This kit is how I discovered Moebius.

I built this as a kid (Aurora)...this time I had paint, and a little skill...lol

I saw the box and stopped in my tracks.

My moment was seeing a polar lights J2 on some toy website looking for xmas presents for my 6 yr old in 2000.

Welcome to the club!

Thanks, I wish I'd have built a J2 it's coming back.
Here's a better shot. the first one looked much better in photobucket...
I think I might have overdone Jonathan kidd's eyepatch...looks better in person..lol

Nicely done, Steve! That kit is on my pile of 'to build' kits.

I never had it when I was young, but my brother did. For some reason he painted his dark blue :confused: I still thought it looked cool...

I will have to wait until I get home from work to read it, but that looks cool for sure.

Nice work. I might try this one.

Thanks for the nice words guys.

Boy, I need to work on those figures a tad...

Two rules: never post after too many "drinkie winkies" and never shoot pics at 6 in the morning...lol

Had the original kit when I was a kid. Bought the reissue from Moebius a few years ago. It's still in my to-do pile. I really like the design.
