So… it seemed an appropriate time to build this model last week. Because I built it to give to my wife. It was going to be a surprise Valentine’s gift, but then one of my kids came over and saw me working (most of the time my wife doesn’t end up over in the corner […]
Coming Soon: Two Fancy Vehicles From Piececool
Usually this time of year is quiet, but both Piececool and Fascinations are bucking trends. Today, it’s Piececool, which dropped these two rather ornate and detailed models. First up is The Wind Breaker, a ship that seems like it should sink with how much it is weighed down by insane amounts of… well, everything! Not […]
So Much News. So Much Behind.
Alright, I’ll admit it. The holiday season got me good, and I have been swamped with other life stuff. So I’m way behind on news. Eight models behind, in fact. So… yeah, this is gonna be a lot. In no order whatsoever, here’s what’s been happening in Metal Earth and Piececool news, as far as […]
Build: Killen and Banas
I am finally finishing up the Piececool Q-Series models of the Three Kingdoms characters. And I’m guessing that it will also just be finishing up the Q-Series in general, because it doesn’t seem like that line is destined to receive any additions in the future. But boy-howdy did I save the best for last. I […]
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 […]
Build: K-2SO (Piececool)
Oh. My. Word. The matte finish really, really works on this model. Also, this model is awesome! And solid, thanks to all the cylinders. It’s great to have a giant version of my second favorite droid, and it looks great! I think the larger size of this model makes it a lot easier to get […]
News Roundup!
So… guess who’s been a bit busy with life?!? Yeah, that would be me. Sorry I’ve fallen behind and missed posting about these three models, so you probably have already heard about them. Such is life when life gets in the way of life. What we have here is a teaser of the S-64 Skycrane […]
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 […]
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, […]
