  1. Nurse outfit? Lol! I can sort of see in an insane asylum orderly type of way. Honestly though? My first instinct was either 80s BreakDancer or Russian mobster. 😆
  2. Thanks for the kind words. I'm not going to lie, the last few years have been rough, but things really feel like like they turned a corner. Anyways the castle came in the mail yesterday with the Blacktron cruiser and I'm going to start work on it over the weekend. The box is massive. Like 38 inch old school tv big! I can't wait to crack it open! In the meantime I just happened to be in Barnes & Noble today and picked up the Medieval Blacksmith Ideas set as well. Lol! I think I have a problem.🤣
  3. Well I did it. I bought the big damn Lego Lion Knight's Castle and got the blacktron cruiser as a free gift... I have mixed feelings on the purchase as $400 is a huge chunk of money. Lego castle stuff is a sore spot for me as my room mate and his girlfriend stole all the castle sets I had when he refused to pay rent and I was forced to sell the house we all had lived in. Five years later, a move out west to be closer to family, a newer better job that pays well, a new year, and some convincing from my brother and his wife to finally do something for myself... Well here I am.
  4. Yeah, they removed old Indy from when the series was released on dvd dating back to 2007. This was before Disney purchased Lucasfilm or Crystal Skull even existed for those wondering.
  5. The Cobi bricks Corsair. Well one of the four historical variants they've released to this point.
  6. They both look ugly and chunky compared to the Cobi Bricks Corsairs.
  7. My brother just told me. I feel sick.
  8. More like the road to hell is paved with good intentions. When you look into the backstory of this film and what it's based on you start to wonder how this film even got green lit in the first place. Let me put it this way, there is a damn good reason Lupita Nyong'o who played Nakia in Black Panther turned down the lead role and withdrew from the project after she did her own research into what the Kingdom of Dahomey was. It gets worse when you see reviews give it 8/10 for cinematography and acting, while grading it a 4/10 for historical accuracy. The studio got so much backlash they've stopped marketing it as "based on a true story" and labeled it as "alternate historical fiction".
  9. If anyone needs a brush up on the rules and lines of succesion, here you go...
  10. Oh he did! He just has terrible luck. After the B-17 flight the next day he was getting ready to head home when the alternator blew on his truck. Good thing he's also a mechanic! Anyways he starting uploading video of his flights to youtube if you want an idea what a flight on a warbird is like.
  11. My brother after two years of waiting finally got his warbird flight on the B-25J Mitchell "Maid In The Shade" yesterday. I bought him the ticket to fly two years ago, but it got cancelled due to bad weather, then covid happened and cancelled the tour for the next year. Sorry to post his ugly mug, but you just can't replace that look of pure joy of an older guy getting in touch with his inner child. The real kicker once the flight ended a photographer friend of his that also took the B-25 flight experience bought my brother a ticket for today on the B-17G Sentimental Journey that accompanies the B-25 on it's tour.
  12. Anybody else notice the "darkstar" is essentially a more angular version of the old "F-19 Stealth" that had a bunch of kits and toys made of it back in the 80s and 90s?
  13. That's kind of what happened with the original film. Lucasfilm wanted to do Lord Of The Rings, but couldn't get the rights so they did Willow instead. My only hope is they don't base this series on the abysmal Shadow Moon sequel books.
  14. You want a good historical setting for a Predator film? New Guinea 1942.
  15. By the books description he is 72 years old that looks like he is in his mid 30s due to the effects of spice treatments. By Villeneuves' standards that doesn't really matter give that Chani is supposed to be a scrawny half starved sixteen year old redhead with milky pale white skin from living underground all her life, because in Fremen society exposing any skin to direct sunlight is a major taboo and a waste of water which is why stilsuits are essentially head to toe gimp suits. Meh given how good the first movie was I have faith in the casting.
  16. He did it all for the nookie.
  17. The gundam releases this year are kinda boring, but the other lines like the 30 Minute Missions or 30 Miniute Sisters are pretty creative.
  18. Seeing those pictures of the Blue Gale from Xabungle reminds me of when I was a kid. I had a knockoff toy of it that oddly enough had decals from Macross on it. The hatch parts on the legs had a green sticker with the kite symbol on it with text that said SDF-1 Macross. I remember you could transform it into the truck mode and it had a pull back function that let it role across the floor. Unfortunately it was very brittle plastic and it broke easily, never mind all the small part like the hands were on small pegs that would either not hold the part or snap off easily.
  19. Um.... What in the bluest of blue hells is that? Char's GM?
