    I've got an order that is over a year old that hasn't been filled. Ken S had a series of strokes and his operation has essentially been closed.

    Since this topic has been brought up yet again, I may as well ask now. I bought a replica of Superlink Megatron's (Galvatron's) energon sword from Ken,which I really love! I've wanted to buy more, but with the site no longer able to fill orders, I haven't been able to. Anyone on here know of anywhere else I can pick a couple more of those swords up, or am I out of luck now?

    Edit: The sword in question is the top pic on the right http://www.transrepro.com/customs.htm

    I thought he had strokes, not heart attacks.

    They really need to just take that site down. It has been causing problems w/ people for over 2 yrs.

    FYI, in his day, Ken made by far the best quality stuff. I have quite a few repro parts from him and they all turned out great.

    I would wager to say that the site was paid up for a good while, else it would be down already.

    It's also entirely prossible that Ken is either unable to take it down himself due to his condition or it's effects. He may not be able to remember the information necessary to access it to do so, even. Or that if he can't do so, no one else has that information. So they may want to take it down and be incapable.

    that is what they claimed for axs to his email passwords. however, updates WERE made by other people, so they did have axs to update the site. they could atleast update it again and tell people NOT TO PLACE ORDERS, or replace the main page with an out of service notice
