This picture is for those of you who wonder what the various types of metal grenades that have been available over the last three years look like, and more importantly, how they compare to each other...

I know, but if you can tell me, you get a cookie...

What would you guys do without me?

This is how the pic should look with the ONE TRUE GRENADE!!!:

Too funny

Which one is the odd one out again?



Harry.

I like this line-up!!! Thanks, Tony!!! You are one of the few collectors on this earth that has such a variety of these little jewels.

Tom

Sarge got it pretty much right, Ripper you some names right but the order wrong.

The grenades are (from left to right):
Deck 36 Hero (with resin removable cap and working plunger),
Nimmot,
Ob1Kenny,
DeanO Hero (with plastic cap and working plunger),
DeanO Stunt (with solid painted cap and white stripe).

They are all cool to handle and nice to display.

Cheers

Tony

Two questions:

Where's my cookie?

What kind is it? (make me happy!:twisted: )


Just goofing around, thanks Tony; I enjoyed this.
But where's YOUR "screen used" rusted grenade?;)

Ah ha!!!!

Are you saying that Tony has a 'real' grenade too, but isn't admitting to it?


He's just standing there letting a girl take all the flak?

No Lollypop, that one is ALL yours!;)

I am sure someone could whip me up one of those ...Ahem!..."screen used" ones, but at this point I am pretty right for grenades:) .

Very cool lineup Tony, and great pic.

Now were you also going to do a small review or comparison review on each or something to that effect?

I just wish I had a pic of one of style of grenades painted, as I haven't had the time to even paint my own box of grenades. Maybe someone else has had the time.

Is that a hint, Ken?

I'll get some pics up. Don't you worry your pretty little head over it.

Goffcorp

He was probably refering to me.

E...

Yes, it was a hint, but I didn't want to name names.

Besides Eric has a box too and he hasn't painted his yet either.

I finally went out to see Kenny, and got the airsoft verison of the grenades working in my Maruzen.

They are awesome. Thanks, Kenny.

Ummm...no problem. I have only mentioned the scaled down airsoft version to a small hand full of people. But since you brought it up, here is a pic for everyone. Full size grenade in the middle and airsoft shot-shell version on the outsides.

I did a very small run of these and had a few problems with getting them to eject properly. But with talking to a few people here and there and finally doing an extensive test on Even's airsoft shotgun. I think I finally have a decent working stunt version that adds lots of fun to the PR.


Also, while I am on and on this topic. I finally got the chance to play around with a real full size shotgun. And play with my solid aluminum grenades. Man, was that ever fun, loading the solid stunt grenades in the gun and racking it bad to eject them. It was a rush as the shells hit the floor. OK, we tried eject them over carpet when we could and they got a bit scratched up and such. But that is why I made them the way they are, just lot's of fun.

Sweet! I was wondering when I'd hear something about the AS version.

Looks good Ken!

Rook
Visit Rook's Castle, I dare you! What's a matter McFly? Chicken?

Nice job Kevin.

I got AS grenades from DeanO a looooooong time ago and I love them, so I know how thrilled you must be with being able to rack AS grenades thru a maruzen.
