Engineernerd Builds a Gundam Kit Part 1
This is a new experience for me. So I thought I would take you guys along on the journey. I think calling these model kits is a bit of a misnomer. A model kit to me is something static. Gundam kits, I’m learning are essential DIY action figures. First, I had to pick a scale […]

Gundam Build Fighters
Okay, I’ll probably loose some geek cred for this one, but I’m not a huge anime fan. I will even say that at one time I didn’t realize there was difference between the Gundam and Macross worlds. For years, I never delved into either properly. When I have tried an anime here and there […]
Name That…Zombie (Replay)
Were zombies even a thing when this was originally posted?: Zombie? Mutant? Guy doing the Humpty Dance?
Name That…Block (Replay)
Yup. It’s another one people struggled with. To me, this looks like a manifold for a hydraulic valve. I don’t think it is.
Name That…Round Head (Replay)
Actually, I think with the proliferation of vinyl deformed figures this one maybe harder now than when originally posted.: I really like this one. It turned out better than I hope. Comment away…
Name That…Ray Gun (Replay)
Doesn’t look like this one got ID’d the first time around…try again people. I know what it looks like. But, it’s probably not related.
