Sumdumgai Posted January 5, 2004 Posted January 5, 2004 I can't believe that someone is putting one of those up for auction. Just on principle alone, if someone puts a serious bid on that I will have to stab them to death with my chin! Quote
Mechamaniac Posted January 5, 2004 Posted January 5, 2004 God, I hate people who cant spell. missle origonal Anyone who would buy this item for this much from this mental midget deserves to get a missle right up their origonal ass. Quote
VF Strike Valk Posted January 5, 2004 Posted January 5, 2004 missiles misslead I feel sorry for the guy that bid on it...and 2.50 for shipping!? You can mail it in an envelope for 37 cents... <_< Quote

Anubis Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 Geez some people are absolute damn idiots, and so many of them make their way to e-bay. Quote
Father Jack Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 Geez some people are absolute damn idiots, and so many of them make their way to e-bay. Yes and I have been greatly entertained ever since. Quote

007-vf1 Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 I like to see if he flames this seller with negative feedback once he finds out what he paid for... Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 what?!?!? there were no missiles that came with the early jetfires, or were there? I've never heard of that before. Anyway I'm just trippin how someone would actually pay that much for just one missile. Just plain ridiculous!! Quote
Skull Leader Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 nah, all Jetfires had them.. if you didn't get them, your box was missing something. I HAD to email him about it... I couldn't take it anymore.... Quote
Pat Payne Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 (edited) mynameisjohne, I'd like to sell you a bridge in Brooklyn and oil rights in the Ozarks now.... Edited January 6, 2004 by Pat Payne Quote
kanata67 Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 nah, all Jetfires had them.. if you didn't get them, your box was missing something.I HAD to email him about it... I couldn't take it anymore.... I thought only the very early jetfires, aka matsushiro, were rhumored to come with missiles. I know the later ones don't as I have two in box, not counting the matsu I found a box for which doesn't count. I know the one I got as a kid sure didn't have missles. The jetfire gun that vermillion one sent me with the matsu did fire while the few others I had lying around didn't appear to have springs. I guess I could pull out all 10 jetfires and check all the guns I have but that seems like work . I'll try and do that tomorrow. One of these days I'll get around to setting up my website of useless 1/55 data and this would be good info for it. This auction does give me some ideas though which I will keep to myself Quote
MicronianDevil Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 (edited) Hmmm...since the guy who bid on the missile is an eBay newbie with no feedback, makes me wonder if the bid is a goof. Anyways, maybe the missiles to my Yammie 1/60s and 1/48 will be worth something down the road? Edited January 6, 2004 by MicronianDevil Quote
grassland Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 Is this a joke???? .................!!!!!.......?????? (lost for words) Quote
ComicKaze Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 Guys, this is only $9.99. This is very cheap for anything on ebay. No need to blow it out of proportion. This is indeed a rare part and it could be the last thing somebody needs to complete their 1/55. Sure Chunkies have lost most of their lustre but remember, that 1/55 Supers used to sell for $1000. Since this is a Jetfire part, it is actually very cheap for Transformers parts. Quote
robokochan Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 Truly amazing. I have a few 1/55 missiles laying around from the takatoku's. I beat that guy on his auction and start it at $3.00 I guess if you needed missiles you would be grateful to this auction. Rob MN Quote
Uxi Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 Wow, was never enough of a chunky monkey fan to know they used to fire missiles... I know my old Jetfire didn't. Pretty neat trick. The Yammie 1/48 should do that... especially since they bulked up the gunpod from the 1/60. Hmm... are the Takatoku missiles the same color as the Matsushiro? I imagine a missile from a Jetfire should've been black or red... Quote
Skull Leader Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 I have 4 or 5 sprues full just laying around somewhere that I'd GIVE away if it didn't take effort to mail them, just isn't worth it to me. Both jetfires I got when I was young (about a 2 year difference between the two... one was a Matsushiro, the other was not) had missiles with them. Quote
Daishi3500 Posted January 6, 2004 Posted January 6, 2004 (edited) mynameisjohne, I'd like to sell you a bridge in Brooklyn and oil rights in the Ozarks now.... I was watching tech tv, a ways back and heard a town was being sold, of course the definition of a town is having a post office. edit: link Edited January 6, 2004 by Daishi3500 Quote
phatslappy Posted January 7, 2004 Posted January 7, 2004 (edited) nothing surprises me. I've seen a jetfire gun sell for over 100 bucks. hell, I've even sold a gunpod for 75 bucks. MWAHAHAHAHHAHA> and it looks pretty much like mynameisjohne is a fake anyways. fake accounts rule! Edited January 7, 2004 by phatslappy Quote
