Cue the Theremin! Being a huge Tim Burton fan and loving the Mars Attacks movie from the 90s I was somehow oblivious to the fact that everything was based around a set of 55 Topps trading cards from 1962. I did collect bubble gum cards as a kid, Star Wars, Black hole, Garbage Pail Kids etc but these were way before my time. So when I saw this book for sale. I was intrigued and purchased it. This started me down the rabbit hole and boy I’m glad I’m not a card collector. 😬💸 Fortunately I’m a modeller so my outlay is rather small to scratch my Martian itch. Here’s the Box of goodness! It’s a pretty big model and the moulding looks fantastic! It’s strangely made in different types of plastic but I guess that’s ok. Not that many bits but I’m looking forward more to the painting. I also have a bunch of LEDs, wires and what not so I might have the lamp post light up too. 💡 The instructions although made in 2020 look’s like they’re straight from the 60s. Being used to aeroplane kits I’m used to a high step count in the instructions but this is next level. Four whole steps. 🤣 I’m sure I’ll be adding a few 3D printed bits and a bit of scratch modelling but it’s going to be a whole heap of fun. Please join me if you will on a bit of Martian adventure. It’ll be a blast!!!! until next time! Happy modelling chums. Johnny
