    That looks amazing! The fandom needs more diorama playsets like this! Good luck on your nemesis underwater base! (Will it be in a fishtank?!)

    This makes me so happy. what an amazing play set. Had this come out in 1985 I would've been the best behaved kid on the planet for a chance to get it!

    now that I'm an adult, I'm finding where you live and breaking into your house.

    Where's the video, I can't see it, but others are posting like they have.

    Looks beautiful in the first pic, FWIW. Fantastic job.

    Wow!!! The Ark base looks awesome. Never thought to use expanding foam to make the mountainside. The Nemesis looks great too.

    Not expanding foam. Blue insulation foam board from Lowes. Glued together with wood glue and formed using bread knife and various other knives and picks.

    Looks epic! The electronics are swanky and the icing on the cake is the WST Soundwave discreetly plugged into Teletran 1. And just like the cartoon, nobody seems to notice him. ;)
