Frank and Norm take on a new challenge in this week of painting! We both open up a new Star Wars Wampa figure and try our hand at giving it a new paint job. What does a Wampa need? More blood and gore in its mouth! (Follow along the rest of the week by joining the Tested Premium member community!)

Questions for Adam! – Still Untitled: The Adam Savage Project – 11/10/15

(The second podcast from our trip to Alcatraz will be up in a couple weeks. It’ll be worth the wait!)
Tested at BrickCon 2015: LEGO Mouse Guard Display
