Okay, I'm starting a sweep.

To be in it, pick the day and hour you think Lex will be born, and reply with it in comments. You can't pick the same day and time that somebody else has put down.

Nearest correct answer will get naming rights be sent a chocolate cigar. Said chocolate cigar may even taste okay, but no promises as I haven't received them yet.

Oh, sorry, didn't notice the time thing. Um, let's say 8pm.

($30 plus postage? Sounds good. When you get a chance to scratch after racing Shaz to the hosptial this arvo, holding her hand for hours, coming home in the wee hours to do all sorts of getting-ready things, having a nice sleep -- your last for a very long time, I might add -- and going back out to see Shaz and Lex tomorrow morning, you can let me know how much the total will be and what your PayPal is. I'll send it to you, then you can pack it up and send it out in a few weeks, which will be the next time you have a chance to scratch. So Mote It Be. ;}P> )

Oh, just in case I was clear in my mind, not in the above reply, the $30 covers only one defective RC dalek, not a pair.

Though naturally if you still wanted one, I'd pick one that was mostly operational i.e. try to find one where it can move but not shoot.

Ah, bugger. Oh well, thanks anyway! I appreciate the offer, even if I can't really justify the cost.

Yeah, sorry matey. The box sets have come down in price from their original $75 cost price to me because they are a discontinued line, and they tend not to sell because of all the issues. Basically, I'm the only one silly enough to bother testing them all :)

But if you look about online, you can sometimes find them dirt cheap. I picked up my one and only Cyber Leader when I saw a battlepack online where the total cost to me would be $50 including postage from the US. Cheaper than my cost price.
