  1. @Rock Wow, great lookingf -19! Love the colors on it. @pengbuzz Airwolf is looking great! Bring us moar! As for me, suffering from some paint scullduggery, but it's still moving along.
  2. She's playing Shalla Bal, Immortal Empress of Zenn-la and the lover to Norrin Rad (in the comics.) I wonder if they'll hold to the comics to explain her as being a Silver Surfer, seeing as at one time she also had the Power Cosmic?
  3. I'd be interested to see where they go with it. They did The One and revolutions, so I think it would need to be something different. Staying true to what made it a success is good, bu they could just end up retreading. I was fine with it ending with 4. Heck, I was fine with it ending with 1.
  4. @Rock Don't have that glue, but I'll look into getting some. I put some clear Gator glue into it, then followed that with some PPP. Hopefully that'll 'fix' it. And your light box looks very light!
  5. Will be well worth the effort @Urashiman. As for canopies, I'm finally getting mine in place. Not the most perfect fit, but it's what I got And since my kit is missing the PE fret it left the factory with, I had to make the DF loop and repurpose some unused inner framing as an antenna. I think I can get to masking and paint tomorrow! Happy times with plastic torture devices! Thom
  6. I liked it too. Could have used a bit more with the Big Bad, but I liked it overall, though I feel it does miss some of the 'quipyness' of Afterlife. And yes, less Kumall, or at least someone else playing the part.
  7. Now this looks like restoration work of actual old toys, with clear metal stressing.
  8. It seams like they start out slightly damaged/used but maybe get a little bit 'more weathered' before he starts to clean them. Admitedly, I don't watch these vids, but the few I have seen (posted on here usually) I don't see any body damage work. Just a quick bath and BAM, ready for paint.
  9. IMO, it looks like it may look worse than it is to start. So maybe just a slightly dirty/cracked toy that is 'weathered' a bit more before the cleaning. I admit, I do not watch these, but I think it would take more than just soaping off parts to fix something that's been abandoned/abused.
  10. Chappy, Jeriba, Foley, the most memorable of his roles for me. Looks like I'll be rewatching Enemy Mine soon. Rest in Peace, good sir!
  11. @SteveTheFish Interested to see how that turns out.
  12. Definitely not! If anything, I might suggest doing a little more. From what I recall, Zentradi mechs are very old or/either very well used.
  13. @Urashiman I remember! It may have subconsciously helped in deciding to build this one. I actually wanted a quick build for a model show coming up in a week. And, except for some fiddly construction, it has been. That snow speeder is looking real nice, but don't poo-poo the VF-1 too much. She looks like she'll be a nice shelf queen.
  14. I think it's a little clearer when we put some wings on it. I think, I might know what it's turning into...🤔
  15. @electric indigo All those little, exquisite little parts are sure to make something grand! @Urashiman Sorry about the Plamax VF-1, but there are more out there to buy! As to the VF-19, I'm liking the blue. And that is master-masking! For me, I don't know what I'm doing anymore! Every time I work on my model it changes shape again. I have no idea what it will be next!!
  16. I'm of the opinion that there shouldn't need to be any tie-in material. Everything pivotal to the movie/franchise should be in the movie/franchise as seen on screen.
  17. @Kurt Great work on that JLTV. The wear and the mud really tie in.
  18. You know, I've though about scratch building one out of styrene but that was many years ago. You however, I think you could do it! Oh, and I edited my post so it didn't like look a five-year old typed it!😊
  19. I would love to have a NMC model in cruiser mode! Though maybe a little bit bigger. I actually started a little in surprise when the huge hands came in to grasp that tiny box. Nice looking model though, and that it is so articulated is great.
  20. @pengbuzz Awesome! Glad you got it figured out. Awaiting to be tuned!
  21. Having never played the game, I'm up for another fantasy movie with magic and swords and maybe some dragons. Not enough of them. Just please, don't be as bad as World of Warcraft!
  22. Well, I don't care where the term came from. It seems to fit, as I think most people are not liking it (IMO )based more on history than what it actually will be. As always, I prefer to wait until it airs before deciding whether it's going to suck or not. If it's good, great. If it sucks on its own merits and not the failings of previous series, then oh well, it's just a TV show.
  23. I'm actually more inclined to call it 'review bombing.' It's a teaser that doesn't show that much, so we know literally little about it. Cetianly not enough to complain so much, though that never stopped anybody.
