    Buck Rogers/Gil Gerard fans take note...

    I hope it's OK to post this here but this is really cool. For those of you who are fans of the Buck Rogers TV series, from 1980, Gil Gerard has announced on Facebook that he has a limited number of 40th Anniversary Acrylic Buck Rogers Pins - previously only available at conventions - available...

    Logan's Run TV Series streaming FREE!

    This little seen, vaguely remembered, Sci-Fi TV series is currently streaming for free at Tbitv. There are commercials but I think worth it because the show has never been repeated much, (Maybe once in the 1990's on TNT). So brush your cobwebs away and have a look at the TV series spawned by the...

    Upscaled 3D printed Galactica Toys

    I hope this is the right place to post this. If not I'll re-post it in the proper Forum. I just discovered this guy and his models/toys on FB and in Youtube reviews. He has up-scaled the Mattel Galactica toys: Viper, Cylon and Landram, (Landram is HUGE!) and created for the first time a Viper Mk...

    Last Starfighters reboot art teaser on Youtube

    This has some pieces of art Gary Whitta was posting a few years ago and many I've not seen. Plus it's all accompanied by a new, and very stirring, rendition of the terrific Greg Safan Theme. Probably worth a few minutes of your time:

    Salvage 1 Vulture find!

    Hi! I have the print-out of this rocket from the very enjoyable Salvage 1 TV series but never could figure out where I got it from. I did some searching on the web and actually found it's still available from the original site - tho the site is now defunct. The plans were made by Patrick...

    Buck Rogers TV Companion book.

    This came out in 2015 and I just found out about it. I mention it in case anyone didn't know about it. Not sure if there is any photo-reference on models or SPFX tho. Looks like a good read in any case. Go to the link at Amazon for more info...

    Ralph McQuarrie's U.S.S. Enterprise

    Ralph McQuarrie was asked to give his impressions of what an updated Enterprise might look like for the 1979, Star Trek - The Motion Picture. This is an attempt to re-create one of his concept models using foam board. I was bored with working on the Micronauts ships and wanted to try something...

    Micronauts Un-Produced Prototype Space ship

    I do a lot of modeling in foam board and saw this design on Facebook in the Micronauts group there. This was a proposal for a toy by a designer/artist named Steve Hodges. I like the design a lot and went about making models as close as I could to the design as well as variants. I have no pattern...

    Another Buck Rogers Laser Gun

    I've been away for a while so I hope this is a new discovery. I was browsing eBay and found these 2 curious stills of Gil Gerard as Buck Rogers sporting another laser gun-not seen in any TV episode. Just thought I'd bring it to the attention of our Buck Rogers laser gun designers: A pretty...
