Bunny's AGD Collection | AGDE Pallet Thread | Just added: Electric Skies RT

[JonBon (Bonich) AGDE]

Thanks for dropping by! I'm glad you still remembered your password for the site, you've been a member since 2001 and your 3rd post is on my thread in 2014. I feel honored... I would love to hear about all of the history about each marker and part if you have the time. I'm actually bringing all of this equipment with me to Living Legends 2014 and would love to know the back story on each item I display. I'll try and get a few more pictures ready for everyone to drool over

Btw, thanks for working out a deal with John and I and getting everything packaged up and shipped to me.

Thank you .
I am away from home due to work a lot, so you have to be patient whilst I research, when I get home, I'll have to look thru files and see if I got any relevant pictures too.
But I promise I will try and explain as much as I can.
I have to be honest, when Jon Sos suggested we sold all of these items, I was enthusiastic to clear some space …..As we started to collect these bits of fantastic metal together, I started to get very melon coli…
For instance the RT with the swept back feed tube /warp .Number 169 … Tom gave me that. He gave Jon Sos and myself an RT each when they were first released, we literally stripped them before we shot them to see how they worked!!
169 has been my shirt number since, so I almost kept it back, along with the Purple mag , the Xmag etc etc ….
Jon Sos pondered me with a question “really? When are you going to use any of it again ?.....let it go to some one who will appreciate it “
Yup he was right …seeing all the stuff you have, I know you will.
I did keep one item back my first automag, I promised my son Wayne I would never sell it, so he could have it . He was 16 at the time, which was 16 years ago. So I kept my promise.
But I’ll tell you all as I see it and remember it.
Manike will no doubt be a a great source as we all three of us spent countless hours, discussing , tinkering , inventing machining when the Xmag was being born.
I remember in the cut’n’carve beginning of the Xmag , Jon sos Simon and myself did a Friday late nite , Saturday all day and Sunday all day on the first trials literally living in the machine room ….. Absolutely barmy but I suppose that’s what living paintball does to you! lol
Regards Jon Bon

Looks like I need to update this thread some more.... (I still need to add the Armada X, Jax Worrior build, Automag RT #62) For now I have a Planet Eclipse "Electric Skies" Automag RT. After compiling the Planet Eclipse Anodizing Thread I realized I needed to track down my favorite pattern from the original anodizings that P.E offered. I was able to find someone that was willing to sell one and I finally got in the mail after 5 months of shipping back and forth from Europe. I was a little worried I would never actually see this thing. It arrived in one piece and I'm glad the deal actually worked out. I do need to replace the cut trigger frame ASAP.

P.E Electric Skies Automag RT:

That is an awesome splash pattern. I don't know if I've seen that combo before. So what are you going to replace the cut trigger frame with so you can keep the splash trigger? A benchmark frame or an I-Frame?

I didn't know how hard it would be to find a Planet Eclipse Automag RT. I have only seen three so far in my search. A banzai green that showed up not too long ago, this electric skies RT, and a fire RT. All of the other colors are from the smear and nickel kits that AGE released years ago.

I have a chrome I-Frame that I need drilled for an Automag RT. I would rather find a period correct benchmark frame though. (I think that is what they came with from P.E)

OMG!! Soo many SFL emags. Damn, shocktech is my favorite company sorry to say, then AGD. I have so many ST cockers. What would be really great is a SFL emag. I would love to have that dust red but really any would do. I just have to ask would you consider selling any of.them down the road?

[Sk8ermog]

I have a factory chromed Iframe with factory drilled large back hole for the banjo if you are interested. I do believe you are right in that they would have had benchmark frames before having an Iframe. I have a benchmark 2x frame, but it says Micromag on it do it wouldnt match 100% Great find non-the-less.

I sold the dust blue and dust red sfl emags years ago. I still have the orange, red & black, and now the "maximmag" I never really think about selling, but sometimes I randomly sell some of my collection. You just have to be on the look out

Sk8ermog, if I don't find one i'll send you a message.
