here's a brain fart... anyone tried calling Tamiya America, Kyosho America, or any of these other companies and listening to how the operator answers the phone. Try it, it works... The Tamiya America # says ta-mee-ya.

Master Tekin? Do I need to offer up a sacrifice or cover my eyes?

Seriously, you guys should create a Tekin "Master" series of electronics if that's what you really call him. You could sit around and have a group giggle every time you see it written somewhere.

Since we're here, how do you guys pronounce "Much More?" Those wacky Koreans, trying to impose their silly words on us.
