That was a hit-and-miss review from the Honest Trailer folks. In other news, interesting interview with Filoni: https://deadline.com/2020/05/clone-wars-series-finale-dave-filoni-interview-ahsoka-tano-mandalorian-1202927520/

When you get too distracted and start futzing with your toys. . . Bridge Staff: Sir, we’ve got what appears to be an exponentially large Zentradi, umm, surfing off the main guns. Global: Take him out with the railguns. 501st: Oh poop.

Mog’s a Low-Down, Dirty Rotten Copy-Cat (Modded Matchbox SDF-1)
Mog replied to Mog's topic in The Workshop!
Thanks for the compliments everyone. In any case, more pics: Attack Mode with the guns up: Chest flared out: Ultra-double-top-secret GERWALK MODE!!111!!!!!! : You'll notice I haven't posted any pics in cruiser mode . . . . . . .welp, this quote came back to bite me in the ass: One of the main gun booms was floppy in cruiser mode. And the magnets I placed in the right boom didn't hold the damn structure up. Add in that you could really tell that one boom was longer than the other, and boom (pun intended), it was emergency repair time: Added magnets inside the styrene extensions to help link and connect the booms together (and use the more solid holding boom to support up the floppier boom). Trimmed the polystyrene to get the main guns to match a little closer in length. Cut down the styrene rod to help shorten the longer main gun boom. Of course, while doing all this, I tried to open up the front landing gear and wound up breaking the landing gear cover. Superglue repaired that, and I learned to always open that front gear up by pushing in the front part of the cover. I'll post pics of cruiser mode in a few days. -

I think the other issue is that Hasbro has shifted its emphasis to the 6-inch lines, trying to force that to be the collectors’ line. They already had trouble making in-scale vehicles at the old 3.75” scale, and those vehicles unfortunately had a tendency to go on sale or clearance a lot. So, I can only imagine how much more cost prohibitive it is to sell vehicles at the 6-inch scale. But again, I think Hasbro has been repeatedly dropping the ball for the past decade or so.

Hey! Don’t insult the GI Joe Weather Dominator like that! Watching those old Joe episodes, you realize now just how cheesy the show could be.

Thanks for the compliment, but I know there's far better customizers than me. My spray painting technique is still hit-and miss. There's flaws in my work that I can personally accept, but I'd probably hold myself to a higher standard when doing a custom for someone else. I'm more than happy to share what I've learned and screwed up on (shameless thread plug! ), but it's just a fun diversion for me.

How much did I pay for it? How much am I willing to sell it for? Or how much of the original is still left?

Welp, Taika Waititi has been a part of The Mandalorian, as both the IG-88-type droid and as one of the directors for an ep or two. So, he has some built-up goodwill.
