Where's the glue???!!!

[Harry P.]

This is an item we're all familiar with, and many of us have used since childhood.

What's different about this particular tube of glue?

Before I took this shot last night, this was a plump, pristine, brand-new tube of glue. This is how far I had to squeeze it in order for the first drops of glue to come out.

Apparently I was sold a tube of glue that was 90% air...

You got a short-filled tube of glue. When I was working in a hobby shop, we used to get cases of glue. I would always go through all the cases and quite a few times we would get empty glue tubes. Maybe one out of every hundred. It often happens when the machine on the production line is running low on glue and they haven't refilled it yet. We would send the short-filled or sometimes even empty tubes of glue back to the manufacturer. You're not the only one this has happened to.

.... any by removing the cap and squeezing the tube you have RUINED its aftermarket collector value! You FOOL!!

That looks like a good tube to use on a snapkit.

Many moons ago, another magazine did an "April Fools" article on air boxes. Finally, something to put together what wasn't in the boxes!
