I got one spare magnus launcher + Missle. Let me know if a pair doesn't turn up.
Cheers, I'll keep you in mind ;)
Guh. I had a spare Cliffjumper a while back.
BTW C, I haven't forgotten that Hound scan, (:
HAY! I asked you about Cliffjumper back in July! :(
I had this one back... last September.
I think I sold it for $10 or something. Sorry man...
Ahh, a YEAR back :p
what does FFN stand for?
Im not completely sure, but i think the G1 magnus and G1 magnus reissues have different missile launchers. The missiles are definitly different
Yeah, they are. As I recall, the original launchers had a round hole, while the reissue one had the groove we know from modern launchers. I believe if you cut out the plastic for the groove on the reissue launchers, the original missiles can fit and be fired.
FFN means Fit For Natalie (as in Natalie Portman, the actress). Since I am no longer a fan of hers (yet everybody knows me by this screename), I prefer to be called FFN.

I have a couple of spare G1 devastator bits too that I got from somewhere too.
Loss of interest. And Star Wars. Though to be fair, Hayden Christianson's Aura of Non-Acting affected everybodyQuote:

Funnily enough, I am buddhist.
So, MV75 has offered to help out with one launcher and missile. Can anybody please help me out with the launcher and missile? :(
Be warned that the original launcher also has slightly smaller pegs compared to the original which means that they fit in rather loosely on a reissue Magnus' shoulders. I stick blu-tac into the holes of my reissue Magnus' shoulder holes... but yeah... (-_-)
His acting as a romantic was bad though and is clearly his greatest weakness (although his portrayal of affection seemed improved to me in Jumper, so I think he is trying to work on it). But I thought his portrayal of Anakin Skywalker in other regards was alright and he's good at expressing angst and anger. My favourite moments of Christensen as Anakin were the times where he was being tempted or seduced by the Dark Side - I thought he played the fall of Anakin Skywalker and rise of Darth Vader quite well.Quote:

It was arguably worse than Carrie Fisher's attempt in Episode IV with her Princess Leia voice (thankfully both actresses stopped trying in their respective sequels). But I recently saw V For Vendetta and I have to say that Portman pulled off a fairly convincing English accent in that movie, but I must admit that until I saw that I'd written Portman off in terms of ever being able to act in an English accent.
I actually found an eBay seller flogging the launchers (sans missiles) for cheap prices. I emailed them asking if they had the missiles, too..... but they never replied and eventually other people bought all the launchers.
I hate when that happens. Unless they were in Texas and were running from the hurricane, of course :(
