    Did an Overview video on the WGP E- Orracle

    Just wrapped this up this afternoon. Feedback is certainly welcome, but it’s only my 2nd video ever, so don’t chew me up too bad!

    Mostly my motivation for these videos is with these markers getting to be 20+ years old what was once fairly common knowledge isn’t really known anymore.

    Hopefully this helps to keep some of that history alive.

      It's crazy to think that if these were foreign cars we'd be able to start importing the ones we wanted now. Well at least the ones 2000 and older.

        Nicely done! Shot the follow. I love that people are putting stuff up about their older markers, I dig that you give a bit of backstory on them and the different models. I've slowly been doing similar with my personal automags. I'll tell you that as time goes on and the more videos you make, the better and faster you'll get at making them, the ones I do have no where as much editing as you have in yours but every video I do I learn a bit more about the video editing I'm doing. Keep it up!

          Immediate watch for me nicely done and even better than the last one. I really enjoy this style of video. One thing I noticed is at the end you say to put which gun you'd like to see next in the comments but the comments were turned off. Was that intentional? I'll suggest either the Karnivor or the STO line in general. And last question, are you willing to do non WGP videos?

            Dang! I didn’t realize the comments were disabled. They’re back on now, hopefully I didn’t miss out on too much feedback from the first viewers.

            The Karnivor, 2005 Black Magic, the Jeff Orr Limited edition, and VF-Tactical are all on my list for future videos.

            So far I’ve done WGP autocockers just because that’s what I know best and I’ve got plenty of examples on hand for pictures and filming.

            I’ve owned and used a variety of other high end brands of early 2000s Markers, so I’m open to doing non-WGP videos too. The biggest hurdle there is I just don’t have much depth in my current marker line up for early 2000s non-WGP markers now. Just a Freak Factory Impulse and a DYE Matrix LCD, but it wouldn’t be too hard to pick something up as long as it wasn’t super rare and hard to find.

              I am sure there are people that would be willing to loan markers for you to use in write-ups, especially if they get video time. If you put out a "casting call" for a specific marker, i know you would have offers to loan you one. I know i would if i had any "factory" markers.

                I just saw Your second video last night, and I thought both were excellent! The video itself was high quality, and it also was very clear that You put a lot of time and research into it. I also LOVED that You had multiple examples to show/shoot!

                The black-blue Mini E-Orracle has always been my favorite marker, though I got distracted with an amazing deal on a Karnivor back in 2006 and never looked back.... until recently! A little bit of my own nostalgia over the last few months and more recently a firm push from watching Your first video.... I grabbed the parts to get started on my building my dream Orracle, It'll be a blacked out resto-mod.

                I'd also love to build a mech with one the new WGP full size body kits, and support them. Maybe with the VSA plugged and a mini-orracle front block... for a stretched-mini look🤔. I really like the look of that original alu-delrin bolt too

                Thanks for sharing, you definitely inspired me to take the plunge on a build I thought of for decades, even when I didn't play!!

                  I’m glad you enjoyed it!

                  The blue Revvy on your Orracle is perfection!
