				| My water pistols arrived today. 
 Here is a pic of a water pistol (top) next to an all metal replica (middle) and my shooter (bottom).
 
 
 
 Second pic is of the packaging.
 
 Third pic is just for amusement sake.

 I see that now. What a scam. Are they losing market share and needing funds? Wow, from free to 100/yr.

 You have to join at the FOUR HUNDRED DOLLAR PER YEAR level to enable 3rd party photo hosting.
   
 Any recommended alternatives?

 You can send 'em my way. I'll toss 'em up and shoot you back the links so you can amend your original post.

				| Thanks to Veektohr, here are the pics. 
 My watergun, full metal replica, and my shooter which is a merging of a full metal replica and a real Charter Arms Bulldog.
 
 
   
 The watergun packaging.

				| I just got my shipment from HLJ (Hobby Link Japan). I paid a total of 3200yen ($30 USD) for both the Clear Black and Clear Silver versions plus shipping to Arizona, USA. These things are really cool!

				| I got mine this week, smoke acrylic with blue grips. Arrived from Hobby Link Japan in 5 days. I'm not bothered what colour it is though. I only wanted it so I could wet-form a leather holster around it without messing up my prized Sidkit. |  |

				| Got mine yesterday, limited black edition. Wasn't cheap... 
 
   
 
   
 
   
 
   
 I had to look up on the Youtube video to understand how the trigger works (it was very slightly stuck and I didn't want to break anything, but now it's fine)
 
 btw, Imgur (just registered) is a good replacement for Photobucket which I won't continue to use.
