Crying that hard about missing out on a toy has to be one of the most pathetic things ever.

I post on KR to, I really hate all the fucking whiners though.

If you want one little example of why people have been bashing the [expletive deleted] message board just go to thelink below. Just do yourself one very big favor...make sure you take 2 extra strength tylenol before you begin. And even then be prepared for your eyes to start crossing and blood to seep from your nose!!!

I honestly can't wait for the "cool" factor to drop out of this toy craze. That will leave the true fans and artists to enjoy this for the right reasons and then all the obnoxious fad jumpers will move on to the next cool thing to be seen involved in!!!!!

My God. That was some awesome reading. I am going to the KR Board more often!

The angst and drama are stewed to fuckin perfection over there!!!

See when someone here shows their collection off it's more of a sharing in the thrill of the hunt kind of a thing.

Over on KR it too often seems like it's who's rolling the biggest bank. Don't get me wrong I'm envious of everyone here but I've never gotten the vibe that people here posted things just to stab the rest of us in the eye.

you can call me Mayor Puffs Tuffington. or snake.

I'm 'el lucha loco parka' :)

Agree with the collection post too. VGA's must have cost an arm and a leg, or at least a kidney. But he never comes across as bragging. Ditto with Knewnan and everyone else.

Funny - looking over the LONG thread I recognized a lot of names! I guess AD has had with us over here. And JHR? I am surprised at you! What a bunch of fucking whiners! (not you JHR - BTW) Shit - If you don't get a specific toy - Life will go on........IT"S A FUCKING TOY!!!!! There will be others coming down the line....... Man I am about ready to hang it up and never come back, sit in a corner in a featle postion and rock............. :roll:

Wow. Fun thread.

One thing I don't understand and I believe there were at least a few of you on this notion....So if one has a "big one" (toy collection) and they have spent a ton on it...AND they post pictures of it - Does that mean they're assholes?

Could it be simpler just to let people do what they wanna do unless they're outright bashing somebody? Or is prejudgement (sometimes yours) and others motives (posting photos of large collections) just life?

Incidentally I CANNOT WAIT for the toy craze to be over too. It seems that there's probably nobody on this site that would categorize themselves as either "newbies" or people that will be "out" in two years. Is that the case? If it was would it strike you as odd or just plain perfection?
