LesWalden Posted July 18, 2009 Report Posted July 18, 2009 I'm a fan of walkers. Too bad there aren't more of them in plastic.
papasmurf Posted July 18, 2009 Report Posted July 18, 2009 I like the Star Trek kits, they were fun to build. I built a few smoothies as a kid but as i aged and became infected with AMS, my finished kit tally began to decline. I wanted the darn things perfect. Oh well... I do like the new Polar Lights offerings in 1/1000 scale. The idea of one constant scale is very appealing. You can build a fleet and have a constant scale reference. And the kitbashing opportunities are there as well. I hope Round 2 continues with the 1/350th line...The ships are huge, the wow factor is there...but they eat shelf...er...real estate quickly. Id like to see someone try the Starship Enterprise floating over the Carrier Enterprise in 1/350th scale...that would be impressive. Hi Jon! Yep, seems it was a fairly common rite of modeling, to build Star Trek themes. And trying to get them "perfect", is a disease that still infects me today, 'cause it's near impossible. But trying to is the "challenge", or the "obssession", depending on your viewpoint. Like your "Enterprise's" idea, that would definitely eat up some display space! Welcome to IPMS, and thanks for posting!

Mark Deliduka Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 Well, I'm already slowly working on the Tamiya Enterprise carrier so I'm halfway there kit-wise. All I'd need is a 1/350 scale starship Enterprise.
papasmurf Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 That would be the Polar Lights Refit kit Mark! And, it would indeed be, a very cool display!
