Not sure if it has been mentioned yet, but there was a Chuck Norris show or movie(can't remember) and I believe it was Chuck's character, who built model airplanes, and helped one of the kids in the neighborhood out and showed him how to build.  Come to think of it 95% sure it was a movie, just don't remember which one.

One that I just noticed last night.. In the Hawaii 5-0 reboot, there's a (Tamiya?) USS Enterprise on a shelf on the wall in McGarrett's office.

There was a CSI where the killer built accurate shadow boxes of the crime scenes.

Ye, I remember that one. Wasn't it a running case through out a couple of the series.

That was some killer minature work... Wink

Hmmmm, in an episode of the Travel Channel's 'Mysteries at the Museum' they featured a story about a woman a hundred years or so ago that created elaborate dioramas of crime scenes that were used to train detectives and officers in the forensics of examining a real scene for clues.

One more, The Brady Bunch TV series.   One episode is about Peter building a MPC 69 Barracuda 1/25 kit.  He has the box in his hand in several scenes and is working on it at the kitchen table.  That was late 69 or early 70 I think.

Nothing ever fits……..and when it does, its the wrong scale.

To make mistakes is human.  To blame it on someone else shows management potential.

Time for an update here; Got a new movie to add to the list, Star Trek Into Darkness has a scene inside Star Fleet HQ where every major starfleet flagship is lined up, from the shuttlecraft to the USS Vengance (from the movie) including a few rarely seen surprises in model form, like a big scale DY-100, and two original Matt Jefferies starship Enterprise concept designs including the ringship design Enterprise and what later entered Trek canon as the USS Daedalus, or the tennis ball on a waterbattle as one person called it.

Ringship Enterprise:

Daedalus:
