    There is a reason behind it but it is left as a mystery for the gamer to partially piece together bit by bit. Those that don't do much exploring or reading of texts/computers left behind won't get much of an explanation. Those that do will be able to come to their own reasonable assumption and go "ah, that's probably why" even though it is not explicitly explained. I feel the show does touch on enough of that for the watcher to make some assumptions of why culture didn't progress. While we don't see much, if any, of it in modern society it's not like it's without precedent in human history. Not much cultural growth occurred during the dark ages. I don't think it's much of a spoiler to say it was a form of control for bad people doing bad things.

    Throw in some fusion core batteries, WMD's, and crt green screens and it's dead on 😄

    Just to clarify, the bombs did drop in 2077. It's just that the country's culture was frozen/stagnated in the 1950's. So while technology continued to progress everything else (from clothing styles, automobile and building aesthetics, tv, music, values good and bad, etc...) remained unchanged.

    It's not necessary at all. I've only played Fallout 4 which takes place on the other side of the country so I didn't have any background information with this particular location. There might be a few easter eggs or inside jokes you miss but overall it's pretty easy to follow along. Have fun watching it. It's a 'blast'.

    Oh you're no fun If you are still getting 4 kits then what else are you going to do with the all those extras in your parts bin. May as well have a laugh at some of the ridiculousness in this show.

    Looking at the picture from Ted I kinda (ok, more than kinda) want the one with bunny ears :D. Pretty sure I'll modify one of the extra heads as a swap out to do just that.

    I've claimed 2 spots. It'll be a chunk of change with everything else that seems to be hitting my account at the moment but there's no way I am missing this!

    A little but not much. Life and illness have slowed me down. I'm hoping to pick it back up in the next week or so.

    Received the MEPToys Invid scout over the weekend. I was very pleasantly surprised. It does have some loose fit joints as MEP indicated but they were no where as loose as I was expecting. Just use a little of your favorite joint filler (kiki, glue, nail polish, etc...) and they are good to go. Such a fun piece, and great price, I immediately went out and ordered another so I can have one in each mode.

    Thanks! Yeah I figured a ride/space armor should have more of a leather/rubber rather than fabric suit. This one I am pretty sure is vinyl with fabric backing. It fits perfectly on the base body (if I didn't know better I would think it was made for it) and I am pleasantly surprised by how thin and flexible it is. I thought it would hinder articulation and was willing to make the sacrifice for the appearance but no sacrifice needed. I have no idea what the longevity of the material will be but I doubt replacements will be hard to come by. Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/294917757024

    Finally got the body suit in. I'm still waiting on some upgrade parts so I'm in a bit of a holding pattern. Hopefully I won't have to wait too long as I have been having a lot of fun on this project.

    I have decided to go with a heavily weathered and worn scheme with this figure. End of a long road sort of vibe. To that end I have started on the base metal that will be seen through all of the paint chipping. I've been binging the RoboCop TV series on Amazon so was inspired to try my hand at a simplified version of his armor scheme (only purple and blue; no green and pink). I didn't want to go all out since it will barely be seen in the end. The bicep and thigh armor are done, As a comparison, the chest is the bare metal color before the filter colors were added. I'm not super happy with the brand I used for the purple paint. The color is fine but it was pretty much impossible to get it to blend smoothly. If I wasn't going to be covering it all up I would have redone it with my normal brand.

    Wasteland companion perk unlocked! Still waiting on those road leathers.

    I totally understand. I figured the bike, even if it was solid, would be a long shot anyway. Having this in hand now it's just too good not to have something to accompany it. I'll keep my hopes up that a female rider may come to light some day. In the meantime maybe I'll try to scratch build some of the cycle cargo containers , supplies, and weapons. I've got your 1/12 set that I can use for inspiration :).

    Aww man that sucks. So I assume the odds of a companion piece like a bike or female rider are also zero?
