Looks like an enormous project. I think I remember those lazer blazers and the fact yearbook!

Both antique mall finds, I had never seen the stickers before, they are really neat!

Small update:

Semi gloss clear on the shrooms.

Working on the pilots.

Masking off the pylons for grey paint.

I finished the canopy. Cutting vacuform is not my strong suit, in fact I am terrible at it. I am just dry fitting the canopy.

I see you're working on the pilots. Does that mean you intend to display this as a model, or do you want to convert it for GI Joe use? Just curious, because your work is amazing and fascinating, I just assumed you were making this for Joes.

Thanks. The pilots came with the kit, I figured I would make them. I have a very large 1:18 scale collection. I will use it for both Joe and real world.
