Well, he was in the workshop working on the newly aquired 7740, and he took the camera to take a picture of it as he always does with a fresh machine.
The towing hitch would not come off and his policy is :-
If it jams
Force it
If it breaks
It needed replacing
Following this policy, he was using the eight and a half pound sledgehammer to " Force it " and he broke it.
Having spent three hours trying to remove it by taking about thirty bolts out, he was a little irritated when it broke, the sledgehammer went flying across the workshop and hit the bench that the camera was sat on, the resulting force made the bench, along with the camera and a rather heavy box of spanners, collapse. The camera landed before the box of spanners .................
Are we getting the picture of what happened ..............

I will tell you what ....................
YOU try explaining that to him after three hours of trying not to break it, and then it jams up .............................

Go on Soundwave you can tell him. Mind you, I would have reacted in exactly the same way.

Instant removal ......

The pohotos he does manage to take before the camera meets its death are actually very good .........................

How could I have known that the bench would colapse, it was not my fault

Matt,
my shipment got through, it was held up in customs, but they eventually saw things my way and I got it without paying any extra.
Thanks buddy!
Here they all are in their new home

That is one hell of a find there. That looks like it set you back a penny or 2 million.
Send that over here so I can um, inspect the quality of those figures.
