Will this be a straight build and paint plan? Or will you be adding a few touches? Very cool. - Today

Test fitting the IMAI Gerwalk while finishing up the M.Lover Lieea. I don’t know why but I love these old kits soooo much. The detailing and fit is interesting I suppose, but they are so endearing. The price is right and it’s fun putting lipstick on a pig. Not sure if that’s the right expression?

"He-Man and Masters of the Universe" Film by Sony

I guess it’s another He Man in our world. I guess they didn’t learn their lesson -
Maybe by underdeveloped countries, but I can’t think of a first world example

Indeed, but not by a large enough force to conclusively lock down every single potential entrance and exit as we've seen in real world examples. As far as the Empire is concerned, it's peacetime. At this point in Star Wars history, the Rebel Alliance doesn't exist yet. The Empire has yet to encounter a Rebel movement that's large and well-organized enough to present a real military threat to its control of the galaxy. Up until now, they've only really encountered independent rebel cells of squad or at best platoon size that carry out nuisance attacks on lightly defended Imperial ships and bases. The game changes when Mon Mothma declares the founding of the Rebel Alliance after reaching Dantooine, but even then the Empire doesn't truly start taking the Rebellion seriously as a threat until the destruction of the first Death Star.

Love the updates! Your project is looking great. 👍

Even a senate in peacetime is guarded. And it really didn’t seem like peacetime with all the rebel threats going around.

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post

That’s hot! -
They do have security at the entrances. We see it in the episode. They have rows of some kind of metal detector equivalent and security personnel checking IDs at the building's entrances. What they don't have is loads of armed guards on the grounds. Why would they? Like Cassian noted back in season one, the Empire is so arrogant and so self-satisfied that they never even consider possibilities like this. The Empire's whole schtick is presenting a picture of stability and safety. That the new government has everything under control. The Senate we see in Andor is the very picture of a government building in peacetime. They have security at the doors and at key points to keep the public out of areas that they're not meant to access, but it's all kept deliberately low key to project a sense of confidence and control. If the halls of the Imperial capital aren't a supremely safe place, the Empire's public image as a "safe and secure society" is at risk. Putting a huge number of soldiers in or around the building at all times to lock it down on a moment's notice would be a very visible contradiction in the Empire's messaging to the galaxy. Proactively preventing threats to maintain that air of control is the ISB's job, but as we saw they're as overconfident as any other Imperial bureau and dropped the ball.

It's still listed on D4Toys, but the actual shipping cost will probably be a mystery until you get the bill. https://www.d4toys.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1275

But does the guy in the black jacket still do the spin..?

And that would be the perfect reason to upgrade security. If they don’t have security at each entrance, then that’s just poor writing all around.
