You right. Both films in top 3 all time earners. Curious if the third will join or will this sequel be too soon?

Given Current Hollywood, that is pretty much the only franchise/IP that is making good on that goal...

They probably only put an initial portion of the 500 for sale which is why it was gone so quick.

That makes me question the premium price which, among other reasons, is supposed to be due to it being limited to only 500

No problem, Papa Rat! I often use a digital camera to photograph sets I think may not work, or I'll look them up online (sometimes scalemates.com has images of decal sheets for specific kits).

It means: when you have an actor who doesn't look like Kirk but looks more like Jim Carrey (and doesn't have the physicality of Kirk or his presence), canon is kind of going out the window anyways. Next up: Homey the Clown as McCoy. As to the episode:

Wow. Thanks for all the info and links. Maybe I’ll order some sheets to play with. I imagine I could scan in decal sheets from these old kits and make backups if the scans work out. You rock Pengbuzz

I updated my post with a link to one of the sites. But here it is again: https://www.bare-metal.com/experts-choice-decal-film.html Also: if you don't have photoshop, there's a version very much like it online called photopea that works the same way for designing decals (and other stuff): https://www.photopea.com/ You can load fonts into it as well, and there are a lot of places online that have free fonts to use for various projects (as long as you don't try to sell the work!). I've found many for star trek ships, macross, star wars, etc. as well as symbols and whatnot.

Actually, people do, and it is as easy as special paper! They sell blank decal paper (both clear and white blank films), and you can buy them for either inkjet or laser printer. The only drawback is that unless you have an "ALPS" printer, you cannot print white (hence the white decal film). When you print it, you do need to seal it with clearcoat (unless it's laser), and you have to cur the decals out individually, as the film is one solid sheet across the paper.

Yeah. You're probably right. It's the whole full circle to further emphasize the devastation by humans and their machines... It will be very... Cameron.

Liked the first one. Nothing memorable but well packaged. The second one so far seems like in typical sequel fashion to have multiple plots all of the place...

This brings up a question…do people print their own decals and if so is it something that requires special equipment? I have a scanner and printer if it’s as easy as using a special decal paper or something.

I think that’s a good option, but there are some cases where there isn’t another set of decals easily available. I think he was working on an older kit, so finding a replacement would also be finding the older kit again

All of what big said; I’ve had success removing decals by carefully sanding them off and doing a bit of touch ups with the airbrush and then reapplying new decals. Just take your time.
