Ross shares his journey from the joyful nostalgia of Star Fleet (aka X-Bomber) to commissioning a 3D printed model of the classic ship itself:

It's been a few days since I finished it, so time for some final, final thoughts on #XBomber!

TL;DR No, the robot name is NOT X-Bomber.

I ordered a 3D printed X-Bomber to go with my Chogokin Dai-X (chances of an official release are slim to none). I asked for it to be painted in line with the studio model from the recent #Xbomber exhibition - looks like he made a spare to sell:

And that was #XBomber!

TBH, of the two puppet based Tokus that feature a final battle between a guy in a suit and puppets, this one is certainly up there with Kawaii Jenny.

Which is to say it's good.

Goddamn it, narrator. #XBomber

Well, that wasn't a rushed conclusion. #XBomber

Truly, Tokusatsu. #XBomber

THE GUY IN A SUIT IS FIGHTING THE PUPPET. #XBomber

She's been god for 5 seconds and the power already went to her head. #XBomber

They just merged together!?

Okay!?? #XBomber

My favorite thing about the Gelma Emperor is that he is literally a guy in a suit. #XBomber

THEY HAVE NIPPLE MISSILES. #XBomber

I love how the Gelma Empire are always outmaneuvered by the Giant Robot.

They just don't know how to fight something like that. #XBomber

Man, your Skull ship sucks. #XBomber

"Time to deploy the Miracle Lights." #XBomber

Feet Laser Cannons! #XBomber

Here's a better plan: crush everything with the giant robot.

It has only worked flawlessly every time you've tried. #XBomber

Professor are you okay. #XBomber

Get rid of that cowards. #XBomber

Today in #XBomber 25, this is is, the final x-bomb(?).

And thus we head off onto the finale. #XBomber

Go for it non-descript battleships, I am sure you won't be destroyed almost immediately. #XBomber

Tokusatsu. #XBomber

I don't think there's such a thing as an anti-electromagnetic current.
#XBomber

Thanks for you assessment, it was very helpful. #XBomber

He's such a Toku villain I love it. #XBomber

What the hell is a space torpedo. #XBomber

She's a Force Ghost now. #XBomber

It's probably the hair. #XBomber

We're almost to the end. #XBomber
