    Will you be offering the repros to the group? I bought a Black widow a
couple of months ago and my CP is painted (like asteroids was).
The crappy part is that someone tried to clear coat it, and messe it all up. Ive
never see a painted CP on this game before... Only a standard sticker CPO (and I
saw 2 "standard" machines 3 weeks ago) Anyone ever see this?
