1/72 VF-25 gear part diameter:
Nose wheel, 5mm
Nose tires, 7mm
Main wheel, 6mm
Main tire, 8.5mm
(the tires are very thin, only a little bigger than the wheel)
Gubaba---she's simply Apollo's "head-Starbuck". Hey, everyone else has a personal hallucination to keep them company, he should too!
Also, don't miss on how very little the camera had to pan over to be able to zoom back in to Earth.
Gubaba---I said your opinion of Tigh should be finalized by the end of Season 3. Well?
His "that's the man I'll be" line is probably my fave in the series.
PS---and for "things to think about"----how incredibly ironic it is that he killed Ellen because she was frakking a cylon.
Have you seen the video? It's like US MP Starscream all over again. Caught fire then flew through a coal mine.

No clear parts at all on Grace's? I'm going to have to go snag more screen caps to compare to... (there's definitely some fairly bright green parts in that area but they may be striping)
Anyone seen "Synergy green", the awesome new color for the Camaro? Well they just announced it'll be V6-only. And only for the non-RS models.
Maybe they'll make Polo Green available for the SS model.
Yeah but she'd need a blue-purple wig, too. And a "hacking into Frontier's computer network" necklace. Still, I was surprised at the price too---seemed cheap compared to most other costumes. Grace's costume is neat in that someone probably could wear it to an office, and not really attract any attention (unless a Frontier fan worked there).
Yes, Romo Lampkin rocks. But the most important thing is that Racetrack is ok and she didn't get any scars from the explosion.
PS---this is one of my fave moments in the series: http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/File:Ada..._b-day_card.jpg
Anyone who's ever built a model feels for that ship, and Adama. When the series was originally aired I often felt like I was the only one who realized just how much effort went into such a thing. (and model ships are probably THE most time-consuming of all, when rigged) (which is why I've never built a model sailing ship---too daunting)
People who are even better at landing gear identificatio than I say the wheels look like an F-14's. (the idea is that they used as many existing parts as possible to get it up and running quickly, much like the YF-23 and X-29)
Also, 787 first flight moved up. Keeps changing, 14-18-22-15. But sometime around 2 weeks from now.
Looking at what I did to mine, actually, you can just cut the belts off and it won't make any difference really. It's the "chest clamps" that can only be removed via pin removal.
Use a hammer.

Note that it takes a lot of "fiddling" with Jetfire to get everything shuffled around so that you can actually GET to the pins to remove the belts and have room to brace the parts.
?? Your last comment was already spoiler-tagged before I replied to it, so Gubaba shouldn't know what I was referring to. But I went back and spoiler-tagged just in case, or there's something I'm forgetting.
And sorry for not seeing it as a mis-direction.
