    I wonder how hard those are to put paint and put together?

    Since you're in California, I'll assume you're not the Seller in China, and that it's okay to post about my own Kabaya auctions here :D  If not, it's an honest mistake-- sorry!

    I've got most of the 30 different models available at my Ebay store:

    http://stores.ebay.com/Black-Gaines-Toy-Store

    They're at or below that other guy's prices and shipping is cheaper (as long as you're in the USA, otherwise it's probably about the same, I'd imagine).

    For up to 5 model kits*, shipping will remain $4.55 total. If you're planning on buying more than 5 model kits, and you need an estimate, feel free to contact me via Ebay, and please provide your zip code. (*Note: for the purposes of shipping, Road Caesar and Landcross count as 3 kits. Dreadwing and Liokaiser count as 2 kits. This is because they're a bit bigger than the other model kits.)

    As for how small they are, for the most part they're bigger than WSTFs. The only one that's about WST size is Ginrai. He's very tiny and very complex. On the other hand, Landcross is nearly actual size!

    They're generally not too hard to put together. They often have extra plastic flash that needs to be shaved off with an exacto knife, though. I've tried to indicate the ones that are particularly hard to put together in the auction descriptions.

    I know a couple people who have painted theirs, and they've come out really good. Here are two examples that TFmaster did:

    They all transform. I think the pictures in my auctions make that pretty clear ;)

    Hey!

    I'm currently sold out of Deathsaurus, unfortunately. He was a little more popular than I expected. But hopefully I'll have some more pretty soon. Pretty much what I have listed on Ebay right now is what I have in stock.

    He measurues almost 3.5 inches in dragon mode. 3 inches even in robot mode. Pretty fricking small, but definitely one of the more complex models.

    well hell, if they transform, then yeah! *L* would be nice to have cityformers, especially since they're slightly bigger'n the regular WSTs... would fit in better

    I have Road Ceasar and I can say first hand that it RULEZ!!! I am hoping to order a few more(hopefully Metroplex, trypticon, sixshot, liokaiser). I also have Quickswitch/sixknight who also RULEZ. It took me 3 hours to assemble the 4 of them(i'm a little slow....)
