Plastic Posse Podcast

The Plastic Posse Podcast is a bi-weekly podcast about Scale Modeling. This includes all genres, scales, and ability levels. From Warhammer 40K to Gundam to Aircraft to Armor and even Science Fiction, our show features in depth interviews with the best guests, as well as discussions that take a deeper look into the hobby and our motivation for it. Our motto is "There is NO wrong way to enjoy Scale Modeling!" Hosted by TJ Haller, Doug Smith, Jensen Taylor, John Bonnani, Grant Mayberry, and Scott Gentry, the Posse is all about the Social and Community Aspects of this hobby! Bottom line - we want to have some fun, and you will too as you listen in with us.

Four of the five of us (Jensen is lost) are joined by Stephan Ortmanns, AKA Steve Builds Panzers. We discuss trends in the hobby, and rather than generic New Years resolutions we talk about specific skills or concepts we want to onboard during 2026. We also interview Brandon Jacob about the upcoming Winterblitz 2026 show which will be held Saturday, January 24 at the Museum of the American GI.
