    kirby christmas continues

    Sure! Among my vast network of friends, I am the "weird" one and I revel in my weirdness.  I am proud of all the individuality that makes me, me.  My passion for Kirby is just another iteration of that individuality that I would love to share with my friends.  Plus, I can guarantee my friends...

    My bestie's DS 80 video

    Check out what my bestie created after we resurfaced the armature on the DS 80 I gave him. I'm proud to have created another Kirby fan! That's my foot powering it up in the after video. Also, we call a "Kirbyrection" when the permanent bag gets inflated off the floor when unhooked. A good...

    Kirby Generation 3 startup issue

    My bestie's Generation 3 is not starting up properly.  He has to rapidly press the Power button for the engine to even turn over.  Sometimes, it flickers on and off immediately.  We have tested the safety switch by removing the Emptor and engaging the safety with a screw driver.  When...

    oh the pain ! DUMPSTER KIRBY

    Not going to lie... My stomach is still turned from the idea of such a beauty being wasted in a dumpster!  The horror, the humanity!  May peace be upon that Kirby's neglected little soul.

    Did I do good/bad? Haha!

    Cool idea So, if your headlight hood does not stay up and vibrates when being used, you'll know for sure that it's the right piece to get!

    Kirby Heritage II bag assembly question

    Had the same problem! There are two metal "rods" holding it in place.  Just bend them down and out, and the bag will slip right off.  It takes a bit of muscle to get 'em started, and it feels like you're going to break them off, but that's how it's done.  You can feel them when you feel...

    New Photos of My Growing Collection!

    Kirby 508 Woah!  That's one of the next ones on my wish list, in honor of my stepdad's birth year.  The 515 is actually in honor of my Mom's birth year (and also, Disneyland's opening year).  You are so fortunate, beautiful collection but of course, Kirbys have a special place in my heart.

    Kirby section! WOW!  What beautiful machines!  It looks like you have a 505 or earlier in that collection!  What models do you have there?  They look stunning, you are so fortunate.  The earliest model I have is a 515 and that was a lucky find.
