Man, what beautiful work!
Just the other day, I was reading some articles about the new Altair Lunar Lander that's under development by NASA, and lamented that it still didn't look as cool as the Eagles:

Back when the show was on the air, I had problems with the Eagle design being able to reenter a planet's atmosphere without being damaged, but as a spacecraft it was a very believable design. Thanks for sharing, JB!

I'd be very interested in those die-casts...
(The re-mortgaging of the house we did last year makes my threshold very
low. Hopefully I pick up some more choice assignments and bring in a little
mad money this spring.)

I know I'm a little late to the party (see page 153)
But I finally got my Marrina today. Love it!
I think it is so cool that Randy Bowen made busts of all eight of the original members of Alpha Flight. I wonder what Mr Maddox will sculpt next?

Without having to look at 157 pages for the first time, anyone know where the references to Buffy & Angel Figurine Collection would be?

Marina looks wonderful! And, since I am reminded of the Buffy/Angel figurines, wouldn't Lost or Heroes or Galactica make for a great source of inspiration for new lines of those figurines? I would have n more room to put them in, but they would look wonderful!!!!

Nice Spider-Woman. The Jessica Drew S-W would rank fairly high among my favorite super-heroes, even though I've read very little of her adventures. She, along with She-Hulk, show that at one point Marvel had a good ability to make their "knock off" characters still manage to be unique -- unlike DC, which tended to just change the age and/or gender of existing characters (Superboy/girl, Wonder Girl, Aqualad, etc).
