-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, January 27 2012
Finally we have a TV Show that caters to the Toy Collecting Community. Follow Jordan Hembrough from Hollywood Heroes as he hosts the Toy Version of American Pickers on the Travel Channel. It re-airs this coming Sunday, January 29th at 6PM Eastern and could really be a boon to our hobby if this takes off! I know I will be watching and I hope you will too.

Wookie Balls shows us the latest with his Blanx Custom...
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, January 27 2012
Wookie Balls has been experimenting with a new AF Line called Blanx Action Figures. Initially we thought the line might be doomed due to some size issues, but WB has sure proven they can be customized effectively perhaps giving customizer a good choice to use for a SW Base Figure. Check out his progress on his Star Wars Centurion Cross-Over.

Tough is definitely one word I would use to describe this newest custom figure that Stitch Fett has unveiled. This one is a Resident evil cross with the ARC Trooper who is named ARC RE-01 aka "Wesker". It looks daggone awesome to me.

What is your favorite TOR Character or Image?
-- Posted by Tamer on Wednesday, January 25 2012
Forum Members Wookie Balls and Mungo Baobab thought it might be nice for us to have some TOR Reference Material for those who might not be as familiar as others when contemplating their custom entries for The Combined Sites TOR Custom Competition that we have going with Yakface and Echobase News. I think its a great idea and please cite your source(s) if you post an image. I have already posted a few of my favs.
