I didn’t intend for this build to be timely. In fact, it wasn’t until I told my wife what I was building, and she said something about it, that I realized the connection. And, to be honest, it’s kinda hard to feel patriotic right now. Our country is hurting, our people are divided and full […]
Build: Three Banshees from Avatar
Well, I have taken to keeping track of my build counts, because people ask me how many I’ve built from time to time. And being me, I keep a count of how many of each brand. And I’ve been closing in on 300 for Metal Earth, so I thought I should do something special. I […]
Build: Color X-Wing (with bonus mod)
So, this may look a little different than you expect. First of all, it’s the color version of the model that is only sold in Disney Parks. And second, the S-foils are in closed position, which I’ve been meaning to do with an X-Wing model for some time. But… I did it a little different […]
AnimateOrange’s Random Draw Giveaway #4
Man, I struggled with deciding on what to name this post. I mean, consistency or creativity? I like being consistent, cause… well, consistency! But at the same time, it not accurate, cause it’s not really a random draw this time. This is the last one, so it’s just the last 3 models. I almost titled […]
AnimateOrange’s Random Draw Giveaway #3
Yeah, so… sorry for not coming up with fun and playful names for my posts on this round of Brad’s giveaways. I don’t mind helping him out with this, in fact I see it as an honor to be able to be a part of such a kind act of good will. That being said, […]
AnimateOrange’s Random Draw Giveaway #2
What will it be this week? What three models will you have a chance to claim as your very own? How does AnimateOrange keep doing this? How does such goodwill persist in the face of the current world climate? Who is this anonymous donor who contributed the latest models? Why is the hat’s brim so […]
Build: Sweet Arlene (P-51D Mustang)
The problem with having a big backlog of models is that some things stay in there longer than you want them to. The Sweet Arlene is definitely one of those models. Of course, I also feel like I’m always saying that the model I’m building is one that’s been waiting to be built for a […]

Review Build: DeLorean
Oh wow. I’ve had this model for a while now, sent to me by Fascinations to build and review (thank you!). And while I have built well over 300 models, there are times that I’m still intimidated by some of them. This was one, but I am glad I decided to finally build it. I’ve […]
Narrated Build: Space Shuttle
So… things are going to be a little different this week. Because I decided to try something different, and then life went crazy, and I’m way behind on my other build posts, and I can push this one to the top of the queue and finish it much more quickly than my other builds. Because […]
