I'm so glad you like it! Yes, it's an EB Games Exclusive and last Christmas I saw one almost by accident and sadly didn't pick it up. One of the very few licensed products that I think is really well done, no copyright text anywhere on it. I still have to find one for me. :lol:

Merry Christmas everyone! Had some festivities yesterday and have more today, so I won't be around much until after all that is done. Looking forward to coming back and seeing some more pics!

Thank you very much, Muddler for the wonderful gifts. :D

Mine arrived just in time! It's a handmade alien tracker with lights and everything - scratch built with misc parts and greeblies. It's awesome - has a great feel to it and makes a really great shelf piece. Thank you so much SS, fantastic work!

Merry Christmas everybody!
Glad it made it there in one piece, and on time no less! I was extremely worried about that connecting rod breaking, especially after my gifts arrived damaged last year. Hope the amount of foam padding I stuffed into the box wasn't too obnoxious!

Edit: here's some more photos of the prop in case anyone's interested:

Here's my SS haul! An awesome GotG mug, and a great Edgar Allan Poe t shirt that I did not yet have in my collection! I didn't see a username on the wrapping, but from the return address I believe my Santa's name is Pete. Thanks a bunch Pete, and Merry Christmas!

Opened my gift today! Thank you so much jtkirk, I absolutely love my gifts. These Bandai kits are awesome and this one has been on my wishlist for awhile. I have some vacation time coming up and can’t wait to get to work on it. We are putting the light switch cover in our TV room. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

I'm SO glad you liked them. I was hoping they were acceptable to you.
MERRY Christmas RPF Bro and many more
 
Opened my box today and discovered a lovely selection of gifts from various interests: A K2-SO mug and LEGO kit, a hand-painted Hellboy mask, and likely my favorite, a horse from Bladerunner 2049.

Many thanks to my (not so) Secret Santa, @zanderman, who also happened to be my first SS recipient some years back. Looking forward to SS 2021 already!

Inside was an arc reactor! Thanks so much Santa, it will fit in nicely among all my helmets!

I'm glad you liked the cookie-cutters. I would deffinetly use a thinner plate of stainless steel if I had to do it all over. Shaping 2mm thick steel proved to be quite difficult.

I really enjoyed the gift you made. I received a biohazard case containing samples of dino-dna and an insect enclosed in amber, yet to be examined. I also received a Lab technician pass approved for security level 1 and a nice Christmas card.

Thank you very much, Muddler for the wonderful gifts. :D
Great that you like the assembly! I've always wanted to recreate the DNA-vials from the original movie. And now that I found some lab-containers in about the right size I just had to go for it.

Regarding your cookie-cutters: I actually think the 2mm steel is perfect, because they are sturdy enough to cut thicker pieces of cookie-dough. And the kids won't be able to break the forms too easily... ;)
Thanks again and have a good start into 2021!
 
Hey everyone! My Secret Santa helped scratch my Mandalorian itch this year with some amazing homemade goodness! I received a Vibro blade, Marshal badge, and Beskar ingot all made of wood and all beautifully painted. I absolutely love all of them and they're all right up my alley. The Beskar ingot was hydro-dipped to give it an amazing Damascus appearance. The blade has a beautiful weathered look and the badge is all kinds of golden goodness with a hand painted ribbon.

Thank you so much to my Secret Santa (Cedarock)! I can't wait to put these on display with the Mando display I've been doing! And as always, thanks again to Michael Bergeron for doing this again each year!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone!
