I loved the video Nick.

Thanks.

Thanks Charlie, always fun when the kids enjoy the toys!

Elegant.

Did Jin make it?

I rather think that Jin is just a member of a group that does the manufacturing, and that he is one of possibly a few different members of the group that acts as an outlet for the group. Don't know if he "buys" from the group wholesale, thus acting as a middleman distributor, or if he is actually acting as a frontman for the group.

In any event, he or they often start the sale of a new product offering deep discounts, acting in the capacity of loss-leaders and trial balloons, to gin up public interest, then eventually settle into a fixed price point that works for them over the long haul.

I've seriously considered buying one of these for awhile,  just never hit the button. Do you have a video of it in operation Nick?

I tried to get a video, but now it’s stuck in the ceiling   



Haha, no, but I hope to give it a run some time in the next couple days… I definitely think it’s a good buy if you get one in the $70 range

Nick:

Sounds like you will need to buy another one to rescue the one stuck from the ceiling!

Nick:

I couldn't recall if you ever made a video of this one from Jin.

It doesn't look like it has ever been steamed.

A really nice model.

I am really enjoying your 365 day challenge.  I look forward to finally making it to MN to see your collection in person.

Cheers,
Charlie
