I am sure somebody shilled it up to $495, because it looks like its re-listed for $495 BIN.

My squadt is waiting patiently at home, damn I hate having to be stuck at work. It feels like time is going backwards.

This is a great question. I have several Squadts that have problems with their eyes falling out. What is the trick?

I'm at the point I'm gonna put a tiny spot of silicone in the socket to hold them as I am tired of crawling around on the floor trying to find the eye when one falls out.

It looks like the auction was pulled and relisted for even more money. I don't think anyone was dumb enough to pay $500 for it. At least I really hope not. violent2

a tiny bit of museum gel works best.

If you don't have museum gel, two tiny drops of Elmer's Glue or Aileen's Tacky Glue both work very well.
Both are polyvinyl-acetate based glues and are archival. They won't discolor or damage the paint on your figures and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.

Damn, I still have a goose egg..............but I did get a custom so I'm hoping this is the reason for the delay.

they shipped the customs yesterday, i think. you prolly wont see this until tomorrow or thursday on the east coast.

nnumber6 Tue Feb 15, 2011 8:59 pm

Received mine yesterday. The postal worker was nice enough to hide it behind a fence by my door, instead of leaving it on my porch. Looks even better in person!

OK, so it seems like all the lucky fuckers who scored a custom are all in the same boat.
Now I'm getting excited!!!!!!

Mmm mmm mmm!!! Thanks for the pictures, guys!! Will definitely take some snaps whenever it arrives!!

I would like to publically thank Chris, a fellow CADdy, who was kind enough to procure a BP Squadt for me. I came home at 1AM today (from Toy Fair) to find my Rotofugi package. While I haven't had any real time to take a close look what I saw is beautiful. Thank you Chris for your assistance. Don't ever hesitate to ask for a favor in return. Review with pics up this weekend on the all new and redesigned AFTimes.com!
