I decided it's high time I donated something, but I don't need another Sidearm figure. So I just donated.

Great idea by FP. Kudos.

And if you don't receive an email back from FP check your spam box, that's where mine went.

This is freaking awesome! Even if my receipt doesn't satisfy Fansproject's requirements, I'm glad I did this. There has been a real lack of leadership in the US on pleading for donations. I, like others have already stated, am ashamed that it took the possibility of getting a "free" toy to get me to donate. Sometimes, however, that's all it takes. And this was a great way for Fansproject to help as well. My hat's off to them and I will continue to support them however I can. For money reasons I had considered forgoing the Causality line. Now I will purchase anything and everything Fansproject produces. They are one class act worthy of my business!

Blesser should look fetching as a partner to TFCC Sideburn.

Fans Project just posted on their Facebook page that they just reached 400 donations!!

So please don't worry about not getting the figure yet. Window is still open to help this cause and get a nice piece for your donation.

This is just so awesome! I hope we can get as many fans to donate as possible. Since they are doing this, then I will also donate another $15 my next pay just to do the right thing. Their generosity is infectious.

FansProject, you have continually impressed me with all announcements you make. You have my support in all you do.

Bravo Fansproject.

I was about to donate anyway so this was a total win/win!

I donated about two hours ago and didn't post anything because I felt that it would be bragging (not that I think any of you are, I just don't talk about when I give to charity) so I actually have something toy related to bring up: while it may not look like Fracas on purpose, Blesser will still make a great Targetmaster partner for Scourge. That's what I'm doing with mine!

Sent them my receipt. Been meaning to donate(since I have friends that live there), but had to wait until the bills were paid.

I'm giving mine to Side Burn when he comes in. Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll do Side Burn Protector.

I donated through the American Red Cross site, and the top of the receipt says "The American Red Cross is acting swiftly to put your donation to work in communities affected by the earthquake in Japan and tsunami throughout the Pacific." I'm assuming that will be good enough.

Does anyone know if this figure can be held by other figures? I mean, does his peg fit into standard fist holes? I don't have Rodimus, so I'm hoping other Classics figures can hold him.

He's got both a 5mm and a 4mm peg(at least I think 4mm is the size of Roddy's hole). He should fit in some one's hands with the 5mm peg.

I think it is awesome that Fansproject is doing something like this. I made my donation. The Tsunami relief bit is very small on the image though, so I am not holding my breath about getting the figure.

I think Blesser would make a nice Recoil for Kup.

Anybody know how to take a screen shot? I'm using the most recent version of Firefox.

Just hit Print Scrn, and paste into any photo editing software.

Or, hold Alt while pressing Print Scrn to capture just the active window.

Um, it's not working. Is there something I have to do first to get it to print the screen, like turn the print screen option on?

If you're on a notebook, you might have to hold the Fn (Function) key, depending on your keyboards layout.

Hitting the Print Scrn key basically replaces the copy command, then just hit Ctrl + V in MS Paint. Once in Paint, just crop it and save/print it.

If you're using Firefox, download the FireShot add-on.

Windows 7 and most Vistas come with the Snipping tool, which is awesome for quick screenshots.

News Credits: 4 · by **Neurie** » Fri Mar 18, 2011 3:41 pm

Has given $25(£16)

If I dont get the figure then I don get it as there will be lots of people scrambling for them I think( this is world wide) but it should make you feel better that you made a donation not that you got a exclusive figure.

News Credits: 2 · by **GreenLantern of Cybertron** » Fri Mar 18, 2011 4:44 pm

Its probably too late to get a figure, but I donated $20.00 anyway.

Donated. Really shoulda done this sooner. Good to FP for getting some of us off our lazy duffs to send something. Hopefully I'm not too late for Blesser. We'll see.
