Default The New Phone Book's Here!!!!

I'M SOMEBODY!!!
Okay, this has nothing to do with the phone book. I stuck an entry in the EMRR NASROC contest and placed 6th. My entry was the Astron Raceman and can be seen here:http://www.rocketreviews.com/contest_current.shtml
Like I said, I hope the King has a sense of humor. Anyway, my turn came to pick a prize tonight and I was shocked to find a Q-Modeling MRS-Rogue on the list of prizes. I grabbed it without a second thought. I've always been a Rogue fan since Steve Moeves built one back in 1977 and I'm curious as to how the Q-Modeling kits build. Not bad for an admittedly cheesy entry.
I will now attempt to remain humble as you heap praise on me.....

Booooo! DEI, booooo!

Where's the DuPont colors and #24?



P.S. - Good choice on the kit though. I think that's close to a $50 kit!

Don't get your thong in a wad, Rainbow Boy. I'm not a Gordon fan. (Jeff or Robby.)
Actually I can take or leave the series these days. That's why I went retro.

I couldn't believe that the Rogue was still there when I chose. Pete Alway's Astrobee was also available, and that was another on my wish list. Guess I'll have to save up for that one.

Yeah, those are both *way* cool.

Unfortunately, when I entered the EMRR "Mars Endurance Base" contest last year,

Bob Cox had already snapped up the MRS-WAC Corporal.

Besides, it should go nicely with your "Rouge":

24mm "Stars and Bars" (far left, under Mona Lisa with moustache) that I have yet to build. I need to scan the pattern first, since it's so stinkin' cool.

You should talk to this guy I know who uses them in BT-60 upscales of stuff like the Estes Atlantis and Odyssey.

Robby is a jagoff. Did you watch that NASCAR reality show on FX called NASCAR 360? I really liked that. Anyhow, they followed Robby around one week so you got to see how conceited he really is.
