Just don’t buy tickets for it in advance.

I missed the first release, so I’m desperate to get this but I will have to put him in the Kenner Red tracksuit and drill a hole from his left eye to the back of his head. I’m serious!

This looks beyond incredible and I could just about scrape together the cash plus shipping over the course of a year - but I’m in the UK so I would have to pay VAT and customs charges on top, which tips the balance against it. Still, happy for everyone who’s getting it, and can’t wait to see the...

Anyone ever seen a 1/6 Largo head? I was wondering if there might have been a Dragon Adolfo Celi along the lines of their ‘Robert Shaw’. Need it for a custom project. Thank you.

None of those. None of those. Why would I do that? I’m sad for everyone here, including you, who is owed money; and the hobby as a whole is diminished by this. That said, it might have been good not to defend them blindly, which I’m afraid is how it appeared to me.

Is that helicopter a repainted version of another 1:6 helicopter, or did they make it specially for this?
