I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve this generosity, but a fellow builder friend was not only kind enough to help me acquire this model (that is exclusively available as Disneyland Paris), but he ended up just giving it to me. And this is not the first time he’s done something like this! Thank […]
News Overload (Over Time)
Once again, much time has passed, and during that time, much news has happened in the realm of the brands that I try to keep up with. This time, there are 10 models to cover, 5 from Metal Earth (but I would hazard that there are at least 3 more implied) and 5 from Piececool. […]
Exclusive: Haunted Mansion (Now in Color!)
Thanks to the tip from frequent commenter Jeff, I can share with you this new Disney Parks Exclusive that I, personally, had not yet seen. I did a comparison between the sheet layouts of the classic silver version, compared to the layout shown on the back of the package, and it looks practically identical. This […]
Build: Millennium Falcon (Exclusive / Mod)
So, when I started out this build, it was not my intent to mod it at all. I just wanted to enjoy myself with a nice, casual Star Wars build. And it’s a classic, with color: the Disney Parks exclusive version of Han’s Millennium Falcon, with a full paint job. When this showed up, I […]
Two New Exclusives Appear
Well, the exclusives have started again. I know there are some of us that do not like exclusives. And there are some that enjoy the hunt. Rather than debating the merits of exclusive models, I’m just going to skip to the part where we can appreciate the designs, and I can let you know where […]
#TT: Disney Castles
If you want some fairly challenging architecture builds, I present this week’s #ThrowbackThursday builds: Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty Castles. These are only available at Disney Parks, and are the classic silver version (new “Now in Color” versions have been released). I’ve also included a follow-up post with comparisons to the D23 ICONX-sized castle. And a […]
#TT: Disney Parks Trio
Man, I really was paranoid about spamming my Facebook timeline with these posts back in the day. For this one, I combined three builds into a single post, all exclusive models from Disney Parks. I also compared them to other models in a followup post, from which I’ve included some pictures. Also, going back to […]
Build: Imperial AT-ATs
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: Droid Depot L3-37
I didn’t really plan this, but it’s completely appropriate that I follow up the build of K-2SO with my other favorite droid from Star Wars: Elthree. I know a lot of people like to bash on Solo, but I rather enjoyed the movie, and L3-37 was definitely a contributing factor. Her personality is just hilarious […]
