I'm in the process of getting an online store open, and one of the ideas I had was to have a "Customs Resources" section on the site with parts(i.e.:KOs, junker TFs, loose weapons and parts, and commonly used non TF parts and tools) all in one place for ease of selection. I was wandering if the mod community at large would be interested in a store that offered that service or if there is one like that already and i missed it?

I'm sure there would be many people who could take advantage of that service. For me, there's a small hobby shop nearby that sells gundam kits, old, unwanted and forgotten transformers (~$4 a piece) and such, so i've been getting my parts and some TFs there, but I'm sure most people do not have this kind of store near by. I hope your business turns out well! I'll check it out when its up and running.

I doubt it'd be a huge success but if you start it PM me! Selling ball joints would be really good - the only place I know of is Hobby Link Japan. As I live in the UK it takes them weeks to post to me. They aren't cheap either.

well that is just one of the sections we are planning to have in the store but it was something we were thinking about

this could really help me i got a animated prowl (not with the samurai armor) and the thumbs broke off and he can't hold his weapons :-(

. So yea this could help me.

I'll keep that in mind and let you know if I acquire a junker TFA prowl in my quest for stock. And I'll post the link as soon as we open.

I think this would be a success. Just offer it in TFW2005.com as well in the radicons section. I can't find anything I need and that's pretty much why I don't 'kitbash' and only repaint instead.

I would definitely check it out and buy stuff! Go for it...let me take up some stock cheap on your way up huh? B-)

lol. Now shadow you know that cheep is a relative term. But sure my prices will be fair.

No man, I'm not talking about your prices on goods though I hope they are good as well, I am talking about 'shares' like I want to buy some of your stock while you are starting so that when your business expands and gets huge, I can collect and retire on the investment!! :grin:

Loose weapons is a damn good idea. I've spent hours scouring ebay for small guns without much success. I just hope your shipping to the UK is cheap!

Well, I will be keeping my shipping costs as low as possible.
