Silas5150 Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 Finally. Madbull is refusing to respond to my e-mails, so I guess it's a good thing that someone is responding. Link to post Share on other sites

Be patient, its better to wait for a good product than rush for a mediocre one guys. Link to post Share on other sites
mobius9 Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 yeah, but thats what we were saying over a year ago... I wish they would just give a firm release date, not matter how far down the line, and actually stick to it for once. I just hope all the waiting is worth it. Link to post Share on other sites
theairsoftdude Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 well a few personal correspondance with madbull past few days, the thing will come within the next two weeks. Be patient, its better to wait for a good product than rush for a mediocre one guys. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Okay, I will give you the most awesome thing in the airsoft world in 10 days. I mean 35. Errrrrr... how bout 100? Never mind, 126. And scratch out the fully auto. You know what? Our product is not going to be that good. We decided not to release thatt many.

I'm 100% certain that some entrepid airsofter will figure out a way to get it to work. It's, just like the blasted gearbox, just a matter of time. Link to post Share on other sites
suntex01 Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 yeah well, they're kinda busy with lots of stuff going on right now both personal and company stuff. But dude you guys need some patience, developing a new product isn't easy like you guys think. Unexpected things pop up here and there, and sometimes an exact date just won't cut it. Give them a little break and for once act like a grown up and stop whining like a kid. Link to post Share on other sites
Death By Cadbury Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 things pop up yes, but you dont go around talking about how youre going to remake the airsoft world in 7 days, overadvertise your budget, then fall off the radar when you dont deliver to the expectations you created yourself! this thing is gonna be a blip on the airsoft radar. fairly warned, be thee, says I.

freq88 Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 I agree that it is very unfair to ask for an exact date when you're at the mercy of your parts supplier. However, it is also unfair to the consumers to say "in the next 2 weeks" for several months. IIRC Madbull did state to someone in this thread that they just want to release the product and move on to other more profitable items. Which leads me to believe that this is a dead end product. They will probably only produce enough to fill all preorders and move on. I do applaud them for producing an item that in all likelihood is losing them money just to fullfill a promise. And also to applaud them for doing it right even though it more then likely be discontinued shortly thereafter. I however am quite content to have not preordered or desire it anymore. I'm just curious to see how it works and will see it as a mere novelty item. Link to post Share on other sites
sMashPiranha Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 I hope they make at least enough for me to get one without having to preorder. I want to know if it's any good before I put down hard earned money for it, then if it is I'm definitely getting one. Link to post Share on other sites
k_man Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Another week to wait. I've only been waiting a uear so not as bad as some that have been there from the begining. Link to post Share on other sites
elrey Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Could you people stop reviving this thread just to say that you're still waiting? Because some of us think that it's actually been released when there are new posts in it. Link to post Share on other sites
nighthawk1221 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 whoaa i was searching around for some stuff and i found some new pictures of the m470 enjoi for the actual site i got it from click here i like how they employed the screw at the bottom to attach a 12g c02 caplet. quick changing will actually be possible. but i still wonder about the remote line adapter cuz i don't see it in the pictures Link to post Share on other sites
Donut Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 I've also got a brief manual of the M470, but it's in pdf format... how do I show/upload it? Link to post Share on other sites

Death By Cadbury Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 I cant wait to see what after-sale support is gonna be like for these things when users with great expectations get their hands on them. Link to post Share on other sites
mobius9 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 ***CREDITS TO DONUT FOR THIS PDF*** according to the manual, it seems as if the actual problems weren't with the gearbox, but with the nozzle cycle or feeding and hopup. http://teamof.com/470manual.pdf they gave a special shoutout to the arnies users, how sweet maby in an updated design they will do like PDI and make the hopup integrated into the mechbox?

Silas5150 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Now the only big factor is the release date. I really hope that it comes out in time for Ash Bash. Link to post Share on other sites
