Well, it's a big step but my Hasbro Legacy Collection 'Big Millenium Falcon' is up on eBay.

I've sold loads of stuff before but this one feels like a watershed moment.

Wowzers.

Field #archery today. Traipsing through misty woods carrying your bow, shooting at (and hitting) foam targets is just awesome.

As usual when shooting Field, no sights, no stabilisers. Just me using the Force.

And yes, I 100% went for the standing bears nuts...

FAKE.

The red background logo wasn't introduced until 1983, almost 10 years after this pic.

What?

Metal Gear Solid Live at the Royal Albert Hall! Intermission right now, good so far, but next up is MGS & MGS2 (which I consider to be musically the strongest thematically) so am proper excited.

There is a Calvin & Hobbes strip from back in the day, where Calvin is making a model aeroplane.

He is frustrated, gets glue everywhere, & the end result looks very little like the box pictures.

Today Calvin is me, I am Calvin.

I'm afraid I do disagree, Sonic Attack Jet FTW.

Look at that blue!

Any excuse to break out this pic again!

Self reflection at #archery today.

The longer I hold at full draw the worse my shot will be. So I shot whole session with a Metronome under strict timing.

By the end shooting was much better, five 10's & one 8 at 30m (at a 80cm target, so ten ring is 8cm in diameter).

Hope this lesson sinks in!

These are the last 2 #Transformers toys I have brought (um, not the LAST, the latest).

Both are Megatron, but one was £5.99 from Home Bargains (weighing 135g) & one cost almost TEN times as much from Smyths (weighing 209g).

Can you tell which is which? Home Bargains is better value (by weight).

Air Rifle shooting (10m) at Calshot yesterday!

Scored very well on 1st round, 49/50 but 1st shot went off early.

2nd round smaller target, still scored 49/50!

Super hard last round. Shot has to be ALL in coloured hole & not touch outer black ring to count, 3/5.

Great fun! #Archery must help.

FUCK OFF McDonalds.

That look like a Hamburger Happy Meal to you?

Shot 30yd 252 yesterday in Barebow mode. Scored 252 which is well above the 189 required for Barebow. Good result after being away for 3 weeks.

Afterward I shot the full bow (sight, stabilisers) at 40yds (to ease back in) then 80yd practice.

80yds could be better but no misses!

Very light on the #TFN2025 haul so far. Did find a 2014 Market 6 Legion/Legends Starscream though!

I have it on good authority his Grandfather came from the Isle of Dogs to London in 1939.

At #archery today I needed to adjust;

-my sight rail roll axis
-loose sight block screw
-arrow rest (as it was set for my thicker Field arrows)

But after all that 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 9 at 40yds & no misses at 80yds!

Did I get groups like that at 80yds?

Course not.

Shot an Introduction to Field #Archery today! Hampered by break down on the way there (crapped out battery) but fixed by the AA & only 1.5hrs late.

Shoot Instinctive Barebow when I do Field (no sights/stabilisers) which is a totally different shooting style. Only missed 3 out of 24 targets!

Fun!

Just watched Fantastic Four: First Steps in 3D (only 5 of us in the cinema!). Very good, between that & Superman, superhero films are well represented at the mo'.

Projector failed 2/3's through, had to go out & ask them to fix it. Got 2 free Tango Ice Bursts out of it though.

LOL. I found Transformers Cybertron on Amazon Prime.

S1E1, Prime jumps off the top of the screen and comes back as the firetruck.

Come back Michael Bay, all is forgiven

If you hit yourself regularly don't be brave & stick with it. You will develop a flinch reflex where you will anticipate pain upon release whoch will ruin your accuracy.

Ask your coaches for methods to move your wrist out of the way, one is how you hold the bow, like in the pic.
