The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent.

A BAR? I mean it's a bot/BAT, it could double up a pair MG42s like Arnie with the mini--gun in T2.

I can't believe that.

The figures that The Hun, and Fritz put out are far superior to that; and they only fetch 25-40 bucks, right?

That's insane.

The worst part (for a history nerd) is that the "BOT" is carrying a B.A.R., and not an Stg 44 or an MG 42. I mean, it's a "Nazi BOT," for cripes sake. haha

the icing on the cake is that shipping is $31.50 to Canada. :lol:

It must be shill bidding, hoping someone real jumps in. Otherwise this makes zero sense. I wouldn't pay $2 for that thing. I"ve got an old medical droid lying around. I'll just go from there. And i have plenty of mg 42's or stg 44's i could use. :lol:

If you guys think that's high, check this one out, one of his finished auctions.

If people are really paying, this guy's got a good gig going...

One i may have to jump on, i can make this crap easy.

If he can sell his figures for that price, more power to him. I'm glad to see someone, make a few bucks for their art. One thing I noticed on his website is that he provides ebay links to custom action figures by other sellers as well. Very cool of him to help fellow customizers out.

He is one of the best builders around. You need to look at his history of figures, also look at the recipes, there amazing.
