I'm always on the lookout for models of oddball subjects, and I've definitely found one here. Arii made a range of these caricature figures of Japanese women's wrestling stars, possibly with fighting actions.
Should I buy one and do a build video?
Every so often, I have to miss a week of posting a video. Next week may be one of those. I don't think I have all the footage I need, and I can't get at the modelling table until the new computer desk has gone upstairs. Which can't be done until the old one is dismantled....
The Kaiju No.8 anime premieres this weekend, and I've got the bad boy himself coming my way from HLJ. Unboxing and build video as soon after it arrives as I can manage.

This week's video was going to be super short (not Shorts short, but only a few minutes). I've got the footage shot, and it's sitting on a timeline in HitFilm, but I've just not got it trimmed down. I guess December's got to me.....
On the plus side, it's the Manchester Model Railway show this weekend, so I should have a video from that up next week. And maybe I'll get this week's vid up then as well.
One of my upcoming build plans is a good old fashioned car chase featuring these three (but not with those stickers and colours). One car with the good guy(s) in it, being chased by two cars of bad guys. The GTO is definitely a bad guy car (sorry Pontiac folk, but it's too menacing looking not to be). So, which of the other two should also be a baddie vehicle?
I've pushed two topical builds to the top of the pile. The model for one arrived today. The bits for the other should get here next week.
No model video this week, because I was out and about getting stuff for my other channel. Enjoy a short video of soapbox racing and a Lancaster bomber.
Sharing my modelling obsessions, and shows, events and reference material to inspire my, and your, builds.
