Rob's Bendix Talos Model

Woodsy,

Here is my build of the Atlantis Models’ Bendix Talos, originally a Revell kit from 1959.

The Talos was a supersonic surface-to-air missile primarily used by the U.S. Navy, designed to carry high explosives and/or nuclear warheads.

The Talos could reach speeds of up to Mach 4, and was operational from 1958 to 1979.

Another “straight out of the box” project, as I might have built it as a teen!

Mystery Monsters

I keep seeing these plastic monsters online. 

There's single colours and also painted ones.

Anyone know what they are? 

Saucerful of Regrets

One of the many things I regret not buying when I saw it was an old porcelain tea cup and saucer in a charity shop years ago.

On the cup in a flourished hand was the the word Vader.

It looked so unusual, the antique cup with such a famous word on it.

In reality it was a Dutch teacup for someone's father aka Vader.

I've never seen another to this day. 

Have you a Star Wars related item you wished you'd bought?

I picked one of these up recently. A great toy and so comfy to wear. Mine's the 2004 edition. Did anyone have one in the late 70's?

Woodsy,

I thought I'd get this out early in preparation for Star Wars Day.

Hi Woodsy,

A bit of nostalgia I picked up from the Coventry toy fair today.

Anyone remember these?

Enjoying Lunar Parks

We've seen a lot of the Blue Box inspired spacecraft on MC over the decades but this Park's Lunar craft is the first red space shuttle with longer wings I reckon. That's new to me.

I love the card art of all three.

I quite like the new look of the shuttle too. Do you?
