  1. Saludos que los atrapen a estos malechores. Pronto Muy triste par a los que somos collecionistas se nos lastiman cada vez que suceden estos robots. Que son piezas que no se encuentran a la vuelta de la esquina. Suerte de que los encuentren.

  2. Por eso es importante tener las piezas bien clasificadas. Para poder conocer lo q uno tiene y poder saber cuando algo se nos pierda o nos roben. Yo tengo algunas anotadas tengo q sacar un tiempo para registrarlas todas.
