p.p..parts can we um see if we can use a friend of mines exstinceive parts photos

www.robotmonstertoys.com (yarg!! dang you Walter)

ok heres the scoop RMT had good pics of every G1 part known
becase it was a bussness he used to deal in G1 parts
something happen persnaly and he droped out and drop off the face of the earth
I knew him becase I used to live next door to him

And now it seems if he let the site slide almost into oblivion

So I say email him ask to use his parts database

Or Ask www.cobraislandtoys.com thay have his pemisson to use the pics as well

Hmm, that's an interesting angle, and if he agrees I'm sure we could make use of some of his photos. But I poked through them a bit, and most of them don't really meet our quality requirements. Generally we want images that are higher resolution, sharper, more brightly lit, and have pure white backgrounds. I'd really much rather encourage the site's users to chip in with photos of their own!

Uppercase has gotten things off to a great start--check out his part photos:

Yeah the only thing holding me back on parts pics is money.
My poor 5.0 MPX camera blows at close range

Parts are easyer to photograph than TFs you just line the part up and click.
And my parts boxes are easyer to get to than my TFs are.
And I have some rare stuff to.

What is a pain is part variants. As you can see from RMT the truble we can get into just on Ultra Magnus alone!

grr my spelling blows
