    Makes me wish I hadn't passed up Darkwind. Nice job. I love stuff like this.

    Venks was supposed to send me an invoice but I guess he got wrapped up with Botcon excitement. Hopefully I hear something soon!

    Looks great. Still need a Darkwind. I waited FOREVER for my local TRU to clearance the load they had of this guy, but it never happened. Then they just sort of disappeared, lol.

    Yes he was, was chilling with him all weekend as part of the BC boys. Hella cool guy to kick it with.

    He was a little incognito in the dealer's room. I redirected a few guys to him to buy it as people kept mentioning not being able to find him.

    Ya I think he still has few left unless he unloaded the rest at the Sheraton during the last parts party. But send him a PM and see if you can still get on the wait list.

    I just also put my head on my figure and its looking pimp

    I have the first Skyfall kit and its awesome. I'm hoping for a revision of this kit to fix the gap issue, and I can't wait to get a set once that happens!

    I am happy with everything I ordered from Veksta! This set is a great looking upgrade and the gap issue is no issue for me. Looking forward to receiving this.

    Great review XJ. That gap is much smaller than Venksta made it seem in his message. I still would like to see if those shoulders come out before I order a set.

    How do I get in touch with the guy? His site says we can pre-order on his facebook page, but there is no link to it there and I don't know his name...

    So bummed I missed these at BotCon. I was there but didn't pay attention to his blog :(  Oh well, at least I got a regular RF-005 ordered already. Looks really good! I have been super happy with the RF-002 Skyfall kit and it appears I will be just as happy with this one too.

    I love that just one guy was able to get results this good-looking. It inspires hope for all of us. :)
