Introducing Myself

Post by cjg476 » Tue Sep 13, 2011 8:34 pm

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to introduce myself. I am a toy collector from Kokomo Indiana. I have been a fan and collector of many 21st century 1:18 scale 1:32 scale and BBI toys as well as many other things. I decided to join this group because I never knew there was a group out there just like me until I stumbled on it tonight. Anyways I hope to get to know some people, learn alot of info and hopefully retain a lot that I find out by being here. Anyways I'm glad I joined and am looking forward to being a member...
Corey

Hi Welcome!! We're almost neighbors. I live just across the border to the west in Illinois. Been to the AF museum there at Grissom. Very nice place.
