Just look at museums, a bunch of cool stuff just sitting around to be looked at...

I didn't mean to make it sound that way at all, so I apologize...as I'm very sure he enjoys them I mean who wouldn't, right?

Like I said, I meant no disrespect at all. I simply brought the pics over to share with everyone, as I was in total awe of all the cool stuff in one room, and at the time I was a little disappointed that someone would have so many rare parts, and (seemingly) not use them. But, I do not know what he does with them, nor do I know if he actually uses them from time to time, so I admitted that his collection was very cool (out of pure jealousy...as I would love to have such a collection) and of course it is anyone's right to buy and keep whatever they please

Hopefully he sees this thread at some point, as it should be a compliment to him that we all admire his fine collection!

Yea Mike is a nice guy for sure. I have purchased a few things from him myself, including VBS. He probably has $100K worth of R/C stuff burried in his house, and most of it is UE. He has built some of the most impressive SuperMaxx projects in our hobby. He use to be on UE & RCM daily, but he took ill a couple of years ago and nearly vanished from the R/C net. He still lurks about in here some days, but not like he use to. If you are interested in buying anything from him shoot him a PM and you never know what he may be willing to let go of. When life throws serious medical issues at you the value of material items tends to deminish.
