I'm still in touch with Siegfried, he just had some issues with the site's policy on third party stuff and a few other behind the scenes things before he quit from the staff. He's cut back his collecting as well so keeping a bit of distance from the community can help with not getting sucked back in.

Good to know he's ok! I might have to do the same soon, actually.

And thanks for the heads up on the magazine, might give it a shot if I happen past a newsagents.

I'm a faker in the sense that I'm only living in the UK, and so far temporarily.
I do have a collection, although I've stopped adding new pieces now. Or at least, I will do once I find FoC Starscream and Grimlock. My last figure will be Maketoys Mobine Series Chaos/Paladin. Because I love PCCs, and that figure is just gorgeous.

Might sell some older stuff, actually, but only after the summer. And I'll still be reading the comics as they come out! I love the writing, and I think that, like most IDW titles, they are severely underrated in the comics world.

I was going to write an article about that, actually. Might get back to it once this chapter is over.

WHOAH long post. Sorry!

You don't have to live in a place or be from there to report a sighting in that place. Nobody's a faker, we're all one big, happy yet disgruntled family.

I know! It's just that I was greeted as the Resident Italian, when Dead Metal was the Resident German posting in this thread. I quite like the difference-ness.

Me too, diversity rocks. Variety is the spice of life and all that. I'm a Welsh/Irish Scot after all!

Edit: Okay, I buckled and opened another one. Springer's code is 42.

I found out over Christmas, talking to my Italian grandmother, that I'm actually 3% Turkish, 3% Dutch, and 44% Italian. Then on my mum's side it's 25% English, 12.5% Irish and 12.5% French!

Oh and also, Transformers. In shops. UK.

Keep on topic. You have been warned!

First they moved us from the toys forum. Then they took away our name and made us have the word 'sightings' in the thread title. But we are still the ODB, piratical scourge of the seven(ish) forums and we shall not go quietly into the night.

This was all before most of you youngbloods' times.
