  1. MY oldest is getting into papercraft by way of Oragami Yodas. I showed him this thread and he about lost his mind.
  2. I know I used to live in Tucson, watching A-10s flying over was a great part of my day, everyday. I still remember when I first moved to Tucson that the A-7s were still flying out of TIA with the AZANG. My Dad would complain because of how low they came in and that runway damn near comes to the street, so he would be at the stoplight and the ungodly noise of an A-7 roaring over would almost split his eardrums. The A-7 was one of the loudest birds ever, now we have the F-35.
  3. Projectfree.tv pretty much every show out there is on there via its various mirrors and most you can get that night if you are patient. That is how we watch the latest shows since we cut the cable
  4. There is a lot of push back to keep the A-10 flying until after the F-35A is actually online to serve as its replacement. Losing the A-10 will not kil Davis Monathon though, with AMARC there the AF has to keep that base open, they will shift resources around and move another aircraft there. Worst case they will turn DM into an Air Reserve Base and probably have the AZ ANG move over there from the airport. Also, yes the U-2/TR-1 is finally going to go away. The RQ-4 will be its replacement, as it should ahve been years ago, and now that it is being retired it is hastening RQ-4 upgrades and sensor development.

    YF-21 WIP

    nicely done
  6. very cool, can't wait to see the whole thing put together
  7. If you want the latest news on the Pak-Fa, unclassified, go onto the keypublishing forums. As for the visible actuator pumps on most of the fifth gen fighters, that's thin wing syndrome. The electric actuators for supersonic fighters are massive compared to old hydraulics and cables. The YF-23 had a thicker wing and store more fuel there then most of the other 5th gens. As a result you don't see the actuator bumps, which did help make it stealthier.
  8. Ok, so if this is set in the modern day why the heck are there all these humans out there and a hyper-evolved sentient racoon?
  9. I might consider the 1/100, for the boys can't remember if the reviews were crap or not. I just wish the plushes would come out sooner, then I would get one or two for the little guy.
  10. That sword is rediculous. The sharp edge of the main blade faces the wielder and if you flip it around that hand guard gets in the way.
  11. So Titanfall is then confirmed MP only. That is a giant pass from me then, too bad.
  12. Very cool prop but it definitely shows the biggest problem with the design, the tiny grip, you can't get all four fingers in there.
  13. Hmm, well if WMC worked on it I suppose I will have to go see it. But this weekend we can go to a free screening of the lego movie, decisions, decisions.
  14. So I read the synopsis of the new Robocop, I am not impressed.
  15. Very cool, if it does come out I will think about getting one, though it will likely cost as much as an arcadia valk, ugh Legos are so freaking expensive...
  16. Holy Shnikies that is awesome. You need to take some shots with it next to other 1:72 Macross models, do you have any VF-1s or Moscato creations?
  17. Gargoyles was great until it went to saturday mornings, once it did that I rarely saw it and when I did I didn't like what I saw.
  18. So my wireless router is getting ready to die, not bad for a ten year linksys, anyone have any suggestions for a good replacement, that can handle up to 10 devices online at once?
  19. Primary reason, it won't fit. The F-100 is a shorter, wider engine, while the J79 is thin and quite long. There was testing early in the F-16 program where they put J79 into an F-16 as a just in case type measure.
  20. I would love it if it were a gatling airsoft gun, epic awesome right there
