Great videos!

Any plans for adding some sound, too?

Are you running the lights under or through the clear tube?

A bit of both. I put some black shrink wrap on the cluster of 4 that will
Run in the tube to the tip on the bottom. The chasers I plan to
Have underneath or if that doesn't work I'll drill into the tube and seat them within the wall.

Screen grab
Of Cy's vacuformed pistol, take note of the softer detail and where the plastic spanned some detail.

Those scenes were simply great!

The Leader was voiced by Ted Cassidy (Lurch of "The Adam(a)s Family" ha, little joke! :lol: ) in this scenes, before Patrick Macnee assumed the role.

Personally, I think Cassidy's voice was more suitable so they should have kept him as the Leaders' voice actor...

I like the scene when the garrison leader is
Talking to the imperious leader in the crystal ball. Image
