I'm going to try something a little bit different with this review and show some pictures of construction and comment on it. After all, building a model kit's one of the most important parts.

"With infinite complacence people went to and fro over the earth about their little affairs, serene in the assurance of their dominion over this small spinning fragment of solar driftwood, which by chance or design man has inherited out of the dark mystery of Time and Space. Yet across an immense ethereal gulf, minds that to our minds as ours are to the beasts in the jungle, intellects vast, cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with envious eyes and slowly and surely drew their plans against us......."

Both endearing and enduring, the Aurora classic monster model kits refuse to die!

Arii’s 1/100 scale Regult Battle Pod from the Super Dimensional Fortress Macross TV Series is a great example. Manufactured and designed in 1982 this kit is one of the better kits from the line that builds up to a great representation of our favorite two-legged cannon fodder monster, although not without some minor faults.

The Space Battleship Yamato craze of the late 70's spawned alot of very interesting toys. Aoshima's Gattai Yamato has to be one of the most unusual I've ever encountered......

The large scale Gundam Exia represents what I feel is a sorely under appreciated area of Gundam plastic models.

An effort in frustration

In my opinion Dygenguar is one of the coolest mecha designs from the wildly popular Super Robot Wars tactical role-playing game series....Well, except the feet.

Kotobukiya tackles Armored Core with their Variable Infinity series of 1/72 plastic models.

Kotobukiya and Fine Molds working together on a Star Wars kit should go together like peanut butter and chocolate. Does the Crosssection 3-D X-Wing Set deliver on that potential? Well, you have to read on for that answer...

The one and only model from the epic live action Gundam movie, and probably the only good part.

Its a review for two in one: the RX-79BD1 and RX-79BD3 the Gundam Blue Destiny. Two of those many underappreciated mobile suits in the Gundam Universe that are variations of one design.

With the impending release of Waves new Destroid model kits I thought I would go back and revisit an old favorite and reevaluate the 1/100 Destroid Defender "Angel Face" kit and see if our little fork-toed friend still holds up to today’s modeling standards.

I had sat on this kit for many years as it was filed away in my “Sci-Fi: Other” bin and I would simply forget that I owned it. I had worked on it off and on over the years but in the last few months I had made it a priority to finish the kit for CollectionDX so I can be ready to build the new Fine Mold’s 1/48 T-47 kit when it is released later next year.

"How could they stop the devouring death...that lived by sucking on living human bones!?"
