I'm curious; what is AGD doing with the extra valves that are being turned in for X-Valves? As far as I understand, almost all the parts are not compatible, so they aren't being used for X-Valves...they aren't selling any Classic style Mags anymore, so that can't be it...are they just collecting in a closet (or attic) somewhere, waiting to be put on Ebay some day? Or melted in a large pot, which they plan to pour into a gigantic mold of something...perhaps they are creating a huge mechanical beast that is pneumatically driven. I dunno, but it seems to come up in my head pretty often. Can anyone indulge me here?

All the valves are melted down. There was actually a picture way back in the day of someone who had done an AGD factory tour and they had a shot of a heap of valves that had been turned it.

Its sad to think of all those valves getting destroyed since the only thing that I could imagine being wrong with them involve a bad O-ring.

Here was AGD's response to a similar question way back in the day!

I use them to power my Flux Capacitor when I time travel. They are like frequent flier miles.
