Considering the concepts designed over the years my only WTF with this is... how the hell are the casings going to eject?

In a sense I really hope that's a scam ?

....unless I'm missing something?

I often wonder if shops would refuse to two tone some items, or try and talk them out of it. But I suppose money is money.

I can see the glow on that from orbit.

If they are that sensitive then they can just not offer a two tone service. (Either at all or against particular RIFs)

Airsoft and airsoft retailers would not exist in the UK without the VCRA two tone IF exemption 

This ‘sensitivity’ is similar to collectors thoughts over Sci Fi / geeky collectibles etc.

At a comicon this weekend we had a conversation with another trader/collector, he is very happy when he sells an item to a child or someone that will open the box - supply & demand.  

New ‘collectibles’ will remain worthless if everyone locks them away in glass cabinets and in attics waiting to get rich.  Old ‘collectables’ appreciate in value every time one gets used and depreciate in value everytime a widow advertises a complete collection.

I know a collector/trader in Pops figures.  He tells me that he isnt speaking to me, but he clearly is otherwise he couldn’t keep telling me that he isn’t speaking to me.

I bought a rare set of Pops figures with a vehicle, dismantled the vehicle and mounted them on an RC chassis. There were tears in his eyes.

He should be thanking me for increasing the value of the rest of them

A retailed two tone IF is an entry point for new player, it expands the market.  Many can easily be returned to RIF status at a later date
