Yeah, I built two of them! What you see here is the classic silver AT-AT model, and the Disney Parks Exclusive colored version. And while this is the first time I’ve built the colored one, the silver is a replacement for a model that got heavily damaged a while back when I had the unfortunate […]
Build: Targaryen Sigil (Color)
So, crazy thing happened recently. I think it was the day after I posted about building the silver Targaryen Sigil. Another builder posted about finding the Barnes & Noble exclusive Game of Thrones pack with the colored version for sale at 50% off on their website. So I checked it out, and found that the […]
I Built a Lightsaber From Spare Parts!
It’s really small, and it’s not perfect, but it was fun! I had this idea a while back that I could probably make a miniature lightsaber with spare parts left over from my builds. I started keeping them after seeing other builders use their spare parts to create unique builds or modifications to builds, and […]
Review Build: Targaryen Sigil
This might shock some of you, but I’ve never watched Game of Thrones, nor do I plan to. It seems ironic, given my appreciation of dragons and fantasy and whatnot. But I have my reasons. That doesn’t mean that I can’t build models based on the show, though! And I got to do exactly that, […]
Review Build: Model T Runabout
With a great big thank you to Fascinations for sending me this model to review, I’m happy to present to you the 1925 Ford Model T Runabout! This new line of classic Ford models really shine with the colors, adding contrast and detail. I know some of you like the classic silver, but I don’t […]
Build: Middle Earth Marathon
You know what? I have some awesome friends. They are each awesome in their own merit, and in their own ways. But sometimes they take it over the top. One such instance lead to this post. A very cool, very awesome friend (you know who you are) sent me the full set of Lord of […]
Build: Monster Truck
Some builds go well. Some builds do not. My build of the Monster Truck was one of the latter. I think the result turned out fairly well, but I have only myself to blame for the parts that didn’t. And the one thing that I was most worried about before starting the build? Yeah, it’s […]
Build: Hogwarts Express (BAM! Exclusive)
I originally reported that this model (exclusive to Books-A-Million and subsidiaries, such as 2nd and Charles) was a colored version of the classic silver Hogwarts Express with the addition of a display base. I am glad to admit that I was wrong. While this may be based on the classic model, it’s actually been revised […]
Build: Droid Pack Duo
Why yes, I did just build an Artoo for my 300th build. I thought I’d build the R2-D2 model from the Disney Parks exclusive Droid Pack as a quick bonus follow-up post. But as it turns out, R2-D2 and BB-8 share 4 sheets between them, and a single set of instructions, so I figured, why […]
Review Build: Zorii’s Y-Wing Fighter
Long asked for, and finally here, I had the joy of building this amazingly detailed and complex Y-Wing. And let me tell you, it was worth the wait! I have not been building these models as long as many of you, so I haven’t been waiting as long as some, but I definitely am glad […]
