Two BRAND NEW and hopefully very useful threads in the SIGHTINGS FORUM

After reading and seeing all the thoughts on scalpers, hunting, and collecting in general, I believe these two threads will be very handy and successful for both new toy hunters, and veterans.

First of all, did you know we have a SIGHTINGS FORUM where there are regional threads for toy sightings and other talk? We Michiganders, as well as, the Disgrunteled Brits, Canadians, Australians, and others have found these very helpful in both finding toys, and creating a local comradeship.

Within this forum you will find a sticky for DCPI, SKU, and so forth of new TFs that can be used for locating TFs in your area.

And there is a thread stickied that has 'Hints for collectors by collectors...'

These are brand new ideas, but they will only work with your help. As in most things, the more minds that are working toward something, the better the results.

Your input is welcome!! And as always please enter your local sightings into our sightings database located here...

hey that's useful I'll make sure to check that out.

Wonder if there is a way to add the DCPI numbers and various such info to the actual Sightings tool. If its a senstive thing require that you must be logged in to see that portion. That way you have a one stop for sightings in areas and the stock numbers. Also estimated release would be nice but we never seem to really know that.

Or the release date changes so much, but still a good idea. I PM'd Ryan about adding DCPI, SKU to the sightings database information... we'll see.

What we need now is some help!

hey I live in BFE (bum **** egypt) but at least I can contribute to the number info since that's chain wide. My sightings aren't as important other than showing that TFs have finally reached the farthest distribution point so is likely at saturation point elsewhere.

For instance we are still waiting for cases of the newest wave with BB, may not even get them here since we are now seeing the next waves. Saw this with Jetfire in classics.

Don't think your contribution isn't important, you would be surprised how many non-registered people are reading what you posted there.

I wonder if I am the only Alaskan on registered on this site because I think the sightings section could really help

I'm just guessing here, but I think your sig is too large. Maybe I'm wrong...
