Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Hope you got the deposit back.

Thinking of maybe re-ordering once in-hand pics are out?

They did, but if you really look at the markings and the skin tones they're still off even on the SWS Maq.

Nothing is ever perfect in most of these replicas it's just an approximation that might get close.

That was the biggest annoyance for me too - particularly their "screw you" attitude when everyone pointed it out to them.

Oh, I'm not saying its perfect. It has a lot of things I would improve, but it is a lot closer to the movie pred than this.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Did Sideshow forget about this? Did anyone order or has it shipped already?
