Ya missed it! "May he rest in PIECES!" (Well in this case, a few scattered molecules here and there at least.)

gdangerous idea to do it XD

Ah, the joys of 1/1 scale modelling - finding the genuine uranium tamper, tritium and deuterium capsule for Authenticity Points is /so/ hard these days :)

What concerns me is I know what you're referring to. I made mine out of plastic modeling clay representing the PE-4 in the pattern of a soccer ball.

jajajajaajajajajajaj XDD

...and bonus points for the fur in the wheelchair.

He's right you know - "Doctor Strangefur"! :)

I like "Dr. Strangefuzz" better. "Det yoo haf to tell ze whool VIRLD?"

Well... the Chairman DOES love surprises. :)

Is strange but everytimes i see a nuke, everyone wants to ride it XDXDXD

heheh How I learned to love the bomb ;)

Where does this come from? A guy riding a falling nuke and waving his cowboy hat and screaming in delight? I've seen it couple of times throughout the years and am curious to know where it all originated.

Stanley Kubrick's film, DR STRANGELOVE, OR, HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB, written by Kubrick, Peter George and Terry Southern.

The character riding the bomb was Major T.J. 'King' Kong, played with disturbing conviction by Slim Pickens.

Thank you Mister DQ405. You saved me a lot of extra typing!

Dr Strangelove aka How I learned to Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb is were it originated Icelandic Boy. A fact atributed to by Steam with the wheelchaired fur (I'm assuming that's the case).

Dr Strangefur seems to be loving the bomb a bit too much....

Dr. Strangefur really does make this picture work. :)

we all know we'de want to do it too lol if only they didnt have homeland security posted around the parimiter to tackel any fool who tried lol

I stil like the Simpsons episode where there's a deactivated bomb or something, and Homer jumps on top of it to "ride" it, snapped out of his daydream by an attendant clearing his throat and pointing to a sign reading "Please do not ride the bomb."

I remember watching the movie once, but I was young and didn't pay attention. So I don't know anything but the title and the scene at the end, where he had climbed up to get the bomb to drop. Lousy automatic releases...

And just to pick nits, wasn't Slim facing the tail of the bomb as he fell?

Ah haaa!

Um, is the 'Buzz,
wheeet, Buzz' a nod to 'The Mouse That Roared', or jest 'Bomb' noises?

Yes! Yes! (Arms in the air.) There is intelligent Life on the other side of the screen!

I loved that movie...

Went to lose, won by accident...

And is it jest me, or did the 'Q-Bomb' look a lot like an evil toaster?

And thank you for considering me as an intelligent life-form, high praise indeed...

Heh, loved model stuff when I was a kid, last one I did was..I think a 1/72 scale Russian Hokum "Werewolf" of a dual rotor attack heli. Love the picture :) though I've been doing model games rather then straight up models (Seen how Expensive they Got?!) I've always wanted to do those Huge ships with the low scale numbers ^_^

I have always wanted to get that Dragon 1/72nd scale kit of the "Hokum-Werewolf" variant of the soviet attack helicopter, but I couldn't afford it when it was released. If they ever made the kit in 1/35th scale though, I'd buy it in a minute!

Show me when it's done! I'd love to see it, course the prices have like doubled since the..what? last 10 years? *Grumble

BWHAHA! A Classic. Love it.

i would to that tooo... :P

Oh god Awesome sauce! I just saw that movie recently.

The wheelchair fur made me laugh XD

I actually looked at this about an hour ago and had to leave. Funniest thing was as soon as I walked outside a large USAF bomber flew low overhead. Looked like a bulkier B-52 with shorter wings. ( I couldn't properly identify it, though. I know little to nothing about military planes) Talk about coincidental irony XD

tick tick tick tick tick tick tick tick TOCK ohoh !!

Yes. Been there, done that, hopefully won't have to do it again.

ok then couldn't hurt to try though !! ',..,'
