There are quality toys out there from western artists, and not all the stuff coming from that side is crap---but a lot of it is less "quality-controlled" that what we see coming out of Japan. I still have a few "western" toys that I can't quite convince myself to part with, partially out of sentimentality, but also because they are still interesting to me a few years later. Collect whatever you want, but save the [expletive deleted], munnies, and similar stuff for your blogs and continue the time-honored tradition of NOT posting those things here. Don't have to be a genius to figure that one out...

(that is sad, ripping off a shitty toy...) those aren't kr, but i'm guessing they would recieve the negative treatment as well around here.

 Re: Does SB need a new "KR Korner" ?
At this point 80% of those polled are in favor of creating a KR forum, so we are going to go forward with this. Stay tuned.

 Re: Does SB need a new "KR Korner" ?
Hahahahahahahahaha!
This is hysterical.
Now I don't want to be a hypocrite. I'm guilty of posting up stuff I shouldn't cause it's fun to F' w/ Glenn and I like to paint on anything and everything. I'm all for a more "open door" policy and I wish this place was more tolerant of new folks. But really,… do you need a KR corner?
I can also navigate to their board any time I wish and get a fix (note not all Western Vinyl is KR product). That board's been very good to me. Oh wait, it's still a poorly maintained piece o' shizz that's been down for the last couple wks?!? Carry on, do what you will…

 Re: Does SB need a new "KR Korner" ?
I met someone here at the office for the first time yesterday, well, she was wearing a certain high fashion shirt. I asked her, "so you like vinyl toys eh?" Not good.

 Re: Does SB need a new "KR Korner" ?
this thread is fucked.
there should be some kind of block on changing poll results to suit your idea of humor.
if you want to sit in KR corner, by all means...go to KR.
dumbest thread of all time.

 Re: Does SB need a new "KR Korner" ?
I just spent several minutes trying to make a witty thread topic for the new section...and then realized it not only wasn't happening, but Glenn nailed it so perfectly that no other topic will ever be needed.
now, is there a filter than automatically sends certain posts to this new area?

The People have spoken, I guess. . .
Does this mean that I will have to change my occasional signature, below?
