I have a feeling you'll end up with this.<br /><br />Someone show me a 1/6th mech suit with more features than this. I dare you.<br /><br />That Aliens yellow suit was pretty high priced and did nothing. I'm sick of people bashing the price. <br /><br />Each one take 64 hours to produce BY HAND. Each figure is video documented to insure no returns or defective craftsmanship. No other company does this. You get what you pay for.<br /><br />-2 CentsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-41531899465228250432009-08-10T23:31:30.558+08:002009-08-10T23:31:30.558+08:00hey AL, i like the laptop bit - ha! ha! no matter ...hey AL, i like the laptop bit - ha! ha! no matter what, USD1,200 is just TOO MUCH for any figure!!<br /><br />hi dennis, agreed :)alex teohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10434098393320787285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-12924894434937204592009-08-10T09:23:11.642+08:002009-08-10T09:23:11.642+08:00Pilot looks awful.

I mean 600 pieces is normal production, what is limited when you throw out 600 SAFS???<br /><br />If you not amputated go for an real easy kit in 1/6 doea cost even with classic bonus ~400$.<br /><br />Anyway i think it look to much plastik and less detail. for this size-price I ecxpect a bit more rivets and steel feeling. It' all over like a blown 1/16 model and the bigger they go the more details you will miss.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-22361230013170677132009-08-03T21:57:27.242+08:002009-08-03T21:57:27.242+08:00only if money grow on trees and i have a whole pla...only if money grow on trees and i have a whole plantation, desmond ;p - ha! ha! just nice to see the pictures and drool - wanted to share with everybodyalex teohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10434098393320787285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-82178628945494815302009-08-03T17:47:50.791+08:002009-08-03T17:47:50.791+08:00Alex, are you buying this??Alex, are you buying this??desmondnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-14257211720744287482009-08-03T15:02:42.717+08:002009-08-03T15:02:42.717+08:00yup that's pretty much the sentiment going aro...yup that's pretty much the sentiment going around in the forums as well.
