The Giant Leap for Mankind...More Like a Stumble in the Dark.

Sunday, January 21. 2024
My dealings with 1/24 Amphicats goes back over a decade, to when I had picked up one of Jim Small's kits. It was a nice piece, but I was torn on whether I wanted to build it up as a Space: 1999 Moon Buggy or a Banana Splits Banana Buggy, and as a garage kit it was a little dear to buy enough to do both. Round 2 to the rescue, with a repop of their original kit!

It Looks Bad - We're Being Surrounded!

Saturday, January 13. 2024
I had picked up the Diskhound some time ago, having never seen Crusher Joe but liking the look of the mech and happy to see that it was 1/25 scale. It sounded like an impressive machine, too - the box art (loosely translated) spoke of how it chased down infiltrators and escape was nearly impossible once it was on the hunt. Imagine my surprise when I finally watched the movie, only to find it was one of a few mechs that each had a split second of screen time before being blasted to pieces by a sidearm. Still a cool design, at least!
