I have no idea what the Ferris this thread is all about. People shouldn’t have isms. Not least culturalisms.

I was merely suggesting that by hanging around here all day you’d only be getting under people’s feet.

Middle Earth / Re: LOTR Trilogy Figures

I thought Faramir was suppose to have moving arms when you pushed the button?

His right arm moves a bit, but not by much. I would say you get  about 15% of a sword slash when you push the button  :)

I’m sorry…obviously a sensitive subject  ;D

I was only defining you by your sweater-wearing habits because you keep defining me by my rodent-ownership  :P

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Guns

I have a water pistol, which I use to chase away the neighbourhood’s cats.

Guns are (fortunately) illegal in my country. I believe drug dealers and even some of the more competent police officers (only one or two of them qualify, obviously) can apply for special licences.

Nah.  I seriously doubt it...

If they did, Hasbro would probably do something totally stupid and only release them in Canada, or somethin'...   ::)

They were released in Canada were they? I thought you Americans had them all  >:( The only one I've seen was £15, about $25.

Saga '02-'04 / Re: Figures You Have Passed On, Or Will Pass On

I had OCD* too, but I'm better now  ;)

I buy one of everything new to me carded, so the reissues can Ewok off as far as I’m concerned. My need for loose toys has been taken up by LOTR figures…much easier for my aging eyes to see for a start! I basically love all the OT stuff, so there’s no way I could give those up. I will think again when Ep3 comes around: if I’m going to start passing up figures big-time, it will be then. Not sure I want to still be in the collecting game when I get to 30.

* I assume that’s something like Obsessive Completist Disorder?

More stupid **** inspired by OutKast's 'Hey Ya!!'
I'm sure Flash animations are exactly what Andre 3000 had in mind when he wrote this song.

http://mysite.freeserve.com/obi_robz/hey_ya___VG_style.swf

I had to take that down because it was hammering my bandwidth. It was posted at RS, so perhaps you might be able to get the original link from the topic-starter.

Watch out for pop-ups though (one was even a GAIN spyware installer)...that's the reason why I decided to host the swf animation in the first place.  

Rob :)

Many thanks, Mr over-sized sweater  :P

I think that if I use the rat pictures I would probably just drop the text from the signature…no one reads it anyway :)

Power of the Jedi / Re: Force Files?
« on: April 7, 2004, 05:34 PM »
It’s very interesting that the Tri-Logos had US FFs: the European releases have multi-language Force Files as well as cards. I have taken photos of my Euro POTJ Old Ben and you can see that the front and back covers of the Force File are quad-logo. I’ve never seen an opened one, but I would assume that for legal reasons (these were marketed all over Europe) they would be multilingual throughout. Like I said, only about 12 of these were released on European cards…I’ll try and get a list for you.

Anyways, here are the pics of my only European POTJ Force File:

I didn't know there were any variations  :(...unless you include text language. Did the Canadian Tri-Logos also have different Force Files I wonder?

I know for a fact that there are about 12 Euro quad-logo Force Files: I only have old Ben on these cards, but there are quite a few others.

As for basic US Force Files, I don't see anything at first glance missing from your list  :)

How big would you say is too big  :P ?

I may want to annoy people for a while with rat pictures in my sig. I have posted it below so that you can tell me if it's OK. It is 36k.
