    @Dobber No problem at all!! @peter And at that size, it better be grooved plastic.

    I can see them having it set in some treaty about the number of ships that would be wave-motion gun capable. Like the Washington Naval Treaty's cap on battleships per nation. Gatlantis certainly showed that the tech is needed, but Earth showed that it needs to be controlled.

    Oh damn! Pre-senior moment!! Thanks for not making fun of me.

    No, not watching anymore. Give me the movie!
  5. Thom
    Nice.

    So, we have a 2205 film coming out before the 2202 series..?

    Well, people rarely do intelligent things... And yes, in all reality the correct reaction to the dinos dying would have been, 'oh well, that's sad. But we can make new ones!' But then again, that was the decision that was made. It wasn't they who let the dinos out, it was the child, and she made a childish decision. I can see in the next movie, if they haven't been vilified merely for being there, that they should be involved, maybe indirectly, in catching as many dinos as possible. And I imagine any predators in particular...

    I wouldn't mind a few moments with Marion.

    The later types of both planes do have similar lines, what with the lowered back and the bubble canopy. You can be forgiven! As for the Grissom-build, I didn't bother with those edge decals either. Far too fiddly for me.

    Wow, they went all out on that! Any size you can imagine, catered to already.

    No, Mk XVI XIV (14) Spitfire. It's Airfix's new-tool in the Civilian Schemes boxing. An alright molding, but with problems I don't think a new-mold should have. If I build another Race 80, it'll be with the Academy kit.

    I think they're just considered as different classes to explain away the size differences between appearances. Like maybe the full size design was so good that they made a smaller version for more specialized roles.

    @peter Some real nice painting on all of your builds! Nice. And this is Race 80.

    I didn't go, but at the R2 table at Wonderfest, among the 1/48 Hawk, the 1/1000 Voyager, the CAD image of the AMT 1/72 Razor Crest - there was also pics of the prototype 1/350 Grissom. About 13 inches long. And I'll say that the Grissom would not be my first choice if I was buying 1/350 Star Trek ships. But... Looking at it there, I am very tempted, esp if they can keep the price around the $50 mark that I've heard about. I'll being buying one,

    Dangy double-posty!

    @peter That little Grissom could be a good learning experience before you get the new 1/350! Did a little more work on Race 80. The AK Extreme Metal came in the mail and I hit the back with the dark aluminum. And a little look through the paint supply awarded me with Tamiya XF-8 Flat Blue as a good match for the prop cone and the trim around the canopy.

    Is that a real production shot, or were they just testing lighting and such? The main reason, is I hope he loses the beard. That's too John Wick. And if it's not a production shot and they're just testing things out, then that would give them time to lose the beard and trim Moss up. And I don't say that to be derogatory. We all age, and in different ways, and unless you're Tom Cruise, with a new action movie out every year, some things are going to start to slide. Given the time, there's nothing stopping her from doing a 'Sarah Connor.'

    I'm guessing this is a weekly series?
  19. Thom
    No. Just no. I mean, why/ Why?! No, Just nononononononononononon...

    hAhA!! This is a time for mondo SIL points!! Maybe see if you can schedule some In-Law Build Dates, to see if he wants to partake, and you can show him how awesome a modeler you are.

    Haunting of Bly Manor.

    @arbit I don't know, some guys like the ladies a little thicc. But for serious, I can hardly see the difference.

    I think that's just an action figure. Do you see the stand holding it up?

    Well, we do know that the New United Nations came about after several decades following SW1, as the Earth government became more decentralized in order to deal with the wider, spreading population among the stars. So changing the government to the NUNS just after the Unification War, rather than happening sometime after SW1 would be a retcon. The story itself would remain exactly the same though but for that, as it would be more to get around HG's continued strangle-hold on Robotech Macross by removing the visuals and whatnot they have trade-marked. But that is probably just pie-in-the-sky thinking, as I'm sure there's a lot more to it than just some trade-marked visuals... Heck, I would just love a reason for them to just redo the animation!
