(FLOSI'S Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

I don't think I have the skills for this. It's a very specific metallic blue color and the skin texture is bumpy and won't look right if sanded.

Bummer summer. Crazy glue is a fickle *****.

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Yeah, it sucks. I gave him to my friend that isn't as picky as me, but it'd drive me crazy if I kept him like that. My oy imperfection ocd would go into overdrive.

In other news, I just watched all of your favorite J. Law in a movie I was not expecting her in. Like Crazy. I love these little independents. Boy, is that girl everywhere?
I'm sure Ken has seen it!

Yep sure did! I saw it just for her! But she wasn't the female lead, so there wasn't enough of her... The other girl was cute, too...

My $150 Godzilla toy is destroyed.

It was a Gigan figure. The horn on the top of his head wasn't glued on out of the box, so I had to do it myself. Tiny bit of cray cray glue that I was unaware of got on my middle finger, so as I was gluing the horn in, I was horrified to find my finger stuck to the back of Gigan's neck. It left a glue fingerprint on the back of his neck and I tried everything to fix it. Fingernail polish remover, goo gone. Eventually the paint wore off a little bit, but the glue was still there. It's unfixable now.

That really sucks! I probably would have done the same thing, or worse. I have no skills when it comes to putting things together or painting... Well, at least it's the back of the neck, so you may not notice it when displayed... But I know you'll always know it's there...

You gave it away? Holy crap! Are you gonna acquire another one?

Oh no Ben!!! I know you liked that Godzilla.

If I find one, I might. They tend to sell out pretty quickly after they're released.

Oh no Ben!!! I know you liked that Godzilla.

It wasn't my giant one, but this one that got messed up. If it was the gigantic $400 one, I'd die.

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

oh thank God. I thought it was the giant one. But still, no bueno.

So did I! It's still terrible, but I really liked that giant one, and I remember how excited you were to get it. That ruined one is neat though. I still feel bad for you.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm sorry you lost a piece that you love. I am glad it was not the new one

Sure, I'll gladly pay for yours if King can hook us up.

Lmk, King and I'll paypal ya some funds.

You are correct. But I found a screenshot of the package, and there is one sentence on the back. The front just references that it was translated in Navajo. If you don't mind, I am interested in getting a copy. It's worth the sub-$10 price (with tax and shipping). I heard it was a limited 1500 copy production run.

Yeah, I can pick you guys up a copy no problem. Let me see how much they were for sure though.

Ah man, Ben. That sux! I've been in similar situation before. Hope you can find a way to fix it.

That sucks. That superglue can sneak out so easily and get on something else. Sorry to hear.

Commiserations Boba, that sucks. It's gut-wrenching when you break one of your nice things

You guys see the change in all the sigs on the board, where they are scrolling on mobile devices now. Effectively displaying a set amount of height I suppose, but I really don't like this change...

Was wondering if it was just me, but I'm sure it isn't...

 

[King Darkness]

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Yeah, that's weird.

Shropt and YoNoSe have scrolling sigs.

 

[YoNoSe]

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

I think my sig is too big. I made the image to whatever size it says on the control panel but then I added the "Check out..." line. I'm due for a change soon but I should delete the text so I don't into trouble, trouble, trouble.

 

[YoNoSe]

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Yeah, that's better.

Awesome pic. I was just wondering the other day....I haven't been actively following the rumors on Ep 7 because I don't want to spoil everything but I feel like I've heard rumors about everyone returning except Billy Dee. I hope we get Old Lando!

re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

I think I might have found somebody that can fix my figure. Hopefully it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
