    Don't worry, you're not alone. I bought one too. But from kawsone. This is my 2nd favorite of the 4 footers. I think it's the most "artsy" of the group. But if anyone wants to trade for the Brown Non-Dissected 4 footer let me know.

    Toybot: Will do.

    Jordan: It's my favorite of the six. By the way, I remember you from the Ningyoushi message board way back in the day. I only lurked (I rarely post anything anywhere) but if I recall correctly, you've been balling for a while.

    @symbebekos: I miss the ol' Ning Boards! I still keep in touch with some of the regulars from there. Imagine a board with ZERO flippers and ZERO punk ass kids.

    Hey, I was there. I remember the sinking feeling of dread when I realized the KR boards were the only game in town. I'll never forget JLamK's pix of that Bathing Ape table made - so intense. Other memories from that time are like rthq.com, Tokion magazine being good, etc etc. Nostalgia trip!

    Here he is, sorry about the shitty iphone pic. I'm keeping him in the condom until I figure out my display situation. Didn't Frank Kozik have a plexiglass box made for his? anyone remember anything about that?

    That seems reasonable, although the idea of spending any more $$ makes me want to kill myself. I seem to remember it had holes in the top for venting or something?

    I was not the one who found it, but if I did the next pick would have been us waving from a cab as we rode off to my house like I had grabbed what was ever left in the bar after last call...
