  1. my favorite nose cone is going to have to be the yf-19. if you look at it head-on,it reminds me of an SR-71 blackbirds. you know,if you stand in front of each plane & look at it from the front. i've always liked the oval look of the 2 planes' noses. gonna have to go with the 19's gunpod too. love the way you can eject the empty ammo clip & load another stored on the back of the shield :ph34r:

  2. i'm 30 or as i like to say: 21 with 9 years experience. i currently own a low-viz 1/48,1/60 ve-1 elintseeker w/ a max 1/48 coming soon. over the past few years i've bought & sold prabably 30 other yamatos & bandais.saw rowboat-tech on t.v. when i was 5.got my first jetfire soon after B))

  3. your creation was such a cutie it made me think of the persocoms from chobits.your cutie would be a perfect candidate for one!!! think of it your own cutie to be your personal walking computer themed as a macross valkyrie!! :p

  4. the cheapest way to do it would be to get a box of desicator. this is usually sold at hardware stores or storage places that sell boxes for moving. it's similar to that silicate gell someone mentioned earlier,but much stronger. i actually use it to keep the bilge area of my jetski bone-dry from condensation all winter during storage. it'll make it arid in that cabinet you have. ;)

  5. i guess what i really ment by the AK-47 being inspired by the sturmgewehr44 is that the 44 was what started the whole assault weapon chambered in a rifle cartrige.not anything more than the 44 being ground zero for that line of thought in the next era of assault weapons.i did see that show on history channel about the history of the german WWII era weapons.i believe they stated the production #"s for the 44 being 10,000 i think.if only the ones on the eastern front with a chance of surviving,i guess when the russians get back far enough in that warehouse to get to the captured lugers & walther's we'll start seeing more sturmgewehr 44's.damn,i always want the most elusive weapons.guess i'll just keep my sights on a norinco chinese AK-47/MAK-90 pre-ban chambered in 7.62mm.i just love that stock w/ the thumb hole grip. :wub:

    maybe a picture of the sturmgewehr44 will have to do for now :(

  6. any of you guys know of any good sites on the german ww2 era sturmgewehr 44 assault rifle? this tops my list for most wanted vintage guns.this was the worlds first automatic chambered in a rifle cartrige.this was the inspiration for my other favorite gun,the AK-47.better yet,any of you guys been lucky enough to have seen 1 in person or handle 1? i'll bet the the price on 1 of these is through the roof.

  7. question for you guys.i want to get an AK-47. the rumanian 1 goes for $250 & i've seen a nice chinese 1 going for $1200. i've heard the rumanian ones are crap,but what about the chinese ones? the 1 at my local gun store seemed to be really well made.was a while back that i saw it. how were the AK's affected by the ban? i noticed that i haven't seen alot of chinese ones lately.

  8. it's definately a nostalgia thing.i collect them cause of my desire to have them when i was little,but couldn't.those wants really never die.i like my yamatos better ,but i still have those few 1/55's i love for no good reason. for the love god man,play with your toys!!!!!! i'm 30 years old.i play with my valkyries,i play with my old truck,i play with my new truck,i play with my girl friend & i'm a happier person for it.guys are just like big kids,the toys only get bigger & more expensive ^_^
