  1. Very cool! I need it about twice as large and available in the US!😁
  2. Fine! I'm just trying to live vicariously through others... ...nice new avatar.
  3. Nice collection! Hoping the rereleases will come out soon! Coming along great on that Battroid @nightmareB4macross And yes, that little guy is soo cute!!! And @pengbuzz it looks like you'll just need eight paper towel roles to start the Reinhardt's Folly!😁
  4. Last I heard (in February), Round2 was going to reissue all of the kits from the movie, including the missing section for the Cygnus itself. CultMan has pre-Pre-Order pages up (that so far still say Not Available...) I take it with all of its flaws and just enjoy! In fact, as I was watching, I was thinking to myself how well the character interactions were...
  5. Hah! @tekering I just watched that movie today!
  6. Getting back into 1/6 and I bought this version of the CW Batwoman from Soosoo Toys.
  7. Also good to keep in mind that the number of crew can change depending on mission needs. So I imagine that it could fluctuate easily between 200 and 400 due to requirements. In fact, if they do 'de-evolve' the Enterprise before Kirk gets it, then the larger crew could be required because of less automation, which then of course would require more, smaller, crew quarters to fit them all. I really hope they don't do that, as I do love her current look! As to this weeks episode, I'd call that another good one in the can! I don't usually like 'thru the viewfinder' episodes but this was done really well. Questions raised on what Starfleet is about, the crews dedication to the ultimate mission and how far to go when assisting another race caught in a terrible war. The second half of this season has turned out really well so far!
  8. Another good episode! The last two have really cranked it up from the first three, which were good-meh-good, and now very good and very good. Really liked that a lot was from Kirk's angle in this one, and we got some space battles and some wrecked ships along the way. Two things I didn't like was the cartoony look of the scavenger ship and how the number of crew on Enterprise just disappeared. They had most of Farragut's crew aboard as well as their own and Pike, La'an and Dead Redshirt Gal are seen running though almost empty corridors. Leads me to assuming their security detail consisted of just La'an and the Sacrifice. 😁 I can only assume it's budget concerns whenever they leave the bridge (or quarters) for a populated set like the corridors. More actors (even background) equals more money. Still, liking the upward trend from the start. Much rather climbing than declining towards the season finale.
  9. Rest in peace, General. All of Krypton shall remember you!
  10. Looking good @Papa Rat!
  11. Great to see Christie back, and I liked the little joke pertaining to Sandman. The first half was good and I am looking forward to the rest.
  12. Cool! Though I tried to pre-order and it said the product is not available!
  13. Thank you @borgified. Went another route. Hope to get 'it' in a week or so.
  14. Ah, thank you! I had forgotten that part!
  15. @pengbuzz That is a great finish on the Cat's Eye! Glad you got it finished and in such fine style. As to the next project, V.I.N.C.E.N.T. sounds like a great idea. @tekering That is a gorgeous looking Cygnus. I have yet to even get my printer set up... The detail is so good! And that is some interesting info on casting. I wonder what Cartwright thought about that. Although, I think it was Jennifer O'Neill who was set to play McCrae, but left over the hair-thing. Would be a bit of a slap for Weaver to dump the role over cutting her hair, just to go bald in the completely fictional, never actually done or filmed or released Alien 3, that was nothing but a weird fever-dream that made Josh Whedon wet his bed one night.
  16. Episode 4 was above and away, way better than the first three. My fav of the season so far. For me, nice level of mystery and suspense and I hope they keep this up. My one problem... Thom
  17. I'm looking to buying a 1/6 figure and saw a good price from Pop Collectibles. https://popcollectibles.store/ Does anyone have any feedback on this site? Good or bad? Thom
  18. Thank you @wm cheng Great work on that phaser!
  19. @Papa Rat That is a cool, funky looking lil ship.
  20. On the Ranger, we come across the discovery of gaps... Under the 'wings.' I put a shim in on both sides to stabilize the parts and will be using PPP to fill them. Then it was onto the gear doors. As said before, the landing feet do not fit the opening, so new ones need to be made. Out came the Scotch tape and a pencil. The reluting traces were then applied to thin styrene and tenderly cut out. The fit was a lot better! Not perfect, but good enough for my work. I'll sand those down some and then start filling in the gappage! Thom
  21. Coming along great @pengbuzz! Well worth the save and recovery. Good work on that Scout @Papa Rat!
