Dude... sorry to hear about the Thunderhawk.  That is so totally NOT COOL that they packaged what is obviously a fragile model with weights. 


Yeah, I'm a bit peeved.  It did, however, inspire an idea for a Dark Heresy adventure that would take place during the 41st Millenium.

I need to take pictures of the thing, just for my own personal records of before and after I fix it.  I was considering doing some upgrades anyway so this might wind up for the best.  I mean it would be hard to screw it up any further!

Not sure where the old Dr. Pepper plant was, but I don't think it moved near there.  It's Mockingbird and... dammit... that street... two or three major intersections east of 75.  Crappy location, but more room.  Pain in the BACK-SIDE to mop the floors in that place, too.

Sorry for the double post but I just noticed your preferred gaming store.  God how I miss Lone Star Comics!  It is the gold standard that I judge all others by and so far only a very few have come close.  The Plano location was nice but my fave was always the one out by Town East mall.  That was a bit of a hike so the one I frequented most was the one off of Preston rd. 


From Plano, really, but when people get "that look" I say North Dallas.  You know how it is.  Friggin plano jackasses!  And I worked at Lonestar for about a year (check it out in my blog).  The one offa Preston got moved Mockingbird offa 75.  Yeah.  Across friggin town.
