No, this one had a kind of meteorite that, when wet, would grow into a tall spire and fall over, smashing into a bunch of smaller pieces that grew into tall spires, fell over and....well, you get the idea. Basically these things kept spreading and were destroying everything in their path.

Anyone remember The Monolith Monsters?

This is a good place to start: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theTARDISownersclub/files/?filter=files There is a Tardis Builders manual download. Not sure if it is the version you want or not. Also check out http://tardisbuilders.com

Great looking helmet design! You might consider integrating a small pc fan somewhere to circulate air through the helmet to keep your face cool and keep the visor from fogging. I did that on my TIE pilot costume and it helps a lot. I put mine in the chest box and used the hoses to pipe it in.

He looks fantastic! Really nice job on the arm! Bruce Dern would be proud!

Good looking pizza boxes! I'm sure your son is thrilled! Looks better than some things I've seen made from more elaborate materials...

Beautiful job! Especially like the detail in the spoiler bays. Always thought that this craft was underappreciated.
