    That sucks, theres was no-where to park at my local pick up and I usually got burned too. But since moving the one in my area is safe.

    Those are fighting words!

    (Although you're right about the toys, which is why I really want to see a new show accurate BA to go with rhinox, waspinator and Rattrap)

    The stupid thing about it is that happened at the top of my road, I parked my car there around 7pm (free after 6.30) with the notion to move it later, which would literally mean moving it back about 3 car lengths.............completely forgot about it!! Old age sucks :D 

    :lol  I respectfully disagree my good man, look at Animated's silhouette! Shes awesome!!
    Where do I start with BW Arachnia?..............I'll let the picture do the talking :D

    The compressor has just broke I use with my airbrush.
    Bollocks!!!
    Today is going well :) 
    Just under £200 for a new one.

    My 6 year old son run out to the kitchen, emptied his money box and counted out the contents, just over £10. Handed it over and said 'Buy a new one on me Daddy!'
    Haha!!
    Bless him :D

    I don't know how well-known it is but I remember coming across someone mentioning it another forum. Definitely is a Kobayashi original, made by himself before he even worked for Takara. I can't wait to see what he brings on after MP-22.

    I was looking out the window momentarily feeling slightly sorry for myself. My son did that with the money box, and I immediately starting laughing!

    Is it worth looking on ebay for a second hand or for parts one that you can scavenge a compressor from?
