Ebay king strikes again.....
« on: November 04, 2007, 08:31:03 AM »
Look what I picked up on ebay. I don't even know why I got it. It just looked pretty cool.

Why do you do this Bill!?  That is a pellet gun with a scope on it.  We could make you a better Naboo weapon then that one.  Holy Crap!

looks cool to me. too bad it isn't a pellet gun. The idea of our weapons actually being able to fire appeals to me (airsoft, nerf guns, water guns and paintball prefferably) Althought that function might prove to be a handicap when doing events, but we could jsut leave them unloaded, and plugs in the barrels

It looked cool...... besides, fearless leader, that isn't a Naboo gun. It is the Skiff Guard gun Han uses to shoot the sarlacc tentacle that was wrapped around Lando's leg!  :mrgreen:

It was the geek in me coming out!

Eh.... it's a show piece. Sure I should have not bid on it, but I just thought it was pretty cool. I mean I should be focusing more on the DLT-20a for my Storm Commando costume. But all will come together in due time!

Well if it was a nerf gun or a water gun it wouldn't be so bad... water gun would be the best, especially for summer marches ;)

Personally, Bill, I happen to like that gun and I don't think you paid too much. There. I said it.

I know how that feels when the geek comes out,My mum works at Target and when I go to visit her I have to resist the urge to go look in the Star wars action figure aisle

((Although I did manage to find one of those Stormtrooper action figures made to look like the concept art from the first movie,comes with a blast shield and lightsaber Whoo hoo!))

And that's an interesting purchase,I could see the TIE pilot's using that as a survival pistol

Thanks, Kyle. I thought it was a decent deal, as well.

Actually, it did turn out to be a pretty decent little prop. I am happy with it, even if others don't like it. But whatever, I really am not interested in what others think of it.

However here is the latest and greatest of the ebay king...

Just won this on ebay Friday! Woo hoo! I am rather excited...
