    According to Quartz [c. 2018]: so yea, not a big % of a $100 Million modern fighter...

    Roy probably jammed the throttles forward and burned the paint going mach 5 on the deck... you know, just Roy being Himself but yea, it's a little stark... probably shoulda put 1 or 2 more really thin coats of white over it to tone it down... or maybe if she was supposed to be gray instead of white this approach would've come out more subtle.

    Now THAT'S an experience most civilians will NEVER get!! no "eject button" that I'm aware of... however there are "canopy jettison" buttons on some older jets and even prop-driven fighters... but looking at the Raphael's seat: That yellow/black stripey-thing sure looks an awful lot like an ejection handle to me...

    "For Villeneuve, this 55-year-old story about a planet being mined to death was not merely a space adventure, but a prophecy." Aaaaaaaaaaand I'm back to 50/50 on whether this will suck as hard as the Lynch version I think I'm going to dig out my DVD copy and re-watch that, because it's most certainly the best yet. The spice must flow. Long live the fighters of Muad-Dib!!

    That's a handsome bow there, @tekering! That's a mix of a Hase TV Cruiser-mode and Attack-mode? I'll need to take notes, that looks great!

    +1 Extra Bright side: That just means some future collector might want to find out "who the F is this [Name Redacted] person who was lucky enough to get this made for them?!" someday.

    they're not shell deflectors, they're blast deflectors, to make sure the windscreen/intakes dont get all gunsmokey. the spent casing chutes are on the bottom.

    I haven't taken a magnifying glass to anything I've purchased that's been marked like that, but my experiences have been great. their labels are very honest in my experiences. good example: VF-22 Gamlin marked "opened used, package damaged" package had shelf-wear, and a torn corner, VF-22 had obviously been displayed, was a little dusty, most stickers [lovingly and skillfully] applied, is in 9/10 condition, and cost me 20,000yen. I've had no complaints.

    Indeed, someone needs to tell them Flush rivets have been a thing since the 20's guys... this one looks even MORE lie it was designed in a soviet tank-factory... but it's an HG license, so that tracks.
