And thanks from me too. I was looking for wheels for a battlewagon conversion that I have had in progress for over a year now.

Still got so much else to do it'll still be ages before I can start it up again (Especially with my glacial modelling speed) but at least I can now order the wheels and be able to work on it when I can.

"Ask ten different scientists about the environment, population control, genetics, and you'll get ten different answers, but there's one thing every scientist on the planet agrees on. Whether it happens in a hundred years or a thousand years or a million years, eventually our Sun will grow cold and go out. When that happens, it won't just take us. It'll take Marilyn Monroe, and Lao-Tzu, and Einstein, and Morobuto, and Buddy Holly, and Aristophanes…then all of this…all of this…was for nothing. Unless we go to the stars."

I tend to find old toys in charity shops and car boot sales really useful for parts. Even if you only find one part suitable it's easy enough to make a mold and make as many as you need. Picked up a box full of old Zoid parts the other day, more armour plates and weaponry than you could want. =)

My method too

I get an odd look from the dollar store clerk when I buy up all the toy cars. "Oh... who are these for?" she asks. I reply "Silence breeder! Dis isa good haul 'O Dakka!"

and then I pay her in teeth
