So much to choose from not sure which will get done.

Been wanting to do my Fine Molds 72nd X-Wing in Coran Horn's markings for some time.
Have a couple of Battletech mechs that need to get built.
1/1000 scale conversion for the Polar Lights USS Enterprise into the Destroyer version from the Manual.
The new Snap together Batmobile is a recent edition to the stash.
Also have a couple figure kits:
2 different Catwoman figures, Julie Newman in resin from the TV show and Michelle Pfeiffer in vinyl from the 2nd movie.
Also acquired the 1200 101st Spaceborn figure from John's Models at the Nationals. Was missing the gun arm but a quick call and he has cast up a replacement piece and it should be here before the start time.
Also have the Droid kit to do. Had picked up one of the guns from Starship Modeler so I don't have to do the STAP but have misplaced the dang thing.

I'm looking for something... Have only some stuff from WarHammer 40.000. Not sure yet.

[smethwick]

All things going well...workwise etc...

I will be having a go at this little beauty...

[SJPONeill]

Was stuck for something relatively simple 'til this rose to the top of the stash...





Comes from one of the many and varied Japanese giant robot cartoons...no idea where it came from...think I got it for a song on Trademe years ago...is very big i.e. the box is A4 size and is full of parts and very simple, almost a blitzbau candidate...comes with three very finely detailed figures that will probably take longer to paint than the whole rest of it....

Doesn't come with the weapon pack shown so will have to greeble up some form of payload...

[MerlinJones]

...Like a TSR2 MS?

[SJPONeill]

...certainly one, maybe two, of the big rocket/missile things might do the trick, Bruce...that trailer unit is anout 10 inched long but the bay has some greeble in it that takes up about 1/4 to 1/3 of the internal space...

[JamesPerrin]

Looks similar to the trailers they use in Patlobor to move the robots by road.

Always thought it would be cool if there was some big laser thing or a rocket launcher that would rise up out of it.

So this is the weekend before the GB after...

Some of you are already set with your threads and ready to go for Monday.

I've decided I want to stay with 1/144, having warmed up on some 144th Squadron models and will be getting at least two of my 1/144 resins down from The Stash.

Regards,
Bruce

Went into the LMS last weekend looking for something for this GB, but they only had Easy Kits.

In there today, and from deep within the basement he brings up a battered box, and says, I think this is what you might be looking for.

So, if you gents don't mind, as a late starter, and to complements Jeff's Deep Ocean Transport, I'll join in with this:



I'm sure I will get it finished in time.

Thanks

Hell Yeah!
Get it built and welcome to the Build.

Regards,
Bruce
(Who hopes Alan doesn't realise what a sought-after kit he has).

Sought after or not, its a kit to me, I bought it to build and build it I shall.

Get started as soon as I can.
