what does the blog say?


after translating it I got

"exclusive for the high and mighty at cibotl, many of which used to collect [expletive deleted] and try to forget, but they're still way cooler than you"

so I guess that's a yes

Thats funny, because even after PK posts, and translating the blog. There wasn't a mention of CIBOTL. Are you bitter because you were once there but never contributed and so didn't get asked back?

actually pal believe it or not I couldn't care less about not being on that board but it was rude to kick me out. As you say I didn't contribute so obviously it was of no loss to me. I just think it's really lame to have a private holier than though board and I'm far from the only one who feels this way but I guess I'm the only one with big enough balls to finally say it. I considered the goga a going away present I was permitted to purchase for myself and I thank you oh high and mighty one for allowing me that privelage.

ah, so these were offered on CIBOTL? I tried looking for that site recently and couldn't find it anymore...is it a private board now? Why all the secrecy about where these were sold? I'm just looking for info so no need to bite my head off.

Congrats to all who got them, Shit! I didn't even get any!

And I mostly did this simply for the love of the line.

I MUST say, I'm really sorry I didn't make enough of these to offer to everyone! If I could I would, and in the future I might.

These were rough for one person to cut paint and package while working a 10 hour a day job PLUS do customs for people.

But i should say I've perfected my manufacturing methods, so there's a really good possibility of more stuff in the future. I'm planning an expansion and more numbers.

So please don't be Haters yet!

Maybe i can get the LASK crew to drive down to LB for a weekend to help me out? heh heh.


:wink:


PK, like most others I think these are just fantastic!
What is irking me is that a post like this is made with a bourgoise attitude.
As they are discussed by those that received them, there is no inclination or devulding what the deal with them is other than stating to check the Exohead blog. Even though I received a pm explaining how these were obtained, others didn't and I waited to see if it would eventually be posted with more info. Much like the desire to get on the Anraku list, members would love the opportunity to get their hands on these beauties but were confronted with secrecy. I know it wasn't your post but if Loco or you explained/shared what type of release this was as you later did, up front, it would alleviate any frustration and not come across so pretentious.
Once again, FANTASTIC job and congratulations.

I've not had to explain where I've gotten any of my other toys before and those who PM'd me were informed that it was offered on a private board with the rest to be released here, unfortunately none made it here and some members of CIBOTL weren't able to secure these either.

Now if anybody wants to tell me where to score some Bemons. . .

Paul's beautiful work aside. I have to say private clubs are bullshit and if that is how people want to operate then maybe they should get off this board since it seems to go against the spirit in which it was made.

Anyone is welcome to have a private board with their friends, but bragging about it (which I've seen a few time, not in this thread) is incredibly lame and against the spirit of s7. I also wonder why people who have given up on skullbrain still post here.
