One item off the Bucket List!!!!!

Postby conscriptboris » Sun Jul 31, 2016 5:06 am

Hey all,

Something I have wanted to do on my list is to camp out early and get something new, be the first one! Sounds stupid, but I wanted to see if it felt that good. I always thought it would be some kind of tech, however......

I queued from 0500 at the FW open day, and guys were there already !!!!! Staked out with my coffe, smokes and a camping chair wrapped in warm kit.

And, I was successfully the first person to buy the production Stormbird! YAY!

Bought some other models, mastodon, figs, and couple of leviathans, all in all an expensive run, however, and IPhone bought day one that has a shelf life of 2yrs would have cost the same as a stormbird :D

Regards,

Elvis
