I'm trying to take a step back and get some perspective on this.

I'm off to Target ... I have this bad feeling I'm going to find everything I'm looking for. It's one of those days where the TF distribution God is trying to kill me.

Supposedly my wife's cousin is going to Kowloon this week to check things out. I'll report back if there's any news.

well, you have financial backers if you need them
Black bootlegged Prime ... what's stopping them from doing all sorts of crazy stuff? Can you imagine the color combos? All white? Metallic Chrome? Metallic Gold?
This could get really expensive sooner than later.

The desire to have a KO Prime may have crossed the fine line into a bad place. I don't want to go there. That's when a collection turns from a harmless hobby into a negative obsession.

Well....the custom exhaust on my car that I had done six months ago fell apart Sunday, and I had to get it fixed today. That's $500 I'm not going to be spending on toys 
At least I got the first four bubble package Alts yesterday.
