    I'm 15. And at this age, certain things requiring financial help come up (saving for college, car, etc.) I really want the 1/4 Endo ( http://www.monstersinmotion.com/scifi/t2quarter.html ).

    My parents couldn't possibly understand, nor justify, me spending over $500, at least, for one figure, regardless of the fact it is around 19", made of polystone and metal... facts that also wouldn't matter to them, and not change their opinion. There's always getting a job and earning cash to work towards the Endoskeleton to rely on. I'm sure, given time, that I could think of some, but help from others always helps. So, seriously, what are some strategies and justifications could I use to persuade the right people?

    I just had a random brain-typing-coordination fart.

    I'm 15... I've no idea why I put 14. I wasn't paying attention to what I was typing.

    Not nearly as good looking as the 1/4 version.
    From the moment I took an interest in the 1/4 Endo, I knew there's the chance this almost certainly not work out, unfortunately. [img]frown.gif[/img]

    Sorry for the triple post, but it's starting to storm here... and lightning. I better get off before it runs in on my most important electronic device. Well... I don't know. It's a tie between my DVD player and TV. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
