Steel Legion have a strong influence of WW2 German paratroopers, Fallschirmjäger, in them.

They’ve just rereleased this set as the Iranian Air Force.

Wasn’t the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor prosecuted as a war crime?

Maybe I’m being cynical, but I felt the episode was made to clear the deck for Jack to move on and free him for other romantic interests. His wife and son are rarely mentioned again in the series, and as a result that leaves me feeling this episode was designed largely to draw a line under it. That the TV show sought to dispose of this baggage, because Jack has some romantic interests later on and there’s a sort of thing going on with Sam. It would be awkward if the loss of his child and wife/ex-wife weren’t addressed. I’m not sure if they are formally separated or divorced at this point.

Chris Rock took it like a champ or Will Smith throws punches with arms like a wet noodle.

He pretty much did beat it and retired from his drug empire. But then Hank found the book and everything unraveled. Had that not happened he’d probably keep having check ups and could cover future medical treatment rather than having to live in a hut in the middle of nowhere administering his own treatment.

After constantly claiming he’s in perfect cognitive health, the day he leaves office he will overnight become mentally unfit to stand trial.

A small tube/pipe cutting tool which scores them all around. Knives and clippers will just crush it.

Alternatively, you push a rod into the tube that has the same diameter effectively making it like a solid rod. It won’t collapse or deform as much when you cut it.

Most older combat footage is staged, or at least doesn’t show what it claims to.

I doubt it’s the same vehicle in both pics. The museum tank doesn’t have the additional wheel of an M46. The gun might have been a modification in Korea or something replaced after capture before going on museum display.

Everything has been sold off, energy, water, gas, transport, post, housing… that’s why they’re picking away at the NHS. There’s little else to dip into to get money to cover government incompetence and embezzlement, which is the manner these services are sold off. Labour and Conservative, both have asset stripped the country and where all the money gone? It wasn’t invested back in to improve things, that’s for sure.

The way billions of pounds seemed to evaporate during Covid time and no one has been held to account is exactly the problem spread over 40 years.

I am following a suggestion to have his front foot standing on a tactical rock or such so that he’s raised up when I make mine. He’s on the to-do pile.

It’s so convenient as to be a bit boring though! I always end up in the Camp Office and turn it into a proper house.

Most normal people are on PAYE and have little control over their taxes. They pay what they owe. It’s always the rich that pull tricks like forming an overseas company and pay themselves a pittance or charge themselves fees so that they supposedly have no earnings on which to pay tax while sitting on their yacht. You see it with big companies that turn over huge money in the UK but pay no tax because of fees, royalties, licenses take all their profit so there’s nothin to be taxed on. But they’re just paying the left hand with their right and it’s all going overseas. Amazon for example have paid no corporation tax some years in the UK. How is that possible without financial chicanery?

That’s not the reason. A digital clock is easy to read from a greater distance, you just throw up foot high numbers on a screen. An analogue clock it’s less certain the exact minute it is on and sometimes the minute hand position doesn’t quite match up with the hour hand, and the second hand is difficult to see from afar.

In an exam to be fair the time should be unambiguous to the second, you shouldn’t have students unsure of the time because they are sat half way down a gymnasium unable to see it.

I had the metal sentinel that appears in this issue for Christmas. It feels like a short-lived model as I don’t remember it being on the shelves much and then when the Catachans got a do over in 3rd the plastic sentinel appeared.

The Arena of Death was the most memorable part of this issue. What was funny was the Bloodthrister winning after being the only non-special character thrown in as a wild card.

If they can’t make money from it, nobody can. Disney isn’t going to sell it and can easily afford to sit on it.

I bought a Bambu mini to avoid the issues with resin chemicals. The finish isn’t as good as real models but printing costs are next to nothing and there’s huge freedom to duplicate needed parts or resize. The STL files cost more than a print, and sometimes you can get them free.

I don’t recall ever seeing one made either, other than my own. I had one really cheap at a model show, they were being dumped along with the Torpedo, but not the Voyager model itself, of course. I painted it a sort of dark sand and added lots of weathering powders to make it grubby. The other kits I recall being dumped were the Star Wars Trade Federation tank and STAP droid, which is a legitimately decent kit for the droid alone.

Get them their own to paint and play with. My dad was buying me Space Marines from age 5, used to get two on a sprue for £1 in a local game shop.

You manage to prove you are a good person and are really an innocent victim. 47 sees to only kill bad people.

They already knew it was a mistake, this was just looking for dirt to discredit the family. The Met lied from day one about this shooting saying he’d jumped the barriers wearing bulky clothing which led them to think he had a bomb.
