I think people just need to get over their petty grudges. Petty grudges are the cause of nearly all of the drama on this forum.

Enough !
who can lock this down ?

yeah right. its really lame seeing members only arguing
in special ways trying to degrade others.
hardly no constructive threads any longer.


COLLECT TOYS - BUT ACT LIKE MEN.

America baby! Where the men love sports, drink beer, drive huge trucks, undermine women, hate the minority and send their youth to show iraqi's freedom with the business end of an M-16...and are damn proud if it!

At the end we all a bunch of knuckleheads anyways. And arent most men nowadays just overgrown children having a kick ass midlife crisis?

Now in the words of my favorite hentai butthole - PUZZZUUUUU
feel the gentle breeze...on your face

was talking about european MEN though.

...its a pretty harmless and friendly type of men.

theres at least 6 million people who would disagree with that.

haven't you ever seen I Stand Alone?

This is all true. But please remember, New York is not part of America. It is it's own little Island Nation nestled oh so perfectly between the Hudson and East Rivers.

As for myself, don't like sports, don't drink (too much) beer, don't drive at all, love my multi-culti New York beauties, and would rather be spending my tax dollars on books and computers for kids instead of on guns and gas to run a war.
Not all Americans are jacks.

My eyes hurt from reading 7 pages of this. It's sandwich time.

Oh, I like this new direction...

Light it up!

kittens!!!

do i really have to act like a man?


had to borrow a Charity pic. i'm all out of fresh ones!

I love the cute pics but I still feel the need to make a comment (or three).

This board has not gone to shit. Loads of news about upcoming toys is still released on this board 1st. A lot of the info you get on Skullbrian cannot be found anywhere else (in English). When you consider the whole there are very few drama threads but they are always the longest. I guess we all love the drama (Cesar excluded).

I think the drama is necessary, it is an unavoidable consequence caused by the diversity of backgrounds we all come from. My favorite thing about the toy scene (both east and west) is that all the subcultures, that seemed so fractured and separate in my youth, have found a common ground. We have all traveled different paths to get here but here we all are enjoying the same things.

Don't fret about SkullBrain, it is still the best source of information for Japanese toys on the web. As far as I am concerned the added drama just makes it a better read.

Just for the record, I catch as much shit as anyone on this board from both old and new members. Sometimes I step up and fight back other days I just let it go. Regardless of what is said about me I never ask Isaac to defend me or protect my honor. I once considered Geo a friend and to some degree a mentor. Recently he attacked me in a thread so now I just consider him a punch line. If the two of us can reconcile (and I think we can) I will change my attitude towards him again. Message Boards are dynamic they are always in flux; the worst thing any of us can do is make definitive statements about toys or people. Heck, I bought a chronic toy in Japan, you never know how the tides will change.

I guess what I am trying to say is be thankful for this board and don’t worry so much what other people think of you: opinions change over time. Innocence is silence.

"Don't fret about SkullBrain, it is still the best source of information for Japanese toys on the web."

For newer Japanese vinyl, to be sure....

If you know what to ask, old school vinyl is well covered too. I have never seen a question go unanswered on here - wether it's about knew or old. The knowledge here is pretty impressive.

"If you know what to ask, old school vinyl is well covered too"

I agree, I think this board complements places like Clubtokyo and ToyboxDX very nicely.

which chronic? a pinstriped one?

nope the one with the insert.
