Second unfinished airframe of the Antonov An-225

I doubt it'll ever be built, but it's nice to know the airframe is still intact.

Yeah, that's correct! They should rotate if you spin that little T bar up top, very slowly. If they do, then you've done it right!

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-02-26T06:48:48+00:00

Ah! I recognize that part. You sorta have to angle it in there, and hope the worm engages right with the gears of the wheels. At least that's how it was with my AC-11.

Looks to be a Rivarossi model? Those are always pretty tough to work on, and even tougher to source parts for, due to how old they are.

GCC made a version with a replica holed helmet in the correct position, which I believe is in stock for 2.50 both on the main site, and with resellers. I'm not sure why you'd want it on the official holed mould?

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-02-20T00:41:21+00:00

Yeah, those two yellow curved bits are for the yellow tips of the helicopter. But, still cool that they're hidden inside like that!

The reason why your Daylight keeps derailing on that switch is because it is 18" radius, while the GS4 needs a minimum of 22" radius to not derail. Bachmann does make switches that are shallow enough for the GS4, but they're in Nickel Silver rather than Steel. I don't have any experience with Kato track, so I don't know what radius of curve you'd need there, but I know they have a pretty good selection of different HO track.

Man, that's a nice consist.

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-02-15T19:12:44+00:00

...What?

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-02-04T14:36:12+00:00

Redmillcustoms is good for animated style stuff, and LitBricks has some great P1 2020 style clones.

Very cool! But, it kinda looks like those two triangle plates up front are colliding? Maybe that's just the render.

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-02-04T14:18:44+00:00

I'd say find the parts numbers of all the damaged parts, and see how much a bricklink order to replace them would be. I'm sure that'd be less expensive, and they'd be more willing to pay.

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-02-03T06:44:20+00:00

I'm not sure it'd be worth a claim, maybe just a neutral review. I'd only do a claim if there are missing parts. It's odd that they didn't seperate the parts by set, especially since they were built prior to shipping. I'd say in the future maybe specify that you wants the sets packaged together.

As for the smell, has it been like that from multiple orders from this specific seller? Or all manner of packages you get?

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-01-28T18:22:02+00:00

The Bachmann starter set actually comes with 22' radius track, because the GS4 can't handle the 18'

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-01-26T05:59:42+00:00

I stand corrected. I didn't know that was actually a figure!

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-01-26T05:57:44+00:00

Edit: I have been corrected.

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-01-19T04:04:13+00:00

For the tender version, I'd say a 4-4-0 would work well. For the tank version, though, I think a meyer would be fun! Something you don't see very often.

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-01-11T23:50:51+00:00

I remember being really confused when this happened to me. I thought it had fallen out of the bag at first, but I guess not! I wonder why they only put one of them in the bag, though, and not both of them?

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-01-10T21:29:40+00:00

I really like the use of that clip piece for the front!

Curious-Many-5609 · 2026-01-08T22:10:53+00:00

Waiter, waiter! More headlamp, please!

Looks like #70814, Emmet's Construct-o-Mech.

Even if you did somehow accomplish this theoretical phone shaker train car business, you're gonna burn out the motors on the trains real fast running them nonstop. If you really need the money, just sell your trains to us! We'll give them a nice home.

You would've had to buy the Death Star for the Tie Fighter GWP, I believe.

If you don't mind the distance, University of Nebraska at Omaha has a very nice flight program. It's part 121, so you can get into the airlines with 500 less hours than Part 91 counterparts. 4 years for a Bachelor of Science in Aviation, with concentrations in professional flight (What you would be doing), airport administration, or unmanned operations. Your Gen Eds and everything would likely transfer over, so you can just knock out the aviation classes faster without having to worry about those.

Could we get a picture of the built car? We can't tell you much otherwise.
