I managed to get some of the diecast from a store over here called POUNDLAND, got a recognizer, sam flynns lightcycle and kevin flynns lightcycle, all £1 each :D
When did you get those? my neighbour works in poundland I'll get her to keep an eye out

That is freakish!

I did manage to solve it back in the day, with help from the book "How to solve the rubiks cube" lol.

me too, you only have to learn a few moves to be able to do it, so simple when you know how to do it

spacksputter- i'm guessing 'plasterer' . not seen that method before with the spray, we would call the process 'skimming'  you skim a thin layer of plaster onto the plasterboard as a finished layer.  :)

Seems like this is Defender month:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Williams-Defender-/220780930864?pt=UK_Video_Games_Coin_Operated_MJ&hash=item336791a730

:o :o :o  this is so close to where i live, like 30 minutes
as some may know i'm not a collector at all, but i've always weakened at the sight of a defender and am really tempted, really tempted.

1 week earlier and i could have joined the gang properly, but now impossible. :(

The Russian one is only about 50 Euro's (75 US dollars to be precise, so it depends a bit on the exchange rate) INCLUDING world-wide shipping. That's the great thing that you pay it in dollars, makes it WAY much cheaper for us ;)

Really think the ease of it is worth that amount. Although your set-up may work (still doubt it gives the same results as a micro-proccesor controlled 100 kHz frequency check) it does seem to be a bit clumsy...

Still waiting for both units by the way. Hadn't expected the Russion one arrive yet, but the UK one could have made it. I figure I'll receive that one on tuesday.


We've had so many bank holidays recently the post is taking ages

With all these Bezels, Marquees, Sideart, Serial stickers etc, would it be possible do download them from the forum itself??

any reports on playing paperboy on the ipad?
I enjoyed it for a few hours but i don't think I'll come back to it often (no the reason is not because it's not MY iPhone).
Maybe if you could turn the bike just by bringing the iPhone up or down it would be more intuitive... just a thought.


in the settings you can change the control method to do this ;)
