  1. I need one. They're making an XL Terok Nor, too. 8” across.
  2. Poland cleared to buy F-35s. https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2019/09/11/poland-cleared-to-buy-f-35-fleet/
  3. It’s thought Eaglemoss took the DS9-era 36” studio model to do the XL-sior with... surprised you didn’t catch the fact the deflector array grid “paneling” was actually off-kilter... the lines should be perfectly fore-aft and port-starboard, on the XL-sior they’re offset, bisecting those cardinal directions.

    Great job with the Armored Parts review @jenius, they’re just not my cuppa tea.
  5. Gotta agree, the story is not for the wee ones. This place gets dark. Also, the voice cast is killer. It’s a who’s-who of Hollywood, and all of them are nailing their roles.
  6. Surprise indeed. I figured the Berkut would have been scrapped or sent to Monino by now.
  7. Or maybe the Japanese F-3.
  8. Yeah, they’re small hexagonal vents near the wing root on the trailing edge. They’re the best candidate.
  9. Izzat some diecast there on the feet?
  10. The Akira XL is finally - finally - up for pre-order, and damn if it doesn’t look gorgeous. https://shop.eaglemoss.com/usa/star-trek-starships/uss-thunderchild-akira-class-9-inch-xl-edition?utm_source=RedEye&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=USA_SHOP_Aug19_New_releases&utm_content=USA_SHOP_Aug19_New_releases
  11. Looks excellent. I’m honestly more excited for this than some of the Valkyries that have recently been announced.
  12. BBTS has an XL D’deridex-class Warbird on pre-order. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/100006
  13. Well, best of luck to them. Hopefully international pressure won’t be brought to bear to cancel the project, like what happened to the Arrow and TSR-2.

    You can get a Kairos from NY... for a price. https://www.nippon-yasan.com/22661-macross-delta-dx-chogokin-vf-31a-kairos-regular-limited-edition.html
  15. Hi! Can I ask a big favor, and have you make some hardpoint brackets to fit on the “shields” of the VF-31 Super Parts? Many thanks!
  16. I actually have that (for my VF-11) and I wouldn’t mind doing it if I could 1) color match the paint and 2) had a template for where they’re supposed to go. I have a request for you, Xig, but I’ll put it in your thread.
  17. The cost is too high for the execution they’re offering. Great looking planet, okay looking robot, but the folded panels making up the lower legs kill it, for me at least. They can and should come up with a more elegant solution, for that kind of cash.
  18. The Warthog flies into the ‘30’s... https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2019/08/13/a-10-re-winging-completed-will-keep-warthog-in-the-air-until-late-2030s/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=Socialflow+AIR&fbclid=IwAR2hXAVwAfU7R94JaJ_Pk9gqzJ4_MlhkrR-LJlxbWsO2iq0oGxJIbMWSZAk
  19. Awesome.
  20. Wish it came with hardpoints. I’d love to throw AAM-1s on it.

    You ever want to sell a set with brackets, you know where to find me.
  22. Yeah, but different paint. As for how and why: connections? Grace was a cyborg who’d infiltrated communications networks and was eventually defeated; perhaps she had a lot of knowledge about the 27’s construction and combat limits (since she flew one or two) and that info was uploaded at her defeat.. maybe?
