    I think it showed how much he had grown since RoTJ. And it was certainly better to be battle droids rather than people. Also, just an awesome scene! And one can only hope they are going more EU rather than TFA! That's a trilogy that needs to be rewritten! And they can do EU stories, just get Sebastian Stan for Luke, Chris Pratt for Han and Billie Lourd for Leia! We don't speak of Jar Jar...

    I can see that as a scene right out of the series. Nice job!

    Yes, if it had been (mostly) anyone else, the question would have been, 'Whose this? and why?' But with it being Luke, and de-aged at that, it made it workable and notable. and very entertaining. Esp when you compare this scene to his father's in Rogue One. Plus, who else of the Jedi was going to answer Grogu's call? and I recall that book with the Dark Saber super weapon. Not much else of it though, just that it was just the central laser from the Death Star, sheathed in a hull that made it look like a saber hilt.

    This. That whole sequence was just plain awesomeness.
  5. Thom
    I think you are right.

    He's looking real good @pengbuzz!

    Starting a new project, Italeri's 1/72 SM79 Sparviero. I won't be opening it up and just going to detail the cockpit a bit, just in case I can see anything through the glazing. To that end, I'm using some Eduard PE, such as for the IP. The instructions call for light green on the interior, but I think it should be light gray, but that'll be easy to fix as it is the only painted at the moment. Thom

    I don't know, in my case I also had no knowledge of the Mandalorians and I thought the show, esp the second season, helped flesh it out for me. The stories can meander a bit though which takes the eye off the main plot. Still well worth the ride though.

    LOL!! That's what I ger for typing too fast and not spell-checking! Corrected!

    Was Ewen McGregor too young to BE (TO BE) Obi-wan, or was Alec Guinness too old?

    Very nice and clean build, @electric indigo! Definitely more of a 'real' look than model look.

    Vader learned his lesson after the lava bath.

    It's the stomach acid treatment. Not for everyone.

    Picked this lil gem up from Etsy. At 3 inches long, it's about 1/4000 and was $20 with shipping.

    Little known fact. If you tune the Death Star laser down to its lowest power setting, and I mean low, it is ideal for a 5 minute laser wrinkle treatment.

    @tekering I have to say, I don't think this is bad enough for a major cut. Certainly not Obiwan or BoBF bad. @SwannI think she does. But maybe her species can look younger than they are, like space elves. As for the statues, they could still play a role later on even without Ray Stevenson. RIP. A scroll could mention him suddenly vanishing while in search of The Ones,a nd perhaps the character will be 'shown' from then on only as a Force-Ghost voice.
  17. Thom
    Nope, not that. Now I have no idea what it was!

    Now I'm wondering if I'm thinking of the right show... It was flat with a central cargo section that could be jettisoned, but it's been so long ago I may be misremembering. Maybe something from Bionic Six..? Anyway, I've often thought of kitbashing an X-Wing into the Interceptor.

    @Chronocidal A very nice 'card model!' Shapes may not be 'right' but it certainly has the Firefox family feel. Maybe that was a prototype, called the Firekit. I also built some cardboard models as a kid, most notably an attempt at one of the hero ships from Galaxy Rangers, and an F-86 Scorpion made from cardboard and skinned in black electrical tape. It's been more than thirty years, so it is long gone but I recall it had a wingspan of about two feet and was able to fly across the street with a good throw! Unfortunately, it was left out on the porch overnight when it rained and the damp softened the cardboard and drooped it. Good memories though.

    @pengbuzz Real cool bit of artwork! And if I was in any way a contributor, then that's awesome!
  21. Thom
    Thanks @pengbuzz! And yeah, those little plaques are quick and easy. I like the artwork you put on the base. Self made?
  22. Thom
    And Asuka is DUN!! (well, except for her air wing...) So she is done and I just need to paint the stand and do a small air wing, consisting of some planes from this kit as well as the Yamato kit. Thom

    @electric indigo or submersible fighter!
  24. Thom
    A few years down the line, but good to hear the gears are still turning.

    @Urashiman Unknowingly thinking ahead!
