Great collection of stuff Flatout!!

I love the backpack and feel the same about the ACIII rucksack - really want one to use too...

The letter opener is gorgeous and envy the collection of Killzone kit...

Thanks Mags

Yeah the backpack is really nice, it is very well made. I have seen that rucksack and it is awesome.


The letter opener is far bigger then I thought, and Killzone Mercenary had more stuff then I thought it would.



I found this pic of the bag and there is an awesome chest in it... has any seen one of these?:

A few members have seen those very close... It was an Aus charity auction - 9 sets of AC stuff over 9 weeks - the chests were individually numbered

Turns out the chest - which was the main bit we all lusted after - was a pretty cheap to obtain standard leather chest embossed with the AC3 logo and the chest number

I wouldn't say the chests were embossed with the AC logo and numbering

Looked far more like a cheap silk screen transfer or something

Embossing leather or fabric in general is more complex

They usually press/burn leather for logos don't they?

If they were trying to do it in the proper fashion yes

this of course was done quite cheaply it would seem

Yes I know

I've just been very nitpicky as of late for whatever reason

Didn't mean to take it out on Maggiemoo though

Hmm whipping....

Anyways no reason to destroy a beauty like a Mirror's edge over such slight a mistake

Just send it to me instead

Ah don't worry... I can take it...

Sadly the Mirror's Edge steel was built of weaker stuff...
