Re: Mad Dogs and Englishmen (6.14)

This episode contains what may be the only instance of a plausible "hotwiring" procedure in TV/movie history. Notice that there were two separate steps, first a permanent electrical connection was made, which he did in the engine compartment, and then a temporary electrical connection was made, whic...

Re: Coops beer T-shirts

Man, that looks good! :shock: Excellent work! But we've come to expect nothing less from MR. Sounds like a good plan for distribution also. Will be watching for notification. That ink looks perfect and I can't imagine it actually looking better in person, but again, I'll take your word for it! :mag...

Coops beer T-shirts

(Continued from this thread: link .) http://i.imgur.com/5w1CpZi.jpg http://i.imgur.com/pJQY1Yf.jpg This metallic copper ink is beautiful. The pictures don't do it justice, nor do they quite capture its actual shade of color. In real life it is very much the color of copper, such as a new penny (whic...

Re: Death and Taxes (7.6)

I hated Miami Vice , so I didn't like this episode either. Also, the killer had an incredibly annoying voice, annoying laugh, and annoying style of talking; not to mention he had an annoying face with an annoying gap between his teeth that the annoying camera man decided to constantly zoom in on. I ...

Re: A.A.P.I. (7.5)

I did notice a couple of flubs not otherwise posted here: during the shootout Magnum’s second gunshot at the 30:45 has no muzzle flash. He fired the gun. If you watch frame-by-frame with the picture brightened, you can see him pull the trigger and just make out the motion blur of the slide starting...

Re: Auction Closing Today: 1983 Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvo

I have always, and still do, think these cars have some of the best lines ever conceived for an automobile. The two cars which I think have the best body styles ever are: Ferrari 308 (and all other models which share that fundamental body style) and the second-generation ('68 to '70) Dodge Charger ...

Re: Auction Closing Today: 1983 Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvo

The late Vic Firth had a red Ferrari 308 GTS. I don't know exactly what year it was, but I'd guess late '70s. It looked exactly like the MPI season 1 Ferrari, including having real tires, i.e., ones with a substantial sidewall (70-series if I had to guess), instead of the more "low profile" tires of...

Re: Pic of Coops beer 6 pack !!!!!!!!!!!

No, just yanking whoevers leg that might have picked up on that. :D Same label on the reverse. Although it would be cool if there were a different rear label, that that would be on the back of the shirt..... That would be cool, but it would also be twice the job, i.e., two vector files, two film po...

Re:

Regarding the other Ferrari's color, here is a screen shot: http://magnum-mania.com/images/6_13_y_full.jpg I have, uh, "issues" with certain colors (particularly green/grey), so I have no idea what color it is. :? And the Ferrari is definitely green. That looks gray to the point of almost being bla...

Re:

The odd part about the whole thing was that Beta was (and actually still is) the higher quality of videotape recording/playback. In comparable VCRs, VHS and Betamax are virtually indistinguishable in terms of quality (you would need sensitive instruments to tell the difference). Betamax got a reput...

Anyone who wants a Coops T-shirt when/if they get printed, please send me a PM to let me know (if you have already mentioned in this thread that you want one, please send me a PM anyway so I can have everything in one place), and let me know what size you want. I only have size XL onhand, but I may ...

WOW - Great work MaximRecoil!!!!!! The bottle label looks spot on - mystery solved! I'm sure you will sell quite a few shirts here. Another mystery......

Re: Pic of Coops beer 6 pack !!!!!!!!!!!

Ink looks like a very good match. If you'd like to collect funds to help offset the cost of the ink/supplies, I'd be willing to pitch in if I can get a shirt out of it! 8) Thanks. If you buy a shirt, that alone will be enough to offset the cost somewhat. In another thread someone linked to these Ma...

That Coops label looks great! Nice work to be sure. Thanks for the info on the pistols...I'll keep what I've got for now, and watch for a good deal on a 9mm 1911 A1 "look-a-like" :lol: Looking forward to your announcement of being ready to start squeegeeing! :magnum: I ordered a quart of the Intern...
