Yeah, Nach's celebrity look-alikes are badass. Mine is Adam from Mythbusters.

You are lucky. I always get confused with a Macy's Parade ballon.

I really gotta stop looking at sites like vapor Joe and the apv forum. I keep seeing these really cheap mods and thinking, hey for 25 bucks why not? Then i remember how much better quality this one will be and the reasons why i chose it in the first place. I never set out to be a collector. I only need a couple mods to keep me happy, but i want those mods to be of the highest quality. Even some of the other "high end" mod don't stack up as nice when compared to the features of the ELA. I'm afraid I've been spoiled and i haven't even recieved mine yet! I have only one Chinese mod, and after i get my ELA that one goes in the classifieds as well.

I may love my filipino drippers, but I care nothing for their mods. Quality control is a huge issue. Getting a mod from the philippines is a gamble. Sometimes you win and sometimes you fall short, major.

I own 1 filipino mod and that is only cause it was a gift. Everything else is american made! I am not spending another penny on another mod from any other country besides the united states. Not even if it is a dna 20 bottom feeder, ha ha and I want one of those BAD!

A bit off topic I guess. I've been lusting after the DNA20 Bogger Box for a while. That and an ELA. I'd probably be happy. For a while. Probably.

Glad you got one that was in good condition.I tend to stay away from phillipino mods kind of the same way i stear clear of china knock offs.That is sad too because of the only two actual mods from there i saw,should not have left for delivery.I can't understand how there RBAs can be so great,.....yet,...there mods are not on the same level???

cant help but thinking when I saw your name : Manacop, I thought of a made for Sci-Fi channel movie : MANACOP, part man, part cop CYBORG. I hope that didnt offend you. I watch too much TV

no you didnt offend me, I've heard it a thousand times.

even on my freelance days when I was a motorsports photog. the credit on my photos was Chris Robocop Manacop. apparently the editors thought that was hilarious. Oh well I guess they kept the money coming so I couldnt complain

The city's last hope: Manacop, the manticore cop. He's part lion, part scorpion, and all pain. Criminals, you have the right to bleeeeed. Sundays this fall, only on Sci-Fi.

Been there, done that, got a refund, won't do that again! I took the money and purchased 2 reos when I got my money back, well okay that is a lie, I purchased 3 reos. :D

Batch 1 will have taken about a month to ship from start to finish, and batch 2 is similar size. I'd guess parts will finish getting machined by the end of the month, then assembly and shipping of the dregs of batch 2 by the end of July. That's my guess, anyway.

A month?!! Math must not be a required course in Tennessee.... LMAO! Shipping started on 05/09. I received a shipping notice on Monday and I'm order 146xx. USPS still just shows being notified. That means they printed the label but haven't actually shipped anything. At this rate they will be done shipping by Oh, sometime around Christmas.
