      hey i want to do some body mods on one or two of my char-gs. i want to cut out some of the plastic and put in little screens from a sink faucet. got any suggestions on how to cut pieces out? ive got a hobby knife, its sharp & all, but its hard plastic and from what ive tried, it doesn’t cut well. let me know what to do/use if you’ve got suggestions. thanks.

      birdwig, hotnifes will bend the plastic. once you have a hole drilled the exacto blade can shave easier. also cheap oem shells are softer so have a practice first. is there any mustang or gto shells availible for bcg’s in the u.s.

      if indonesia attacks australia because bush is greedy in iraq i’ll have to kill john howard with a suicide range modded bit char-bomber

      If you guys know kiddies into Mini4WD craze, they have many body-modding tools available. Most handy is “micro saw” – its like a saw blade mounted in an Xacto handle.

      we can send our best in for bush but all bush will give us is more genmodmaccas and the crap they dont want (and they steal our manaros!).
      PAYBACK TIME. give us the goods i say tomy, pull the finger out and give us, the minority that we might be some decent incentive to buy your goods in Australia! if they can package them in asia they can send them here BEFORE shipping to the U.S. for once! after all isnt that sensible.

      of course though they will ship to the u.s.a and to get them we’ll have to buy them at worse prices than the imported bcg’s in chinatown.:8ball:

      Why not petition JNH? They’re the company who’s got sole import rights to Tomy stuff…

      A petition is a good idea, panda just type up an e-mail saying “we want da goods” (maybe a little more technical) then get as many people as possible to copy and paste it then send it to jnh.

      There are three types of people in the world, those who can count, and those who can’t.
