Now I've had...

The time of my life...

No I've never felt like this before...

Yes I swear, it's the truth...

And I owe it all to you!

The adorable little rubber ducky transformer on there is slightly over an inch tall (Edit: Or two and a half centimeters tall, if that’s the system you use!), if that helps with understanding the scale.

Thank you, especially with thinking about scale and centimeters. I'll have a look around!

Janine: “Mmmmhmmm... and it’s a clown?... mmmhmmmm... pale face... mmmhmmm... green hair.... yup... oh yes, Batman is totally discreet!”

Batman: “dammit... never should have fired Alfred. Good help is so hard to find.”

I knew someone would come up with a good punch line! I was at a loss. "It's his day off" sounded so lame. Your version is much better!

Speaking of pale face, I never noticed before how red / pink my Batman is. I need to correct that next time I have the paint out.

That is a beautiful picture!


Ed and I enjoyed the first "The Orville" comic very much and we can't wait for part 2 coming out this week. It was like watching a new episode.

I finally got my model set and I wanted to thank you again for linking to it! I had ordered it back then but needed to wait until it was in store again.

I only had built the lab table set so far and that was snapped together so this was the first that I actually had to glue and I apparently made every mistake you can do

I bent the front side too much while trying to cut it off from the frames and ended up with a visible tear/break. And despite my best intentions I also had smeared glue on the front side so I ended up painting it red which does not really show thankfully. I also managed to get glue onto the clear pieces and trying to wipe that off with paint remover was not one of my smartest ideas... well the clear parts are now frosted glass and who says that can't be possible?

Finally I seem to have some parts left over but that is not my fault, the manual never asked for them. I also think they mixed up parts 11 and 12. Despite all this, I am still very happy with the result and I even managed to put a light into it.
I might want to look for some black square as base so I can rise it up a little for my larger figures. Ed is 6" but also bent over a bit.

That looks great Astra! Very cool with the added lighting. I still haven't assembled mine yet. But I will soon! Hehe.

I just saw this and yea to a point I agree but it's one thing for me to do a marvel legend or a figuart out there but when it comes to stuff that starts getting into the hundreds my eye twitches thinking about getting them dirty.

Thank you!
Oh but you have to! Just be careful with the glue
The instructions are really self explaining. If you follow the exact numbers that are printed on the plastics.
It's just an electrical tealight that I put inside, no proper lighting.

Thank you very much, man and it's nice to see that the staging of the photo actually worked its intended purpose!

REALLY like what you did with that Wonder Woman Bo...I recognize the Legends head and hairpiece, but where did the tiara come from?

I've seen that Wonder Woman a few times on shelves, but the headsculpt has been the one thing that's kept me from pulling the trigger. You've now motivated me to go ahead and grab it. What's the secret to customizing it?
