  1. Roger Ebert & Gene Siskel are now reunited. Two thumbs up too you sir, RIP.
  2. Amazing work of Art!!!!!!!!!!!
  3. Crusader, Crusader, Crusader!!!
  4. Unless I'm totally wrong (I might be) I remember seeing release dates as far back as October 2012 & January 2013. Even the Hobby shop I've done business with for years now was surprised it was available yet. But I'll be patient, if its as detailed as the BSG & Vipers, I'll be happy!
  5. The phrase its a Catch 22 is pretty much the undertone of this series, being evil & manipulative (Psycho) like the Governor is over the top.... on the other hand its Kill or be Killed, as far as Carl is viewing it even as just a young man, I'd rather go to sleep at night and keeping on living versus being Dead, especially when you consider the people of Woodbury were just there to kill you. And yeah Beth, at least a kiss for the boy!
  6. YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!
  7. Seriously, someone needs to make a VF-1D upgrade kit for the 1/48's! I know the Capt. made these but unless hes making more (Probably not) some else get cracking on it. Too damn awesome not to have one, every collection should!
  8. That is one sexy bird!! Colors, attention to detail and the pilot look amazing, great job!!
  9. I got lucky finding an Orange that almost matches my VT-1/VF-1D, just slightly brighter but that beige is a spot on match (Thank you EXO) As for the Steel Pots in the background, those are soon to be painted orders for my customers. Pathfinder, 506th, MP's and Medics.
  10. Thanks MT, I'll post more pictures in the morning, I think I'm pretty much finished with the outer body of the plane. Still parts to finish and then of course decals & clear coat. Pony Toy Go Round was at least a 4-5 times a year visit for me, good excuse for some great food, the museums & shopping (Cute girls down there too ) I do remember that 1/200 Monster (If anyone has a pic of it, post it), I used to drool over that thing, the stuffed animal section used to drive my cousin crazy, she'd go nuts for the huge Totoro's. We played it smart at just parked in the Yohan parking garage, it was pricey but at least you felt a bit safer. One of the posters I bought down there years & years ago was by artist Ken-ichi Sonoda "Fuse Box" man I'd love to have that one again. All those Macross, Mobile Suit & PATLABOR kits stacked high, truly a sight! Sounds like you came through skid-row before getting to Little Tokyo, pretty dodgy in that area.
  11. That is awesome, and please post some Helmet pics!!
  12. LMAO!!!
  13. I thought it was upside down too at one point, sadly its a "quality" Monogram kit and that nosecone is off a bit (Bad mold). The next time I make a F-14 kit I'm spending the extra $$$ and getting a Hasegawa kit. I tried to straighten it out a little bit so its not as droopy.
  14. Time to stop test fitting and start gluing her together, plus putty and touch up. Metal Landing gear, resin tires & resin Drop tanks as well are also being prepped.
  15. Thanks everyone, thats a 1/48 scale Tommy next to a 1/60 VT-1. @MT Your son has excellent taste, then again he takes after dear old Dad with a 6ft Daedalus in the house, if I had a tiny Pacifico or Blue Moon beer bottle I would put in the RIO's hand.
  16. I have a long way to go, but heres the beginning of my VT-1/VF-1D inspired Macross Tomcat.
  17. Yep I noticed the rims went from Pimp to Ghetto back to pimp!!
  18. Same here, lots of Blackhawks, Chinooks & KC-130's. The Occasional F-16, F-18 & A-10 Warthogs fly over too. The Joys of being near Ft. Riley & Forbes Airfield.
  19. I like this trailer better, I'll go see it. Won't be exactly like the book but a hell of a good time!!
