    I didn't notice any changes as far as the special effects go. There might have been a few extra seconds added to a scene here and there, I'm not an expert on the film, but nothing that stood out to me like "Oh wow!, I don't remember that scene!" Still one hell of a ride. My wife had never seen it, so we watched Space Seed a couple of nights before we went to the theater for WOK. She said she was glad we did that. I got my 4K BluRay of TMP Directors Cut in the mail and OHH MAN, there are some soft focus scenes but they were there in the theater as well, overall the video transfer is very good, but the AUDIO is outstanding! WAY better than the theater we saw it in. The opening Klingon/Cloud scene alone had me sold! I don't have Dolby Atmos, but I do have a very good 6.1 system and in Dolby TrueHD 6.1, the surrounds are all VERY well used as well the LFE channel. Highly recommended! Makes me kinda wish I'd just bought the 1-6 Box Set!

    I mean it may turn out to be complete crap, but that's a pretty good damn trailer IMHO. And the Titan????...Ok.....Buuuuuuuuuuut whyyyyyyyy can't we get the Enterprise F on screen FINALLY???!!!!

    I liked "The Game" because...young Ashley Judd. Period. There is NOTHING more to discuss. 😍😍. In other news the wife actually TOLD me to buy the upcoming re-release Box Set of Next Gen on Blu-Ray so we'll have ALL the episodes to go back and watch someday...Ummmm..OK! Didn't have to twist my arm on that one! Releasing on 9/20!

    I've seen it once in the theater, but like you, I am going to OWN the 4K BluRay on the release date and try to destroy my home theater speakers in the following weeks... "Honey???...Ummm we now NEED to buy a new Dolby ATMOS receiver and ALL new speakers!!!..."

    Very cool idea and very nice build!
  17. derex3592
    That's a GREAT custom!
  18. derex3592
    Ok, good, it's not just me....

    One of my favs -- When Picard walks back onto the bridge after being on the planet, Patrick Stewart just OWWNED that scene as he talked the other ships 1st officer in their "language". Everyone on the Enterprise bridge was just like...WTF... Classic!
  21. derex3592
    That's quite a......package old Rook/Houquet is umm packing...WTH?!
  22. derex3592
    @tekering - Have you ever thought about filming your model building and doing a YouTube channel? A lot of work I know, but I know I would for sure watch that!
  23. derex3592
    Yes! I watched the whole series, and it was excellent! Very enjoyable. John Dykstra and all those guys back then were just exceptionally brilliant! It's kind of odd that now we've come back around full circle to certain directors and producers to WANT to do things live and not in CG. Look at the new show Andor, not shot using "The Volume". Interesting times for sure! Kind of going back and using the CG as more of a tool and not an end all be all or crutch nowadays for some things.

    @nightmareB4macross - No, well, haha, most of it is the 1/350 Minicraft kit designed in the 70's. It's been re-popped over the years with minor changes, this one was after the 1997 Titanic movie as best I can tell. It doesn't have the upgrades some of the later kits had unfortunately, so I've had to do quite a bit of creative scratch building of some parts to make it look halfway decent. @Urashiman I believe @Sanity is Optional was commenting on my broken Dspaie nippers. @Thom @sh9000 Thanks! @MechTech Thanks! Yes, I've found the exact same thing when using the single high end cutters. Make your initial cut a bit away from the part, then go in sloooowly with the good cutters flush up against the part 90 degrees to the way you might first thing to cut it, and it's still not absolutely perfect, but darn close. Nothing 5 seconds with a light grit sanding stick or glass file and a quick buff can't make perfect. I tried this method from Barbatos Rex (using the God Hands/glass files/nail buffer pad) yesterday just for fun on the two main halves of the Tamiya Space Shuttle and the results were very good!

    I just wish before Yamato went belly up, back when they were cranking out a Valk a week or so it seemed for a while, they would have done all the 1:48's schemes in 1:60V2. Man, that would have been so awesome...
