To the right of that figure... what in the name of the Many Miraculous Mutons of Mansfield is that?

Seems that what precisely constituted Space Force was a bit fluid, even hurtling toward the release date. Very interesting.

It's very fuzzy but there's also a female character, possibly an officer?, in that pic.

The prototype looked a lot more menacing, than the released toy, with much more powerful looking neck muscles.. in fact.. it was a lot like the U.S. movie version of Godzilla.


P.S.
Sorry I missed it earlier, Mark, happy anniversary wishes to you & Mrs Chop'

And I know this has been asked before, but who now owns the copyright on the AF figures/vehicles - obviously Mr Brechin owns the drawing, but could he commercially produce a new set of AF stuff from these drawings, and would it be under the AF banner?

Hasbro own copyright

Not that I'm aware of, and without sounding sucky, the incentive is to try and get as many people to come, enjoy, which then helps cover the costs of running the event (which is still yet to happen, so guess whose pocket that comes out of) .
Whilst I understand there are always circumstances that prevent folk from attending, your perspective alters somewhat when the majority of the event is your own work and money after 4 years. I want folk to feel they get something special in return for supporting and making the trip, by putting up video/ audio devalues the experience and makes it less of a 'must get there next year' reason to go.

Genuinely not a pop at anyone, but sadly reading through some threads it does feel what is expected of the show is taken a little for granted at times.

At a time when when I'm working out how much I'm exposed for putting on the show, I'd be dismayed at seeing content hosted without contributing anything back and I want to make the show better and stronger, not go backwards, or worse give it up because the costs to me impact being able to survive.

Again not aimed, but trying to put perspective for everyone

Makes sense, dave.
Just bummed I couldn't go again!
Next year hopefully.

Fair enough mate. Really appreciate what you do even though I could'nt attend. I would like to try to get to the next one and maybe show/sell some of my customs. Oh and buy you a beer

Dave drinks Pimms humby so I found out to my dismay.

PIMMS!!!!!!!

Nowt wrong with Pimms... as long as it served in a pint pot!

As per prior discussion, still looks like Brett Ewins, in parts. Different inker?



PS. Hat-tip to BigHatDino.

Only just realised there's another 'Ewins' ad from the time.

Absolutely, hopefully not so far off as he seems to have a draft ready ...

Does anyone know when/if the book is coming out?
