    F-19X from Deal of the Century (Greg Jein Auction lot)

    More Photos of the 19" F-19X The intakes are not perfectly flat. They have some louver details in there, but it is very tough to make out since they are painted black. The tiny (about 1/144 scale) studio model measuring around 4" long The small model lacks the empty wing pylons of the...

    F-19X from Deal of the Century (Greg Jein Auction lot)

    At the Greg Jein Auction, I manged to successfully win and acquire lot #89512 which contained six models (two missiles and four jet models). These were from the 1983 movie "Deal of the Century" starring Chevy Chase, Sigourney Weaver and Gregory Hines. In the movie, Hines's character steals the...

    Greg Jein Collection Hero X-Wing & more

    I managed to win lot 89512, the "Deal of the Century" F-19X models. They were delivered on Saturday. I only shot one photo. I will take better ones, once I find my good camera. My current phone camera "sucks". I was chasing this from the moment I got the catalog since this model has design...

    RED ALERT Lost 3 ft TOS Enterprise found????

    I remember the discussions from the old IDIC page. Word got out in the late 1990s to early 2000s that the Roddenberry family (Majel and Rod) considered it "stolen". But I don't believe a police report was ever filed for it. The story of it getting loaned out for Phase 2 reference is a more...

    Large Scale USS Excelsior Class Ships - Whats out there?

    It figures that one should see a meltdown a few days after the anniversary of Chernobyl.

    Large Scale USS Excelsior Class Ships - Whats out there?

    You should know in your gut by now that he won't come clean. If there was anything it would have been revealed by now.

    Large Scale USS Excelsior Class Ships - Whats out there?

    I know you want there to be a product, because you have a lot of money tied up into it. But while there is a chance product exists, it is a very very small chance now and I am pretty sure it has been from day one. This is why I posted my communications when I did. I can't say what you should do...

    Large Scale USS Excelsior Class Ships - Whats out there?

    Been away for awhile, but it is interesting to see something I am somewhat familiar with pop up in my favorite forum, partly because PHA and T2Sides have chimed in. What I am about to discuss took place on FB, and yes I know that should be a separate issue from a RPF Thread. But, given a few...

    "Insignia white" paint-Ok for a base color for M. Falcon model?

    As for additional photos, not really given these Photobucket images are pretty old. Some of the stuff I duplicated over at Facebook, but they are about the same as what I posted to Photobucket back in the day: https://www.facebook.com/jaym.chladek/media_set?set=a.302711899914257&type=3

    "Insignia white" paint-Ok for a base color for M. Falcon model?

    AS-20 US Navy Insignia White would work fine as it is the closest thing I have found in current paint lines to the old Camo gray, but with about 20% of white added to it. It is also a recommended base shade for the DeAgostini Falcon and given the filters/washes and the like that will potentially...

    Bandai 1/144 Y-Wing

    Thanks guys. I have been hooked by these. I decided to get a few more on the way from Japan as the only other kits I have are the T-65 X-Wings. I can't wait to try my hand at the T-70s and the A-Wings.

    Bandai 1/144 Y-Wing

    I recently built one of the mini Bandai vehicle kit 1/144 Y-Wings a couple weeks ago. This was a quickie build, but I had a lot of fun doing it. Almost all the paint work was done with careful spray cans and masking. I didn't want to use the stickers at all, but the die cut excess worked great...

    Customized Revell TLJ A-Wing FINISHED

    Re: Customized Revell TLJ A-Wing WIP Very nice work on the paint! I have been pondering doing something similar, although I plan to do a bit of cutting to re-position certain elements to more closely match the RM concept. As for the scale, yes it is oddball, but it does make for a the perfect...
