Another one from the old box of toys: the MPC Snowspeeder, built in early 80's.
This one was a cool pup, I've always liked the speeder. Despite their wonky aerodynamics (for atmospheric flight) they sure seemed agile and fast. I've often wondered what kind of sound these would make if actually flown really fast, with all the turbulence from the angular shapes they must be pretty loud.

This Baynard Police officer is almost an hour past "No crime time", stuck on a property damage roll-over, but when he sees one of the best local hook drivers show up, he's knows it won't be long now before the scene is all clear.

It became apparent in the early 2000s that the over 40 year old Nimitz Class design was in need of replacement. In 2005, Newport News Shipbuilding was awarded a contract to begin development on America’s newest class of super carriers. In 2009, she was laid down. By mid 2013, she was structurally complete. At the end of the year, she was christened. In 2017, she was commissioned, replacing the 56 year old USS Enterprise CVN-65. On July 28, 2017; the first arrested landings and catapult launch took place. As of 2021, the ship is still under going testing and troubleshooting of its electromagnetic launch system. For this reason, the ship has not yet been deemed combat ready.
Some design improvements over the Nimitz include: increased flight deck space as a result of moving and shrinking the island and eliminating lift 3, electromagnetic catapults, new phased-array radars built into the island, and a more efficient power plant.

I kept the draft and bow from the Reagan (minus the bulbous bow), and rebuilt everything else from scratch. This model is actually about 200 pieces more than the Reagan. I also cleaned up the internal structure. And just like the Reagan, it was a blast to design.

It's probably nothing, but maybe someone just couldn't wait for one of those cartoon map pamphlets with all those valuable coupons inside.

A closeup of a Malaysia Airlines' Airbus A330-300 scale model in the MAS Golden Club lounge at the Kota Kinabalu International Airport. This photo was taken almost two years ago that I had forgotten about it.
At first glance I thought it was a scaled down replica of the Boeing 777-200ER but a scrutiny of the fuselage livery and the cockpit windows shows that this is a model of the Airbus A330-300.
