I have yet to make the photo montage of that, but I will someday. I also think he might look great going on on some G.I. Joe missions!<br /><br />It's amazing that any of these were made! They're wonderful!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00345830456539347899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535833613343533564.post-91441409400177095582011-02-19T17:45:03.124-08:002011-02-19T17:45:03.124-08:00Look at the details we missed by not seeing TOL in...Look at the details we missed by not seeing TOL in color! German Expressionism, my ass.<br /><br />Unfortunately, Krug is obscured by a shadow, so the Ebonite Heart Defibrillator remains a mystery, though I think it's height, were it rendered to scale, ought to poke considerably above the shadow's crest. Perhaps it's unneeded, as Flat Zanti seems ready to administer CPR, ... or, to make romantic overtures to a dying German cosmo-/astro-naut (didn't the Showtime Abortion, what y'all generously call the NOther Limits, broach this daring subject in one of their 42-minute yawners?).<br /><br />And, that strung-up Major Jong is going to need one of Li-Chin Sung's face-rearranging pie plates to make him properly Oriental.hockey24hrshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17665339445715581362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535833613343533564.post-48809287134043600942011-02-19T16:32:05.956-08:002011-02-19T16:32:05.956-08:00Hockey -

And, did you shoot this in B&W . . . <br /><br />1) to mimic the paranoia of the episode?<br /><br />2) as a tribute to Conrad Hall?<br /><br />3) as a budget saver? i.e., you spent so much on color film shooting earlier diorama's, that now SideShow is reeling you in to avoid deficit financing.hockey24hrshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17665339445715581362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535833613343533564.post-14021072997350645302011-02-19T15:17:28.920-08:002011-02-19T15:17:28.920-08:00Wow... a Galaxy Being bust with a light inside! ...Wow... a Galaxy Being bust with a light inside!

And yeah, more: "The Chameleon," the Calcoite from "Fun and Games," Turdo from "...Doomsday" (he'd look great in the microwave), the Chromoite from "The Mice," Koo-Koo the Birdman from "Duplicate Man"....
