Top Gun: Maverick (Top Gun 2 is comin)
captain america replied to Ladic's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
They could always make TGIII into a prequel. Cruise can play Pete Mitchell's dad and explore his Phantom exploits with Viper over Vietnam and his final, heroic mission. The final scene of the movie could show the brand-spanking new F-14s being delivered to the navy. Epic win. -
The Official Moscato Hobby Models Thread

There have been 2 types of beam gun mounts. The original issue came with plain, cylindrical types (seen just below the lower hull) of the pic at left. I then decided to cast extra bicep parts to use as gun mounts for the next batch of kits, because they fit far better with the overall aesthetic (right). The 20th anniversary kit will have the latter, as well as the updated sensor-eye. -

Especially the cockpit. Admittedly, the endless bundles of red spaghetti (muscle fibers?) would be more of a challenge for a plastic model.

For those looking to complete their MOSPEADA collection and aren't terribly impressed with the latest Sentinel offerings, know that these kits are available again for a limited time.

Ooooh, don't tempt me!

I thought for sure the Hasegawa kit would be closer in size to mine, but given their track record, I suppose this was to be expected. The plastic kit is certainly great for the price, though it'll take a lot of work to get the aesthetics and details to faithfully match the oyster-like biological systems seen on-screen. Also, mine was made directly from Perfect Memory technical drawings, and I think I've captured the TV aesthetics and its fictional technological background, far, far better. Hasegawa, well... You know.

MHM invades Japan!! Thank you Ted for sharing this fascinating glimpse into the Japanese modelling scene. Id be curious to know how your exhibit was received by the locals. Also, at about the 1:41 mark... Did that woman in purple/blue just pick-up Norbert Gerard's head? -
Ted, can I say stupendous? Your builds are stupendous! There, I said it. Well done, ol' chap!!
-
What a great build, Kudos Mike!! I especially appreciate the scorch marks at the waist: it looks like it had taken a bad hit and had part (or all) of its upper torso replaced.

MOSPEADA Inbit Revival Part II: Gosu?
captain america replied to captain america's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Captain's log: Friday, November 17th. Almost a full week of mold-prep behind me, and the last molds are setting, just waiting to be opened. Everything went smoothly, and I can start the casting of the 1/48 King Crabs on Monday. You kow what? This King Crab kit is hands-down the best version of this mecha available, and I think it needs better box art, don't you? Let's see if @tekering can give me a hand.🤔💡
