  1. Not watching the movie doesn't deprive of anything, as season one of Hanna is a reboot of it. The series has a lot of similar plot points, although its expands and ads its own as it goes along. Both were enjoyable, though as you would expect there were some aspects of one that I preferred more than in the other, and vise versa.
  2. You know, your mods to the base 222 kit are pretty good and I'm sure your skills have only improved since then. But however you choose to go about it, I'm also sure it'll look good!
  3. Maybe if it was a lighter shade for scale-effect it would look better.
  4. Some good shows I came across recently (though two have been out for a while already. Those two are the Umbrella Academy, A really fun romp of dysfunctional 'super heroes' as they battle more of their own personal demons as well as the coming apocalypse. Four days and counting... I recommend it! Season Two should be out shortly. The other is Hanna, Based on the movie of the same name with Saoirse Ronan, it successfully expands on the original, adding a lot sub-pllots and altering some character motivations. Esme Creed-Miles is just great as the lead, and Joel Kinnaman, whom I last saw in Altered Carbon, is a great Erik Heller. Liked him better than the movie version, though they are very similar. And of course, a stand-out villain played by Mireille Enos. Season Two comes out in under a month. And I just started watching Warrior Nun. Just a few eps in and I was a little iffy at first. It looks good, but there were some moments where it felt a little b-grade. But! The lead played by Alba Baptista is fun and quipy and carries it off well, there are a number of good twists and turns, and is has some very nicely choreographed fight scenes. Five eps in and I have to keep from binging!
  5. Great job,Pengbuzz! Looks like time has shown the error of your younger days. Also looks pretty neat in there. I wonder if you could salvage the interior and put that into a newer kit, including the removable panels from the start?
  6. I like that he has the canards moved back. May have to do that whenever I pull VF-19 box off the dusty shelf.
  7. Great looking plane, and real nice with the paint/weathering. Enough to make the lines pop but not enough to make it look dirty. Absolutely awesome and congrats on some great work! You have much to be proud of there. Also great about pushing the practical models. They should just use CG for the environments but real models for the ships and all else.
  8. I think those have been kicking around for a few years. I really hope to see more of the Aquarius and that other big Andromeda variant.
  9. Michael coming back as (an older) Batman sounds great. His are still some of my favorite Batman movies.
  10. Will be nice to see that peeking through the top coat.
  11. We chose a bad day to go golfing Bob... You should add some tiny figures holding golf clubs maybe stuck in the sand trap. Real nice looking BOP!
  12. Great work with the colors on that Fitter. Sweet.
  13. Where's Eddie and Ray when we need them..?
  14. That sounds as stupid as removing Kate Kane as the lead in the show about her as Batwoman! As said by others, prequels about him have been done! Do they not realize there is a whole EU that still exists?
  15. Have you thought of buying a Cricut? If the plastic sheet is thin enough, it may be able to do it.
  16. @Lt. Z0mBe Real cool looking AT-ST! I like the additions and the paint and weathering look great.
  17. The weapons included jump the price up too much (almost), and now it seems like they are not selling the original boxing in order to bank more.
  18. More manufactures making them the merrier! Maybe they'll even make their own VF-4 and it'll more affordable than the Wave one, seeing how I can't find their earlier boxing without the full weapons set included.
  19. I was in first grade when Challenger happened. I was walking past the school office and I can still here some voice on the TV in there talking about maybe seeing a parachute. Anyway, it is great seeing us putting our own people back into space. We were paying a lot for the Russians to taxi us around, and now we finally got our own hot rod again. Great job Musk and SpaceX!! Here's to hoping the push stays on and we do go back to the Moon and beyond, and please do it before I die!!
  20. On the one hand, Cavil is a great Superman, but it would not be central roles. On the other, it reads like his future cameo projects is putting a hold on the Supergirl movie. Doesn't seem like good enough of a trade-off....
  21. Incredible looking model! But what I would love most would be just the Battle carrier at the nose! Man, I would love for Hasegawa or Bandai to kit that.
  22. Dang, that is one good looking beast! Will have to keep that in mind...
