  1. Welcome to MW. Sorry, but your best bet is quite probably eBay. And you can always keep an eye on the For Sale section here. I can almost guarantee the prices will be better than eBay.
  2. Using another ID to bid on your own auction to raise the price. And, unfortunately, it happens a lot more often than you'd think. EBay doesn't really police their site at all, so it goes on all the time. Back to that custom 1/60 VE; it looks pretty good. Does it looks $1000 good? Uh, no. I do like the Toynami Super-poseable hands, though. I tried that once, but the pegs are too small. I wonder if he just glued them on? No rear shot of fighter mode, so I guess we'll never know.
  3. This, should be good. Hopefully the seller posts pics soon. I've gotta see this $1000 1/60!
  4. Oh man, I almost forgot about that one! That episode ruled! "BLOOD ORGY!!!" Dammit, I searched all over and couldn't find a decent pic of the Blood Orgy! And I thought you could find anything on the internet!
  5. That must be COLON Farrell showing how he got ready for his role as Alexander the Great (Sodomizer).
  6. The 1/48s are quite durable, provided you don't get too rough with them during transformations. The main problem has been with the backpack hinges. Using too much force will break them pretty easily. Go ahead and get one (or many); you won't be disappointed.
  7. Just use English drill bits. You can get these any decent hardware store, like Ace. 2.7mm = 0.1063" = roughly #36 drill bit 1.93mm = 0.076" = roughly #48 drill bit You can get these individually for $3 to $4 each.
  8. While there have been some real crappy episodes (the one where the kids had a school TV news show was just awful), there have been far more good ones. One of my favorites is where Cartman's hand becomes the new Jennifer Lopez and he wakes up to find Ben Asslick naked in his bed. That had classic lines like, "Oooh, Ben Affleck spooge!" and "Taco-flavored kisses for my Ben!" And I always seem to find myself watching "Bigger, Longer, and Uncut" when it comes on Comedy Central's Secret Stash. Terrance: Philip, you're a dirty pig-f**ker! Philip: Now Terrance, why would you say that?! Terrance: Well, because you f**k pigs! Philip: (after a short pause) Oh yeah! Both: Hahahahahahahaha! Ah... mindless toilet humor is great!
  9. You know MGREXX will be all over this one. To use as a c*ck-ring! LOL! I keed, I keed!
  10. This is utterly ridiculous. I guess the dipshits at Customs were dumbfounded by the complexities involved in opening the tabs and decided that your empty box was such a threat to national security that they had to annihilate it with extreme prejudice. I've had plenty of stuff sent from overseas, including a huge box containing a case of 1/48 CFs from Noel, and never, ever had any kind of problems with Customs, knock on wood. I'm sure you can file a complaint, but don't expect any sympathy or retribution. You'd probably just get the old "They were just doing their jobs" line.
  11. I really wasn't trying to start anything here; I just wanted to stick up for the 1/60 line since it almost never seems to get any love. As I stated earlier, I don't play with my 1/60s (for the most part), so I overlook their faults as playable toys. To me, they're display pieces and they look pretty darn good in battroid and fighter modes. Gerwalk isn't quite as good, but it's still not all that bad. It makes me wonder: if the 1/48s had never been created, would more people appreciate the 1/60s? I'm sure they would.
  12. Got mine yesterday and everything looks great! No gummy canopy, no broken antennae, no problems at all. Thanks again, cap!
  13. I'm tired of the 1/60-bashing that goes on around here, so pardon me while I climb up onto my soapbox now... They may not be the nicest-looking, most accurate, and most poseable valks around, but dammit, I like each and every one of my 1/60s (32 valks, 3 Q-Raus). Their faults (mostly minor) are simply part of their own unique character. Of course, mine don't get played with and most of them are simply posed like in my previous picture, but they're still cool in their own right. We should all embrace the 1/60s and be thankful to Yamato for giving us something new and different (i.e. without swing bars) and expanding the line to include all three two-seaters and an enemy mecha. That is all.
  14. For those wanting a Hikaru 1S Strike, it's pretty easy to just repaint a Roy. The prep work takes longer than the actual painting, but in all it's a reasonably quick "custom" job.
  15. That was a really funny show! Is this going to be a series, or was it just a one-time thing for Halloween? I hope it gets picked up as a series... and replaces that uber-stupid "12 Oz. Mouse" crap.
  16. I believe he was the squad leader for Da Bears. I want to see him do the Super Bowl Shuffle.
  17. The first one was fair at best and this sequel appears to be no improvement. I don't like being forcefully pulled through the storyline by the balls, the multiplayer bunny-hopping is totally gay, and the skins and gun sounds both suck ass. The Thompson sounds like a old-school manual typewriter... clack, clack, clack, clack. I'm not wasting my money on this overpriced, overhyped p.o.s.
  18. I would use an abrasive cut-off wheel to cut the pieces from their sprues (sp?) and remove most of the excess material with a grinding stone bit. I would recommend you finish the job by hand with a file or sandpaper, though. It's pretty easy to remove too much material with the grinding bits, especially with soft stuff like resin.
  19. A rotary tool with interchangeable bits for just about any job; cutting, grinding, polishing, etc. You can find more info here. They're pretty damn handy.
  20. Payment sent for Virgin Road option set. Thanks again.
  21. PM sent about the Virgin Road stickers.
  22. Payment sent. Thank you Devin!
  23. PM sent. Thanks, Anasazi!
