  1. Anovos replied (very quickly I might add) Shame but understandable when you have so many to do. Making odd exceptions would be a nightmare.
  2. Still the biggest unknown this one. I want to know if I'll be using the bucket as is, repainting or even replacing (either fluffy bunny kit I build or someone else). I honestly wish the helmet came un-assembled as it's something I was looking forward to but oh well.
  3. I've clearly missed something? Been a bit busy, any chance of a link to what the request was?
  4. Starting to look forward to ship dates now. The images clearly showed production is well underway so it can't be to long now. Speaking of which can someone magic me some more time to finish my E-11 build?
  5. I'll be using shapeaways I think. It's an online service who offer a range of materials but generally you'll get better results than you would from most home FDM printers. Still not worked out which material I need to use but it's going to be cheaper than buying a printer, though slower and harder to iterate.
  6. I've been doing this for my build too. I think that the next leap in blaster builds will come from 3D printing some of the parts and will be especially helpful on pipe builds. I found the cube the trickiest part so far, trying to get the chamfering right. I've not attempted the cylinders yet, I might just use yours as they look pretty good. That said learning to model is proving quite fun. So far I have the sight block, sight pin and the cube. Might have to try wings 3D too, looks a bit more advanced than 123D Design. Good work.
  7. Looks like they are closed for the year now. They did send an email but that wouldn't help people not on the list. Basically they want a holiday break like everyone else and so are clearing the books before the holidays and will open again in Jan.
  8. That's pretty much the thought process I had. The grey for the ab buttons is probably a close enough match too. Not sure if I'll make or buy a new belt yet. Will see how hard it is to get the fabric I need I guess.
  9. Forgot to say mine came last week, though I had to pay! Very happy with the boots, fit well (ordered up 1 size as suggested) and the inner soles are good and seem like they should be good for a troop. I do have 1 tiny issue which is the left inner sole isn't 100% perfectly aligned so sticks up a shade at the back but I've had this with other shoes before. Certainly not worth returning over, I'll just take a knife to it to trim the offending foam. I took some pictures which I'll post once I get round to it.
  10. Those look great, those counters look fantastic unpainted like that. Would love to know the source for them if you could share?
  11. Good luck, I'm just starting my build so I know how daunting all those other threads are!
  12. Just ordered some more glue using the link mcott65 gave me. Not heard back from the other seller yet but will give them the weekend to respond.
  13. thanks I'll get a tube ordered. Money back or no I can't see me using the last tube.
  14. I've contacted the eBay seller as a "concerned" buyer. I didn't use the words fake or counterfeit but I hinted at this. Will see what they say. If I'm not happy it's a PayPal dispute. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. The colour on mine seems more brown than the one you posted but that could be lighting (but doubt it). I am now reasonably sure this isn't a legit product so will bring it up with the seller. I did ask a UKG member where to get it and basically eBay is it. As far as I know there is no official uk source but I think I'll do some more research on this. Just glad I only got 1 tube now in case I can't get my money back. Edit: just went back to the listing and the picture looks completed different and more like the one you showed. Should hopefully give me some ammunition to get this resolved.
  16. According to the September email: Though the October one is due any minute now and may change the state of that.
  17. Other than cancer, what should I expect from a sniff test? Also is there a shelf life once opened? I can do a glue test if needed also.
  18. Anyone? If it's no good I'd like to be able to get my money back. If it helps there was no card which was also a bit of a red flag.
  19. The E6000 came today, does this look legit? Some of the printing isn't such great quality. This is as it came out of the envelope. -----------------
  20. You can hurt someone quite badly with a blunt instrument, but a touch extreme to confiscate them. However, the gun thing I am 100% behind. I'm not going to tell the USA what to do, though you'll guess my stance I am sure, but the UK has strict gun control and even a toy gun can land you in serious trouble if it isn't obviously one. If you took a BB gun to a con here I'd not be overly polite about it, there's no need for it.
  21. I ordered on Oct 12th, thy shipped on Oct 20th and are currently showing as "Pre advised" on the tracking. Not sure what that means but I'd guess they are still on a boat from China to Europe. On arrival I will try to do a bit of a review.
  22. I'm in the UK and everything is privately imported. I am sourcing from eBay and Amazon where most the 110ml (3.7oz?) is out of stock for some reason including the on I had planned on using. This seller says they are uk based and their shipping times tie up just their portfolio of items smells of China. Once I get it I'll test it. Is there a simple check I can do? I have some black ABS sheet I can use.
  23. perfect, 2 tubes is roughy what's needed isn't it?
