"Isn't perfect" is being a bit generous. I pre-ordered 2 as soon as they were available based on the pre-production/prototypes, and photos on their website...which actually looked good. What I got was pretty disappointing. I can't even improve it by weathering as it has the horrible looking...

Son of a... The grip screws look like they're plain old slotted screws and the kobold/d-ring looks like hex socket cap screws... Edit: on second look, the kobold/d-ring still looks like rivets based on the head profile, but the center looks like it has angles, almost like the hole part (dunno...

Jurassic Park 3. It was as big of a steaming pile of excrement as the one they found the ringing sat phone in. Spiderman 3. Really, really bad. Unbreakable. More like unbearable. One and a half hours of misery...it gets good for 10 minutes, then ends. Dracula Dead and Loving it. Freddy got...

Nice weathering!

Seriously, a kit would be awesome.

Re: My theater and prop room collection many photos!! Wow! Impressive collection and an even more impressive setup you have. The room is organized perfectly...great job.

Awesome. I'll be following this one closely. I'm collecting parts now for my own holy grail Lightsaber build, but I'm doing the ESB Wampa disarmer. What did you use to clean and polish your graflex?

Now I'm wondering if he was really going into Tosche Station to pickup some power converters...maybe he had plans to head to a poetry reading somewhere.

Attached the few pictures that I took. Sorry they're kinda crappy, only brought my cell phone that day...

Re: Zack Snyder (Man of Steel) is developing a Star Wars samurai movie for Lucasfilm! Thank god this is false, it sounds effing awful.

This year looks a bit better than last to me. Kick-Ass 2 is at the top of my list, followed by Oz, Man of Steel, Great Gatsby, Anchorman 2, Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug, Oblivion (even with Tom Cruise), After Earth... What's with all the re-releases in 3D? I refuse to see any of them, aside...

For those of you in the LA area, the Petersen Automotive Museum has a section of the upstairs portion dedicated to the film. Screen used cars and a limited number of props. I took a few pictures of some of the props with my cell camera.

Dark Knight Rises Looper Skyfall I liked many others on the list, but these three left me saying "WOW" after having watched them. DKR gets my first place vote due to the fact that there was a great deal of anticipation and high expectations with the movie, and it delivered. Movies on the list...

Loved JP1, really liked JP2 (don't know why it gets such a bum rap, other than the stupid uneven bars, kicking the Velociraptor in the face scene), and hated JP3. Hopefully JP4 will incorporate some type of story and character development like JP1 and JP2. I honestly couldn't have cared less...

The aged base looks awesome. Using the hammer as the helmet stand takes it to another level. I vote for using the hammer.
