Looking at the one on the Amalgam web it costs £2999, if people think they'll be getting anything like a 3k model as a partwork model they need a lobotomy, more likely it will be a hundred quid's worth of a half baked effort laugh

The lure seems to be in falling for their hype, and being able to pay weekly rather than an all in one go outlay for such a model.

I can't say I've ever seen anything in Partworks that you would describe as being a 'quality' item let alone being accurate yet they describe their items as such, offering's seem to be re-hashed cheapo made versions but sold at a very high overall cost.

Its very much a case of horses for courses, some people love em, some people once sampled never go that route again, there's certainly plenty of bad vibes about them around the net, there's generally no smoke without fire and its very much a case of buyer beware rolleyes
