Other Collectibles / GG Blog is back! Open plea to all of us.....
« on: April 18, 2008, 10:28 PM »
Ok, folks.......it seems GG has brought the blog posting ability back. I'm excited and scared remembering how it went last time.

I think that the blog would be a very good thing for us to "communicate" with GG and them with us. I know in the past things have not gone the way many of us would have liked and I am among those that have been a bit discouraged by the way things have been looking when it comes to GG but this is a good thing. This brings me hope. More than most things they have done in the past, this gives me hope that they might be trying to turn a new leaf.

I am not counting my eggs yet but it is a step in the right direction.

Now, the main reason I wanted to post this was to make an open plea to all Premier Guild Members out there who plan on taking part of this feature. We need to do our part and show GG that it was a good idea to re-open the blogs for us to post in. By this I mean that we need to conduct ourselves in a respectful manner towards others, their posts, their ideas, their points of view and GG and their staff.  I am not saying that you shouldn't say anything bad if there is some thing you don't like. But I am saying that we need to be responsible and do it in an appropriate manner. We need to be respectful.

If we start acting like kids, insulting each other and GG or their employees (just like things were just before they took things down the 1st time) we are telling GG that this is a bad idea and nothing good will come of it. That they might as well not even bother cause we don't want to take advantage of it.

On the other hand, if we all use this accordingly....little by little, GG might use it more and more.

I hope this made sense and it wasn't too bad a rant or read. It's just something that I felt very strongly about when the blog was first up and it made me mad to see it go cause it was something that had such potential and was ruined by a few inmature jerks. They ruined it for the rest of us.  i want to try to help so we don't see that happen again.

Thanks
Rod

Modern Trading / 501st Droid Hunt Badges
« on: September 12, 2005, 12:26 AM »
Hey all,

I collect miscelaneous Star Wars badges and am looking for the two latest "Droid Hunt" badges given out by the 501st at Comic Con and Dragon Con.

Here is a pic of the one from Comic-Con:
 [image]http://i19.ebayimg.com/04/i/04/81/dc/3a_1_b.JPG[/image]

I don't care if it is laminated or not.....would actualy prefer non-laminated since mine are not laminated.  But would take it either way.

I have the ones from Celebration 3 and last years Dragon Con and both are not laminated.

Thanks
Rod

I got an extra of the Celebration 3 Code 3 poster.

I am looking mostly for the ARC Trooper maquette but might also trade this for an Assj Ventress maquette (since I can trade it for an ARC Trooper...maybe)

Ok, let's play a game!

Let's see who can guess the San Diego Comic-Con/Wizard World-Shicago Gentle Giant Exclusive!

I am doing this same contest on different forums on other popular Star Wars collecting sites.

Whoever figures out exactly what Gentle Giant will give us this summer at the Summer Conventions (SDCC and Wizard-Chicago) will get an assortment of Gentle Giant Bust-Ups from me for free! The prize will include:
Luke Bust-Up
Han Solo Bust-Up
Stormtrooper Bust-Up
the Bust-Up card that was given away at Celebration 3 (it is the card on the top left shown  HERE ). 

I will also throw in an assortment of freebies I have gotten in the last month...like a set of Walmart SW Gift Cards, ROTS red wristband from C3 and a few other suprises  ;)

The winner will be chosen from all the forums I will be posting this at.

Contest ends as soon as Gentle Giants announces their Summer Exclusive.

Rules:
1. One guess per member
2. If more than one person guesses correctly, I will randomly pick a winner among those that guessed correctly.
3. If nobody gets the exact guess whichever comes closest in my opinion gets the lot.
4. If you are picking a character like an E3 Clone Trooper (which has the potential of coming in many different color schemes) you must state which color scheme you are picking, maybe even show a pic.

This is not sponsored by JediDefender or Gentle Giants......just something I thought I would do for fun.
