Curious about a few things
My name is David Reeves, I live in Miami Florida USA and I’m a HUGE Original MMPR fan. I saw the photos online and I have to say:
The Karts from PR Turbo
The Blue and Yellow Shark cycles
And the Trex and Dragonzord in Fighting mode outfits are AWESOME
How come you guys don’t carry the other Shark cycles and Dino Zords.
Where is this Museum, and are all the Original MMPR stuff the original stuff from the series.
What about any monster outfits, do you guys carry those, and is there any other place like this in the world.
This last question may be stupid but I have to ask. If one came and offered to purchase (oh I don’t know) one of the shark cycles how much would one have to pay (converted to USD) and have it shipped to the states.
