I was having some issues earlier with the drop, my account, and payment issues. While talking to MD I asked what the deal was with all of the sets (which ones were getting made even though they didn't hit MOQ, etc) since I was charged for all of them and got this responseAs to the second question, GMK Electronic Design GMBH is a reputable firm known for quality and design. We will have to see what happens during the manufacturing process. I wish I had a better answer. So pretty much in line with what has been discussed.Something else I thought was interesting. We aren't getting the 150 price break for Salty. I showed the guy I was talking to the picture that had the most up to date/recent information about how many/what sets were sold, and what MOQs/price drops were hit.Show ImageSo that picture clearly shows that 193 Salty kits were sold - and that the price break of 29.99 was reached. However, when I asked the guy why I was charged 34.99 I received this answer:When the drop page was written it didn't really clarify it as much as I would have hoped.So, there are two additional kits, both in the color "salty" basically two different runs of manufacture. When the manufacturer has to change from one style or color to another that takes time and resources. That's why they offer the discount when they reach a quantity threshold because of the reduced cost in not having to switch thing up as much. Make sense? So, for the discount to apply each style/ color would need to hit that threshold. Since one hit 113 and the other 79, neither hit the 150 needed to apply a discount to either style.It's only 5$ so I'm not too worried about it. Just figured I would share though because it seemed kind of weird.
Does that mean we can expect this to arrive before the estimated ship date of April?
Will start production in 2 weeks?! Does that mean we can expect this to arrive before the estimated ship date of April?

Tho i don't think Carbon will ship prior April because the order is quite large.

Regret starts to kick in real hard now. I wish I had pulled the trigger back then . Want to buy extra spot for anything boneyard related (boneyard base, boneyard alphas, etc.) Willing to pay handsome price, especially umka mods, since I know only 50 sets of those were made. Please help!
Can you do some umka mods with bone?

Here you are Show ImageHoneymilk (Umka + Beezarre) 2 by T0mb3ry, auf FlickrI am done for today with photos. My workroom and my amateur photo studio is a mess right now.
How about some umka with bone
You probably mean reverse Bone, because i've done photos with Umka and Bone before ) Reverse Bone would be Umka with Boneyard alphas.
Looking forward to to seeing photos of reverse bone today!

Sorry should've been more clear. Umka mods + Boneyard alphas and Umka mods + Blue Cadet alphas were my ultimate plan .
