  1. Not the best pic, but I did some work on the nose wheel well.
  2. You always overcome the odds @pengbuzz! Nice bit of saving. @derex3592 Always glad for the good paint weather. Looking good.
  3. Sounds like National Enquirer TV.
  4. Yes, this is The Flash: Bats in the Belfry!
  5. Ooh, I's got the shivers!
  6. That last part, I'm like a guy at a noodie bar hoping they take it all off!
  7. Yeah, Academy's 1/72 F-14A, though being built as a D as all the parts are present for it. Decals! The decals in that Academy kit are awesome. A little bit of Micro Sol and they bedded right down to all the details. All I did was a gray primer coat, though the screens were painted silver first with either clear smoke or clear green afterward. Your Red 5 is looking good, with a nice mod for the foils. @peter Not impressive!? Ae you kidding! I see so many straight lines! That Excelsior is looking great. @Ignacio Ocamica That is one impressive looking model. And it aint even done yet?
  8. You're saying he wanged it...
  9. Whatever happened to Wang..? That may be the mock up used for the 1983 TV series.. And seeing it like that is an awful shame! One because they should do something to make it look better, and two because someone thought putting that out there 'as is' was a smart idea. 'Yeah, just toss it out there. They'll look at anything.' (Check out the guy in the trolley. He is bored out of his mind...🤪
  10. Let's see if I can get this one past the cockpit stage...
  11. "Express elevator to Hell, going down!"
  12. And just like the movie version, the 'engine' pods on the sides are empty! Damn impressive though!
  13. Just shows that with enough power, even a brick could fly.
  14. Well worth the cheers! Gawdamn!! And just listen to that thing. @sqidd So about the same cost as the toy..? Hm, I wonder which one I would buy?😉
  15. Ended by the seller. Either he changed his mind, or he sold if off ebay.
  16. Now if it was a flying RC model...
  17. Nice seeing Adam Driver really getting out there. The other two seem to have fallen dead-stick.
  18. Actually, the Gatlanteans were introduced briefly in 2199. They were the poor shmucks Dommel was pasting before he was called off to deal with the Yamato threat. Which, in a way, makes the Yamato responsible for the threat the Gatlanteans became later? Or maybe Dommel would have ended up kicking over the Comet Empire nest sooner without the Yamato calling him off..? Hmm... For 2205 I will miss the long story arcs, but after 2202 a tighter schedule and storyline would probably be best.
  19. The cars for the Autobots looks pretty tame, actually. The only one that has any real embellishments is Bumblebee and the rest look pretty close to stock. Nothing compared to the last Bayversion of Optimus with those gawd-aweful stacks and the ugly, lurid paint scheme. I was fine with the first movie version because he looked like just a normal truck even though it wasn't a COE, but then it looked like Optimus kept going to auto truck shows and bolting on every add-on he could find like he was addicted to flash. The Decepticon ones I can forgive, cause they're Decepticons... So far the Autobots look pretty vanilla, thankfully,
  20. Recasting solves so many problems so very easily. Nowadays the show comes second and usually suffers for it. Expanse was not so bad, though they could have done his death a little better. Anvar's death just came out of nowhere. CW Batwoman was worse though. Rather than recasting RR, they made up a whole new character, dumping the entire first season in the process and making it pretty much unwatchable.
  21. Better off getting the 1/48 scale model.
  22. That looks bitchin!
  23. I have no idea what we're talking about, but it does look overdone. That was one of the problems I had with the other films, is that the cars looked they came from a teenage run car show. The kind of person who would put a five-foot tall 'spoiler' on the back of an old Ford Escort...
