That's a great idea! I have on my own small part been helping out just this way. I've sent Barricades, Dreadwings, Arcees, BB74, and in 2 wks BB08 to more people than I care to remember. Is it a lot of effort? Yup. It is satisfying? Definitely. When I think about how many of those people could have made those mofoin' scalpers very happy campers indeed, it adds to my pleasure.

the problem with this or the Sightings thread, is that by the time we read it and go back to the store to get it, it's probably gone. Let's say we have
x number of people on this forum who live in the vicinity of the sighting. I'm sure it's a mad scramble of
x people for that one sighting and in the end you have
x-1 people very disappointed in frustrated.
By actually listing what is needed, I could have a list in mind and as soon as I saw it, buy it immediately. After all that's the value of something like this, to pick up something immediately that you see that might be gone in 5 minutes if you don't.
The only thing I see is that we need to figure out communication method. We have ten people spotting that one guy needs a Dreadwing and we potentially have 9 Dreadwings that nobody else wants.
