Armorcast Battletech Mad Dog (Vulture) 1/60 2 comments
Classic Battletech is the quintessential American-born giant robot franchise, spanning tabletop games, video games, toys, books, role playing games, a cartoon series, and large-scale models. Armorcast made three battlemech kits in 1/60 (28mm) scale a few years back, the Timber Wolf (Mad Cat), Mad Dog (Vulture), and the Atlas, pretty much the three most iconic Battletech designs. These kits have been out of print for a while, but if you can find them they are quite good. Solid detail, simple construction, and a couple of white metal detail parts on each make them rugged and impressive kits worthy of display.
The Vulture is a solid all around mech, capable of providing long-range fire support with its Long Range Missile racks and Large Pulse Lasers, as well as fighting at mid-range with Large and Medium Pulse Lasers. Its sleek design really stands out among the usual bulky and blocky Battletech fare.

I was given a fun little mecha kit from a video game to review on CollectionDX. You can check out the full review there, but here’s the painted pics for my site.
Dougram! Leave a comment
Just messing around with some new acquisitions… Takara’s 1/72 dual-model Dougram figures. Die-cast skeletons with plastic armor parts and fantastic articulation and detail make for a win in my book.
Hot Toys Iron Man MkI and 1/6 World War Robot Square Leave a comment
Snapped some shots messing with some 1/6 toys tonight… I’ve finally been bitten by the 3A Ashley Wood toy bug, so expect lots of and lots of 1/12 Bramble pics when mine comes in.
East Coast Chogokin Summit Haul pt 1 Leave a comment
Two of my pickups from the awesome East Coast Chogokin Summit this weekend! Onda Jeeg is an elusive and funky cheapie figure, and the Magnemo Acroyear is part of a massive Magnemo set that was a gift from the gracious host.
Max Toy Co Potatoes in Action… Leave a comment
Had some unbelievably overgrown yams that were just begging to meet their role models. Too bad I’m still waiting on the new Eyezon minis, as they would have fit in perfectly!
Shelves Update and JP G1 Haul Leave a comment
My latest package from Japan showed up, filling in some big holes in my collection, including a MIB Metalhawk, Dezaras, and Micromaster Rabbicrater, the figure that was exclusively packed in with the original Zone OVA VHS!
Shelf Updates Leave a comment
Pics of my shelves seem to have become pretty popular, so here’s an update including much better pics of my vinyl shelves, and the bottom shelf totally redone with my TF big-guns in anticipation of some new stuff coming! Right now I’m loving the Max Toy Co and glow display on my nightstand.
