  1. @Dobber Agreed! That dead bodies under the sheets scene with that music score scares the crap out of me!
  2. Back when I was a pre-teenager and through high school all I built was modern day fighters, mostly all Testors as that's really all there was around here back then.. When I got back into the hobby around 2010 it has been all sci-fi all the time up until the Titanic. I have decided to return back to my roots after the Titanic as an "easy, take a break" not sci-fi project. Also it will give me practice for the 1:48 Hasagawa that still awaits me in the closet... I've never built an Academy kit before but I've heard good things about this kit. "It's an older kit sir but it checks out"... LOL. Best part??? 48% off on Amazon and I had a few bucks in points so delivered to my doorstep.. $14. 😊
  3. Seee---that's my major problem with this guy! I pre-ordred without thinking through the WHERE part. Seriously, I don't have the room, but I want him. Does anyone know if Magic Square or New Age is gonna maybe try to pull this off in a smaller scale sooner than later?
  4. WOW! Another great build!
  5. @Rock Can't wait to see the finished product! Love the Eagle!
  6. @Rock - good to know! Thanks!
  7. WOW! Outstanding work!!
  8. Ok I'll say it....that's pretty SICK looking!!!
  9. I told my wife when we started TNG (my edited watch list version) that the best episodes are always with Data and Picard. I still stand by that. Of course she liked the Deanna episodes...LOL...SKIP button for me, unless her mother was in them, those were fantastic!
  10. Thanks guys! More PE window frames yesterday I'm having to hollow out each hole because the frames are modernized and accurate, the holes cut for the model back in the 70's/90;s... not so much! They aren't perfect, but at this scale, I'm doin ok I think! The Mr. Hobby Metal Primer R sure does the trick! Just brush it on and then paint over the part! No more chipping!
  11. Wife is OUT OF TOWN this weekend and I'm STOKED for the 2nd half of Season 4 cranked up on the system!!! Soooo good!
  12. That DS9 episode was and still is my like 2nd all-time favorite next to "In The Pale Moonlight". @sh9000 I always was a huge fan of the "messing with time" episodes of TNG especially! "We'll Always Have Paris" was a great one!
  13. I mean I get that and all, but maaaybe stop showing off new stuff that at this rate won't get produced till 2025 until you have some stuff released that's already late! Sorry, just bitching to bitch, it's been one of those days...
  14. Are these guys EVER gonna actually RELEASE anything? Or just keep putting out renders of very cool looking stuff....
  15. Well, off work all this coming week for knee surgery recovery and hopefully some modelling time indoors as well since it's averaging 104 here every day....LOL. Here's some updates that have happened in the last few days... painfully slow progress on this build, almost every single part doesn't fit right or needs to be modified for the PE to look right, or I painted wrong 4 months ago or or or....yeh yeh I know, shut up and keep going. Small victories though...got the 2nd dome skylight cover modified with strip styrene to make a convincing checkerboard pattern so both look like they actually did on the real ship now! Also got a lot of little bits and bops glued on one of the upper roof sections. My Mr. Metal Primer should be here tomorrow hopefully so I can start messing with putting that on the PE stairs and railings, so the freaking paint stays on! Stay tuned!
  16. @Tking22 I honestly tried a few years back to watch the remastered TOS on Netflix just so I could say I've watched "ALL" Trek up to Discovery, but I just couldn't make it past the first few episodes, it's not the plots or the acting that kills me, it's those insane music and sound effects that are just so JARRING anytime anything happens! I will say the video quality and redone VFX shots were very very well done by the folks in charge. TOS and TNG definitely got ALL the love and money thrown at them and left DS-9 and poor Voyager hung out to dry in the land of standard def 480i forever! Which is truly a crime IMHO especially in the case of DS9!
  17. .....and her ummm top lady parts look a little small from those pics...
  18. Ohhh man, my brother in law would absolutely LOVE this!
  19. A lot of these newer shows shot in 4K Dolby Vision pretty much require you to watch them in a completely dark room. I keep my Dolby Vision setting on "Bright" for everything on Disney + and don't attempt watching them until after dark with one LED lamp on in the corner of the room dimmed to like 10%. The directors and people in charge seem to have forgotten that just because they watch everything in darkened editing suites or screening rooms, that somewhere out in the REAL world, people might actually have these things called WINDOWS in their living rooms!
  20. Ok, I'll just come out and say it. never had any love for Bayformer designs or the movies really apart from the 1st one kinda, but that Devastator is amazing! The paint apps are incredible! MS Ratchet looks reeeally goood! Might have to be my 1st MS purchase!
  21. 100% agree with this especially after hearing some reviews of it slamming if for "The Message".... Critical Drinker fans will get it.
