Here is a favorite view of mine when making parts. Sometimes I think about scraping off all those drips, but is a good reminder of all the repro work done to help complete or repair a good deal of old jumbos. And if I thought about cleaning it later, Tony would say "Hell No !!!" Aw Hell NO! Don't clean it anytime soon. Let it build up some, to show you've been Busy! Well if after a while that table surface becomes un-even (them half molds need a level surface) go ahead and clean it off. Whatever that stuff is can be scraped up, ground, and used as a filler or something. zozo-mag

Had to crack open a new gallon of my favorite silicone molding material, Sorta Clear 40 today. Maybe some custom pieces to share by the end of the month on a Taekwon V for a fellow RJ member.

Anyone requesting parts after this post, be prepared to possibly go onto a list that I will re-visit when I have more time, and cooler temperatures in my work shop. I appreciate all the requests that you guys have given to me and love helping to restore jumbos. But have a couple large items that I need to fulfill, and then want to spend more of my free time getting back on custom items, personal projects, and enjoying peaceful Summer evenings after a hectic day at work. As long as you aren't in a big rush for an item, don't worry, I am pretty good at getting to them when I can. Shoot me your list and I will write it down and check with you later on when I may get to them and check if you still want them or not. That is why I don't like to take pre-payments, so then no one can say I took their money and still waiting on their items. If you really need something quickly, am sure a large bribe would work I'll still be around plenty, but seems like we had another long Winter, a short Springtime, and jumping into Summer pretty quickly. I just like to bundle things and not have to run the air conditioner out in the shop for a few items. Thanks.

Enjoy some time to yourself Wes. Hope you make some awesome stuff for yourself. I am hoping on that and be sure to stop in at my above jumbo Facebook page from time to time. I plan to tease/show off my more current happenings as is just really easy to pick and upload the smartphone photos that I would like to share. I am not really a blogger and slow to update my main site for more current happenings. So, it works well for me.

Does anyone repro Poseidon Missiles? I'm missing one on mine. I'm surprised not more jumbos has this firing mechanism. It shoots pretty high. One of the best jumbos in my opinion.

I have a mold for the Poseidon missiles. I can see about making up a set. Mine are more a regular yellow and not translucent like the originals.

Cross posted from the Sales area. I don't look through it that often, so would add it to my thread here as well. Hey guys, I am working on new projects and looking for GaiKing elbow and chest shooters that are intact and working order. Thought I would check if anyone has any laying around. I would pay around $30 each if in good condition. I only need a few chest shooters and more of the elbow shooters. Or I may end up making repro copies of the elbow shooter at some point.

Hey Wes.
If you ever manage to make a repro elbow shooter, I would be really interested in a few pairs. And I'm sure there will be a high demand for that. We're all fan of the Daimos conversion, or even beeing able to make our Gaikings with a double shooting fist. And I will need it for my next project as I would like to have a character with a double shoothing fist as well like most of the great Popy.

Thought I would share a few photos of the recent Getter Liger fist and shooter progress. Need to work on the "blue" color as likes to turn purple with some of the resins. Tend to load and update more on my jumbo facebook page www.facebook.com/teambac
