steel_tiger1 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Has Zactoman been abducted? Rumors are circulating. Some believe aliens, others believe government coverup. The discussions in dark basements have Zactoman tied to an intercontinental resin conspiricy, in an effort to drive up prices of necklace beads and plastic turtles. When contacted for comment Washington chiefs of staff simply declined comment, citing security issues. When pressed they did admit to being in close contact with the Russians. Head Intergalactic representatives refuse to comment citing need to know basis, although off record admitted that that they had recently shipped a few cases of tinfoil hats to Montana but refused to say whether that was a related issue. So the mystery remains where has Zactoman gone? Has he fled to another country seeking political assylum? Perhaps headed higher up into the mountains of Montana giving squatch hunters guided tours of the spacecraft wreck site? Maybe he's out in the Gulf of Mexico searching for the source of USO's. Maybe just maybe he's been working on the F14 intakes and they are just about ready ship, and that why he has been mysteriously inactive lately. One thing this reporter knows for sure, he hasn't been very active here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Firecaptain Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Everyone knows he's really working on the UB and MKK canopies.......they were BTTR (Before Trumpeter Tomcat Release)...lol Maybe just maybe he's been working on the F14 intakes and they are just about ready ship, and that why he has been mysteriously inactive lately.

steel_tiger1 Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 .....This just in confidential sources have been reporting that there may be more to the story of the Russian connection than previously thought. An inside source has revealed that Zactoman may be in direct contact with a Russian code name Eastern. Perhaps these two are up to something. We will have to wait and see....... Stay tuned to this thread for breaking news..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DutyCat Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Well, I for one will be glad when the Trumpy replacement intakes are done. I won't start the kit until I have them in hand. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zactoman Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Abducted? Well it wasn't aliens or the government and I cannot confirm or deny any relationships with Russians (or the Squatch). Zactowoman has kept me busy with lots of 'honey-do' projects but for the most part I've been in the shop working, a lot... :wacko: When not filling orders I've been busy pouring fresh molds (it's a never ending battle) or trying to work on patterns. Little by little: I'll be updating the F-14 and OH-58 threads soon... Sorry for my absence and I apologize to those who are waiting for PM or e-mail replies. Lately I've just been answering customer inquiries about orders. I'll try to catch up on replies soon, but tonight I have parts to cast... Thanks for the laugh!

dehowie Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Now we are talking...seriously good work. Maybe I should apply for an increase in my credit limit now... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mbittner Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 And here I thought he was working on 1/144 B-52 goodies. Drat! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steel_tiger1 Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 ....Dateline Montana.....Local residents claim to have seen Zactoman as recently as last weekend. One resident claimed that he had spotted Zactoman at local convienence store when he approached Zactoman claimed he couldn't talk now had jobs to do for "Zactowoman". When a search of the database showed no matches for "Zactowoman" this reporter immediately set out on an investigation as to whom this person may be. But no references have come to light, so I can't help but wonder is she some new previously unknown super heroine, or perhaps the leader of a more advanced civilization, a sort of super being? But one thing seems clear, Zactoman is completely defenseless to her super powers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
markiii Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I thought he was quietly working on a large resin jet......my credit card is ready! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zactoman Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I've been in the shop working, a lot... :wacko: When not filling orders I've been busy pouring fresh molds (it's a never ending battle) or trying to work on patterns.

I'll try to catch up on replies soon, but tonight I have parts to cast... Whoa! Déjàvu! Another month gone by. I've become a molding and casting machine. :wacko: F-14 intakes are slowly coming along. The second intake is fully scribed and I'm working on the rivet detail. OH-58D exterior set is still waiting for instructions to be drawn up. I need more hours in the day!

Yasa Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 The only ones interested in abducting him would be Trumpeter! It would be cost effective as they would then know for sure that their canopies, and intakes would be correct!I think they would owe him for work already completed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigobear Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 any word on when those intakes for the f-14 will be done? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zactoman Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 any word on when those intakes for the f-14 will be done? No estimate on release date but I have finished my home-improvement project and the intakes are back on the workbench. I hope to have made enough progress to update the Tomcat thread with some pictures soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
