And that’s all the pictures we get of it. The Super Hornet is not yet on the official coming soon page, but comes courtesy of the March Metal Earth Newsletter as a Sneak Peek feature. It looks like it’s going to be a fun build to sink your teeth into, though, with all the panels […]
Coming Soon: Tomcat & Black Hawk
Shortly after I posted about the Knight Bus appearing on the Coming Soon page, Metal Earth sent out their monthly newsletter with a sneak peek at an upcoming model, the Black Hawk helicopter. And I completely forgot to post anything about it. But then I check things today, and they’ve added an F-14 Tomcat to […]
Review Build: B-24 Liberator
Big. This model is big. It’s technically not an ICONX / Premium Series model, but it might as well be. I don’t quite know how they managed to make something this big with only 3 classic-size Metal Earth sheets. It’s quite impressive. And it’s gorgeous, too. The camera did not do a great job of […]
Coming Soon: Armor and Twin Tails
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 […]
Build: B-1B Lancer
This one turned out quite a bit bigger than I was expecting. I mean, it’s not huge, but it’s not small either. And it is definitely a unique looking build, as far as the planes I’ve built. It’s long, narrow, sleek, and almost has a haughtiness to it. And those jet engines… those look pretty […]
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 […]
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 […]
CS: Tuskegee, Kawasaki and Infinity
Wow, I’ve been off my game today. I am way late to the party, but feel like I still need to make a post. Metal Earth has updated their Coming Soon page to add the Infinity Gauntlet, the Tuskegee Airmen P-5D Mustang, and the Kawasaki GPz900R models. And, on a slightly less exciting note, they’ve […]
#TT: Spirit of St. Louis and Penny Farthing
Got a short #ThrowbackThursday post this week. Found myself running behind and didn’t have a lot of time to scroll through and find one with a decent level of “review” attributes. But I did find this one, and I really like both of the models here, especially that Penny Farthing – such a unique model. […]
Coming Soon: Hogwarts Castle and Stormbreaker
Hogwarts Castle and Stormbreaker dropping into Coming Soon on the same day? I knew I sensed a disturbance in the Metal Model Hobby, as if hundreds of individuals were greatly pleased. Oh, and they’ve added the Osprey that was teased in the Newsletter. Which is still cool, don’t get me wrong. It’s just in the […]
