My favorite movies to go see at the theater are ones featuring building-sized robots that cause massive destruction (ie. ‘Transformers’), so if something like the Sci-Fi Stuffs Model was appearing in the next blockbuster, I would definitely go pay the $12 to go see it on the big screen.
Designed by Angelo Ferretti, the Sci-Fi Stuffs Model reminds me of something I would have loved to play with as a kid. I always had an affinity for big mechanical death machines, so something like this would have been right up my alley. Who am I kidding? I’d still play with it now.
