I went ahead and placed an order for this book: 
[Link] I'm guessing it is very much the MACROSS and GUNDAM books that puts the fictional mechas into photo-realistic environments.

Max Factory is coming out with a Figma version of Indiana Jones: [Collection DX Link] The face kinda looks like Harrison Ford as done for one of Gerry Anderson's Supermarionation productions...

Wow, Eaglemoss have been busy this year. This looks like it could be a great series, especially with the premium subscription, although I wonder how often you get the vehicles. Thunderbird 2 and an Eagle would be the main ones I'd like. http://www.gerry-anderson-collection.com/

It's the same guy who helped me get the DC figurines when I grew impatient for their release this side of The Pond. Sometimes other humans can be useful.

Looks amazing... ...but for the d*** move extraordinaire of making STINGRAY (of all things!) a subscription-exclusive gift. Normally a flagship vehicle from one of the shows would be a regular issue - something large like Cloudbase or obscure-but-cool like a WASP interceptor? Now those'd make for good exclusives, but not something as iconic and must-have as Stingray.
Depends on the quality - ended up passing on the Star Trek stuff, simply because there's equal/better stuff out there. For the Anderson vehicles, there's a lot that doesn't get made (some of the lesser-known things like background Helijets and the Spectrum MSV aren't that well-represented in model form), but then there's stuff like the Takara and Aoshima TB models, which are insane (and insanely expensive!). Might just start harvesting organs until I can get the swanky toys - in the long run, it's a better use of my limited display space.
