Want to nominate two to the SS list, I don't see them up there yet: Caufield for the 1/48 Low-Vis, I also picked up another 1/48 Low-Vis up from, oh I can't remember the name of the store, it was in Chinatown on Dundas or Spadina. The store was trying to move stuff out, it was only $350 Canadian, box was a little beat up though. Got a Hikaru 1S with a beat up box also for $99 Canadian, which is about $75 US! Can't beat that! and LiQuiD[EViL] for the 1/55 Super, my son's estactic! Fast delivery, superb packaging, my mail carrier did her best to beat it up and it survived intact!

thanks to Mechamaniac for the quick trade and Godzilla for the Doyushas!

that's the one. when i get in tonight, i'm going to thoroughly look it over, and i might happen to deem it junk and just have our chief sign it over to me for research purposes. they owe me big time anyway, i just got passed over for promotion because i was not minority enough. or not the right minority...being one in a city of over 12000...well, ok, there's at least a dozen illegals we've been trying to catch...but, that's another story.

it's got 2 13 rounds mags i think i might have found another backup gun, might be time to sell the twins (Glock 33s) one of the guys i work with is an HK dealer (that's how I get my HKs cheap), so I'm gonna see if he can get parts cheap, this thing is really in bad shape. when I get in to work tonight, i'm gonna see if it still functions. I didn't have time to really look at it while i was cataloging the rest of the crap.

i'm was just glad that the trailers we had flyers go into were empty....that was my main concern about the rounds that missed. don't need anymore lawsuits. a couple of the others guys actually hit her a few times before i showed up and she was still humming along on whatever she was on. it's scary what some people can do when they're determined. on a lighter note, i was just told i could take all our old confiscated guns and trade them in to our dealer so we can offset the cost of the Glock simunition guns. There is some weird stuff that's been collecting dust in our basement! I think I'm keeping the HK Flare Gun and I'm gonna see if the city will sell me the old P7, it could use some work, but it's neat gun. Gotta find out where/who these guns came from and see where the cases are at, but some of this stuff's been in here before we had a computerized inventory system (circa Oct. 2003 when I made it, sheesh, we're still doing carbon copied paper reports) and the old paperwork's all yellowed and unreadable. But then again, if the owners really wanted their stuff back, they would've made a point to show up in the last 40 years or so. I hate to think of what guns were/are stored at the old Chief's house....back when he was THE Chief of one other officer and they shared a car, gun, radio (don't know why they had a radio, who else were they gonna call?) things were different in those days, so I hear. Someone told me that there are conversion kits for Glocks that are cheaper than the Simunition gun. All it is is the slide half and all we need are spare frames and we've got plenty of spare guns since the city won't hire people to replace those that have left, so that might be a better option. Anyone have any experience with these conversion-kits?

please forgive me for not adding much to this, (it's 4am and i'm a little drunk). My Valk has a beam sabre! (Hikaru stole it from Heero)

wow, just shot our SWAT teams new UMPs, and man, those are sweet! I have a question about either KWA or HFC airguns. here are two links KWA and HFC anyone have any experiences with either of either of these companies? My commander is giving me $800 to purchase some training weapons. I was going to purchase Glock Simunition guns, but $800 can't even buy me two at dept. purchase price. and I was really trying to buy 4 guns for use in training. I basically want something that functions like our duty weapon (Glock 22) and I would rather have my people train with guns like their own and I want people getting hit so it's a little more realistic. The last shooting we had, everyone got lucky that the lady was so drunk that she kept hitting our cars and not us. Well, she wasn't that drunk, she was able to reload her shotgun. After reviewing the tapes from our cars, i noticed two of our officers just standing there out in the open and taking shots (and missing) and i really need to get these old timers retrained. (we fired a total of 17 shots, and she only got hit 9 times, that's bad! i only fired 3 times, and the coroner pulled out 3 black talons, so i know i didn't miss, hydrashoks and winchester's new ranger talon didn't expand at all, that sucks.) but 8 stray shots in a congested trailer park, that's NOT GOOD. 7 officers, 9 hits, 17 rounds fired, that's just horrible. we need more time for training.

ditto! they're cool! will get pics up when i get a chance. --- here's the clear parts next to non-clear parts d'oh, just noticed i got the arm armors reversed on the 1J. gotta go fix it. need sleep....

wow! another thumbs up for Monkey Nugget! got my clear fast packs quick! 3 days from Japan to Ohio!

i believe the one for sale at that site is a tawianese bootleg. it's not Bandai. look at the corner where there is a picture of some character. on Bandai's, it will be the Bandai symbol.

sorry for the delay in pics, my daughter had pneumonia this past week so i've been at home with her. here's the pic of my dept's M16s. These SEMI-AUTO only versions will be going in the safes in our trunks this summer next to our Tasers and Less-Lethal shotguns. wish someone would just invent the Phaser and we'll be done. Just no STUN setting please! The shrink said if I shot one more person, he'll certify me so I can retire at 70% tax free with full-medical benefits! woohoo! no takers lately though....seems we've had our run of psychos already this year.

not really, the game generates enemies for the next level based on what you have left, just enough to beat you, basically, if you have all one type of ships, the computer will have ships that beat that. if you have a decent well-balanced fleet, you should be able to beat the computer. or you can retire all your ships and the end of each level, and have a bunch in the queue ready to be built. ------ Homeworld 2 Plus or Homeworld 2+2 Lovers again

ummm.... wow, what do you do for a living, i need a career change.

Homeworld 2: DYRL?

i'm to the point of not caring anymore, it's been way too long, if it comes out, well, i'll buy it, if not, oh well. I just wish they would do more things soon, I'm kinda vf-1ed out.

there's still some places taking orders, i think http://www.valkyrie-exchange.com still has some listed. i bought too many, i had planned on buying more 1/48s, but I gave up on them, I want something different now. here's a small pic here's a link http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/magazi...n-04-page-2.jpg

water slide decals usually came with models in the old days (don't know about new ones, I know all my old Macross kits had decals). You basically cut out the decal you want to put on your toy, get it wet and slide it into place where it's supposed to go. it looks nicer than plain stickers, but it's more susceptible to being scratched off in transforming. Takatoys and Anasazi's stickers are real thin too, much better than Yamatos. I have both Takatoys and Anasazi stickers on my Yamatos.

i wondered the same thing when I first got the VF-1J reissue. but it didn't matter much since he's always in battroid mode with GBP armor on.

well, if you go back and read the descrip of the elint, he actually put in there that it was not a repaint, and on this auction of his http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=3186226814 it's his custom BANDAI VF-1D Strike made from a Jetfire. so he obviously know what a painted part looks like

another A+++ for Singtao (Marcia's Locker). Got my stuff today and wasn't expecting it until Tuesday (UPS is strange). He said item was opened and displayed, well it still looks new!

ok, belenyer got this on march 6 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...MEBWA%3AIT&rd=1 and never got nor left feedback, now, auction with exact same description and picture is ending in just under 2 hours, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=3183254518 where belenyer is also bidding it up, as well as bluealpha247 let's see where it goes, augustmel is high bidder now at $90, let's see if belenyer or bluealpha247 bids again 9:18am EST, 14 bids, history: Mar-31-04 03:50:45 PST -- augustmel( 63) Mar-31-04 05:28:38 PST -- flash0222( 169) Mar-30-04 23:48:23 PST -- hartl4( 215) Mar-27-04 11:19:32 PST -- belenyer( 1 ) Mar-30-04 23:47:03 PST -- hartl4( 215) -------------------------------- guess i got lucky when i bought something from him awhile back, then again, when my address is to a police station, that might make some people think twice about flaking on me. i've had NO trouble getting anything when I have it delivered to me at work.

i'm dorothy???? guess i better dye my hair and grow some long eyebrows

definately a tank, it says military tank in the description

that's $40 then import/shipping fees come in. think i will pass until a larger more perfect one comes along, now i gotta save up for the YF-19 FP (hopefully, this will come out before I have another kid)

well, we got some ammo in, so I finally dug out the ONE M-16 we have that still has the full-auto trigger. we only have 20 rounds. this thing sucks. had to sit there and figure out how to work it since we got no manuals, but i didn't like it in semi or full-auto. oh well. guess i got spoiled with the MP5s, UMPs, and G36s we have on the SWAT team.
