  1. This is really, really sad. I’m used to coming here EVERY day for new figure content of some kind; but for there to be barely anything posted anymore makes me sad. This is one of my favorite places to escape to and remember why action figures are so damn cool.

  2. How can I get hold of a forum moderator? Got banned in the forums just minutes ago.

  3. hello, I recently signed up for the message board but by posts have not been getting moderator approval nor have I been able to contact a moderator about this issue. hoping this will get somebody’s attention

  4. Can someone tell me why I can’t post @ different times and receive the INVALID SECURITY ID prompt? What does that even mean. It’s frustrating!
