness depending on the price and the only way to get money is to bring in animals that he’s trapped. There’s a lot of trial and error that’s fun to watch because things only work by cartoony rules. He does meet a more experienced trapper that helps him out, but eventually he has to take what he’s learned and perfect it to meet his new goal of not just basic survival, but marrying the vendor’s daughter. Overall it’s a fun one with a bit of a slow start because the main character has to slowly learn the best ways to perfect his skills from being a guy with zero survival skills to becoming a professional trapper. If you’re ok with absolute absurdity and nonsensical humor, it’s a good watch, but I’d imagine that most will stay away from it after just watching the preview.

    Since that’s sorta from Gundam wing, you could try watching the show or at least a few episodes. Maybe get a little inspiration. It seems to be streaming in several spots like Hulu. As far as being not being into Gundam, I’d recommend 08th Ms Team at some point for a short watch that’s very easy to get into without the need for any background information

    I liked the last guardians of the galaxy as well as the Deadpool one. I liked the last Spider-Man movie on first watch, but rewatching it was a horrible mistake

    The first of the three really wasn’t bad, just kinda been there. The other two were jumbled messes and changing creative heads and scrapping plans for each film was a recipe for disaster

    Unfortunately that’s what they usually do

    I don’t know, just one of those I’ve never had to use.
