Picked up a grail of mine. I’ve always liked this jet - it’s like an F-16 and an F-18 went and had a baby. Not too many were made, and none will be made again. By Hobby Master.

Where did you get it?  I'm looking for one as well, but prices for these have been too high for my wallet.

I agree! Too many scales out there to not to have at least one.  :D

It's a must have, one of the few I would never sell. :lol:

Green with envy. Still not for me. :p

To be fair, it looks good, @505thAirborne. ;)

Bought from a member of Model Hangar 3 fora.

I'm green with envy too!  The last 1/48 DYRL I'm missing.  Tired of waiting for one to pop up so picked up a cheap sunburnt red Hikaru, whitened with peroxide and repainted it (forgot to paint the red arrows on the head):

Would still love to pick up a legit one if anyone here wants to let theirs go (hint hint) ... ;)

Pretty good haul this week. Will post up tomorrow. Please no one else sell me anything for say at least 6 months. 

Let me guess... More hard to aquire valks that you financed part your mortgage to aquire it. :blink:

Edit: I'm trying thin out my various hobbies that I have presently (and I believe that others can say the same when trying to stream line their own collection as well).

Money is tight for me these days but I would break the bank in an instant for A-ko figures! :D

The Megaroad colony ship just found a habitable yet inhospitable planet, and they may have found more than they bargained for after a crew of Zentradi explorers checked out an alien, derelict spaceship on the surface.  Several of them returned with a strange parasite attached to their face.  What could this mean?  :unsure:

After several days, the parasites died, and their Zentradi hosts seemed fine.  Then a few hours later, all hell broke loose in the medical bay.  With the power out and no one responding on the comm, a crew of valkyries were sent in to investigate.

They found some sort of casing as if something had gestated inside and clawed its way out.  There also seemed to be some sort of slime slewn across the room and dripping from the ceiling in places.

They finally got the lights back on and...

 

 

 

...found some new creatures relaxing and having fun with their pet!  "Hey guys, could you turn the lights back off?  It's hard on our eyes."

Spoiler

Seriously tho, these NECA Alien toys are freakin awesome! (well, that is until I snapped an arm off of a stiff joint)  From left to right these are the original "big chap"; a concept xenomorph from Aliens before they decided to take off the smooth, translucent dome; and the dog alien from the third movie.  I decided to limit the impact on my wallet by just getting the special alien from each movie (not a fan of AvP tho).  I've got a neomorph from Covenant and the Queen from Aliens on the way.  BBTS had a preorder for the newborn and Ripley (plus another xeno) from Resurection.  I don't want to collect the figures, but clone Ripley was the real "Alien" from that movie cuz she was part alien, and the newborn was kinda lame.  So the only one I'm missing is the "Deacon" engineer alien from the ending of Prometheus, but for some reason he is damn expensive!

Make no mistake; @borgified and I have a great deal in common, including our tastes in anime, sci-fi, toys and action figures.  :drinks:

However, we have fundamentally different ideas of what constitutes a "diorama."  :huh:

Are you using the Wave hangar sets? Or something else? Been looking into some kind of hangar diorama parts but not sure what would work well or even be big enough for 1/60 stuff.

Damn, that TRON figure looks like it stepped right outta the movie screen!  What do you estimate the scale to be?

7” scale.

Looks good. Are you getting the Sark as well?

Yeah.  I’m probably going to use my rewards and get it for free.

Woot! Next build is here!

New Purchase 04/18/2019

 

That is a wonderful kit! The build is fun, parts separation is top-notch, and it’s really solid and fun to pose. It doesn’t have any off the issues that Exia has, namely the ankles.

It’s my plan to hold off in the hopes that the new GN frame they made makes it way into a new Exia, in addition to the rest of the Fab Four’s Gundams.
