It is always sad to remember that we will never get to chat with those who are no longer with us. It is always fun to remember the friendships that came about through participating in this hobby. It is always good to bring up memories from time to time. These tribute builds are a great way to remember Zod, Cliff, and Carl. My choice for the tribute is this: I have had this kit in the stash for a while, so I thought I would give it a go. I could prolly use some pointers from you 'wingy thingy' builders! LOL I looked back thru CarlRF's threads and found that he built a great looking POGO, so I will attempt to get mine to look half as good as his! The pic below is the end result of Carl's POGO build: I understand we have all year to do these builds, so maybe I can pull this off! Stayed tuned!

Good choice Bucky! I remember seeing one of these as a kid in the Long Beach area. Don't remember exactly where, but it was a static display on a military base.
Kudos to all these memorial builds, an excellent way to remember our Brothers.
P.S. Give Blood, Play Rugby, cause football is for Wimps!!!!!!!!!
