Metal Earth is bringing two new models, the Naoe Armor and the ICONX / Premium Series P-38 Lightning! No news on when they will be coming, but they look gorgeous. Love the addition of a twin tail airplane to the aviation lineup. It has such a unique profile that it should stand out in any […]
Piececool Brings Marvel and Ancient
Well, you had to know it was coming. Three more Marvel models have just been dropped on the Piececool website. Along with a couple of additions to the Datang Small Street line, which looks to be gaining at least 5 more sets (including these two). But I know y’all are more excited about the Marvel […]
Sneak Peeks at Mandalorian and Mars Models
Well, I missed getting to make a post about the Perseverance Rover (and Ingenuity Helicopter!) on Friday due to life getting busy-busy-busy, but it turned out to be a good thing. Because now I get to bring you two news items at once, what with Innovatoys getting the scoop on the Mandalorian models, and dropping […]
Coming Soon: HULKBUSTER!
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY. Like, seriously, I’m going to blow my budget for a couple of months, but I have got to have the Hulkbuster. Oh, and there’s some new battleship, too (Richelieu). But I’m all about that Hulkbuster. Also, you may have noticed, but if not – it looks like the Hulkbuster […]
Coming Soon: Piececool Architecture
Wow, been a busy week of news! We’ve got some rather impressive architectural builds showing up on the Piececool website, strangely enough with a release date of two days ago (and before the Droid models date). These three models, the Ziwei Palace, Daming Palace, and Wind-Rain Bridge, are all rearing and ready to go. Along […]
Coming Soon: International Space Station
Oh yeah. I am so ready for this model. I do believe this is the first real-life space-themed ICONX model, and I think they chose the right subject for that. I can’t wait to build it, ever since they teased it, and even the rumors before that. This is going to be a beast of […]
More About those Droids
Piececool finally dropped some more information, and more photos, on the Star Wars droid models. They are scheduled for release on the 13th of August, so I would expect to see them showing up on AliExpress and other online stores shortly after that. But the part I was most interested in was the additional photos, […]
Coming Soon: Piececool Droids!
So, sometime over the weekend, Piececool dropped these new models on their page. And I had a bit of a busy weekend, so I completely failed to post anything about it. I gotta say, I’m a bit excited about these models, especially K2-SO and C-3PO, since we haven’t had ICONX scale versions of these. R2-D2 […]
Monster Truck Sneak Peek!
Well, the July Newsletter just dropped, and it looks like we are getting another Monster Truck in the future. If I knew anything about Monster Trucks, I might be able to identify this one. But sadly, I’ve never had the joy of actually going to a Monster Truck Rally. Seriously, I’d love to. Just haven’t. […]
Vader, Warhawk and Dragon Lady Coming Soon!
I’m sure I’m not the only one glad to see that Vader has finally made his debut on the Coming Soon page! And wow, does he look good. I especially like the way the cloak (not cape) is shaped to account for his forward leg/knee. And of course, the iconic hand position, which I think […]
