    For me, The Flagg had an almost mythical quality to it. No one ever actually saw one, but someone knew some one else who had one.

      Oh I hear ya there! I actually had a friend as a kid who had one…and he always treated it like it was ‘in his way’. He’d walk across it and such.

    Hey CHADSTER, looks awesome. Those lights were originally made as VALVE CAPS for BMX bikes and cars. TIRE FLYS is a brand and WALMART also had a brand. You could also get flashing versions. I have a set of TIRE FLYS that change from red to white to blue in a strobe pattern.

    Your precision with the work associated with the modifications is clearly on par with your love for the toy. The music was very fitting, and the how to method was done well, no room for questions, just a very to the point.
    And of course there's the stock footage of a carrier in it's element.
    Well done Chad, and thank you.

    That mast is dope! Love the detail work you added to it for that color pop. The USS Flagg is definitely as you described it, a grail, and truly one of the most amazing playsets in history. Are the lights the same ones sold on Raise the Flagg? Those gels are awesome for custom stuff, used those after your recommendation for my custom Super Mamba. Your 8 & 5 flags came out great! Really appreciate the explanation down to the exact products you use. I prefer the lights on both sides of the crows nest too! Side note, that Phalanx CIWS is awesome up there too! Have an awesome day broham! ❤
