The Toy PKD Blaster arrived within 48 hours. Looking at the package, I can tell that for a Toy, it is huge. Nevertheless, I am quite happy with it. So, here’s a quick look at the Toy before I start planning on what to do with it. I mean, proper sampled sound from the Movie […]

20260210 Razor Crest The Demo Unit
Its been more than 6 months since I last touched this Project. For those who are not familiar, this is the lighting system designed to fit into either the AMT or Revell’s Razor Crest, the Mandalorian’s Spaceship in 1/48th scale. So near, yet so far I plan to have it released by April this year […]
