My holy grail, so to speak

Post by The Black Major »

Well, after 28 years, I've finally managed to track down an intact ATC stretcher and thanks to nectar points, it only actually cost me £6.07 on eBay! My ATC is finally complete!

Got me thinking too, what's everyone else's one elusive piece? Figure, vehicle, part or accessory?

Nicey, I think mine will be Heavy Metal´s mic and weapon, maybe even the Rumbler grey gun (same mold as Heavy Metal).

AF it has to be the Boat patrol picture box and Joe wise probably the Brazilian Letal figure.
I will carry on hunting but probably wouldn't be able to afford them even if I found them :(

I will keep hunting though and enjoy every minute of it.
Not here for a long time, just here for a good time.

Well done! Always nice to get that piece you've been after, even better when it doesn't cost an arm and a leg :)

I still need a pair of mint blue Defiant doors, a fantail railing from the USS Flagg and the antenna from the weapon transport! (4 years and I still don't have it)

Mine was the German barons helmet. But I finally got one a while ago.

I'm thinking of starting a quest for the actual Holy Grail now you mention it. You know, like King Arthur. I mean how hard can it be to find the cup of Christ? I've had two Tiger Force Blizzards in the past. Plus I've seen Indiana Jones III like a million times.

The Babelfish disproves Gods existence, ergo the Holy Grail as well.

The bane of my existence is Recondo's Oar. I have never seen one on ebay, fuckit, now pour salt into my open wound please.

The ones that sh*t me...... AF5, Command Centre and the big two figures, Moondancer and Dolphin.

I'm up for that. I've seen Monty Python and if they can hunt for it, it can't be that difficult. Though let's not go to Camelot, 'tis a silly place!

My next quest, will have to be getting all the extra parts for my command centre. The red guns, cameras, search light, flag etc. As long as it doesn't take me another 28 years!

We're troops of the Red Shadows
We dance whene'er we're able
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork impeccable.
We dine well here in Castle Arlberg
We eat ham and jam and spamburgers.

We're troops of the Red Shadows
Our shows are formidable
But many times we're given rhymes
That are quite unsingable
We're opera mad in Arlberg, not.
We sing from the diaphragm a lot.

In war we're tough and able.
Quite indefatigable
Between our quests in sequin vests
And impersonate Grant Campbell.
It's a busy life in Arlberg.

SINGLE MAN
I have to push the Shadowtrak a lot.

:lol: That chant reminded me to the Iron Grenadiers' canon chant.
