What the postman brought today (Modelgeek)

Always like Johnny Quest.

But it because I’m a very sick and twisted man, I really like venture brothers. Here’s their version of the Dragonfly, the X1

Sorry to be disingenuous. The postman did not bring this. I acquired it in 2014 from the estate of our late friend Russell, “Siderius” on the site. In the next year or two I’ll build it in his memory.

Had this one, unfortunately my skills did not meet the requirement at the time.

Aye Koda, but aren’t we all a wee bit off?? :laughing: I was talking to myself about that very subject the other day and I told me that it is okay to be like that. :open_mouth: :laughing:

In addition to the already assembled Atreides ornithopter, it is an analog from their eternal enemies.- Harkonnens. He’s so fat :))

Online auction bargain. £66. Actually a rebox of the amazing finemolds 1/72nd falcon. The box and instructions are awful, especially considering the original rrp, price tag still on the box! However the plastic is all there and very nice indeed…

Yeah, missed out on one the week before as forgot to up my bid, that went for £78 so a win in the end.

Their rubbish own brand 1/72nd falcon kit comes in almost exactly the same box…

you could also show just a flight stand and claim it’s a Klingon Bird of Prey, that is cloaked :slight_smile:

Going to attempt a Ralph McQuarrie inspired scheme on this. Think the resistance x-wing lends itself to this better than the original one.

I had this Zardoz figure arrive in the mail from FunkyMaclunkey. My son ordered it for me as a birthday gift. I had told him that Zardoz was one of the worst movies I had ever watched and so he ordered this figure for me as a joke. :laughing:

Even in 1/72 scale that’s one hefty chunk of resin! :open_mouth: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

ZARDOZ - Sean Connery’s WORST ever movie! :nauseated_face: :face_vomiting: Whatever compelled him to star (??) in it? Did he spend all his money from the Bond franchises? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: The only redeeming feature was the semi-naked girls on horseback riding on the beach! :face_savoring_food: :hugs:

I thought that when I bought it, but it’s mostly hollow except for an internal lattice support. 3D printed so I guess it saves on the resin.

Really nice kits. I had planned on building the full collection of Starfleet shuttles from them with the AMT Runabout.

Oh, and thanks. It’s a reminder that I really need to get this done. Guilty of forgetting all about it till I saw your comment.

Yeah, was very lucky, haven’t seen another since, have it ready for building. First got the Bandai x-wing and y-wing on the workbench all ready for primer, so will be resurrecting an old thread very soon!
