Richard Bartrop Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I got this as part of a package of Japanese spaceship kits. It's from the series Captain Harlock, but the more I looked at it, the more I saw other possibilities. So I decided to add some styrene sheet fins, and some rocket tubes to turn it into a vintage pulp style space cruiser. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't "Greeblies" those furry little critters from a really old Star Track episode that you should not give water to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 LOL! Those were Tribbles. Greeblies are all the assorted random details added to a model (usually SicFi), to make it more impressive looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
