First- I want to thank each of you for your passion for collecting. We represent the life blood in a niche market like this. I love the discussion about the Toyish nature of the upcoming A-10 in target. It prooves the point that while these are "toy companies" It is is Detail, Accuracy, and moving parts that are king! These are collectables for discriminating fans.
Second- All has been quiet on the western front for now with 21st. The real reason for this is because they are working super super hard to push out the promised product line up! The entire staff is pulling 10 - 14 hour days. Make no mistake about it 21st is woking very hard for us. Now I know there is disappointment in the less than accurate release dates and delays. I too share in the dissapointment from a fan perspective. But I promise you though progress is being made. There are some NEAT projects in the works. Some you are already aware of, most are yet to be revealed. There are plenty of neat little twists for many projects that will really make you smile... Its the extra mile stuff I am taking about here. For maketing and timing reasons I cannot go into detail (and that kills me, but 21st has to protect their investments untill the time is right). But everyone hang in there. It is going to be a ton of fun!
Third- Ahhh, the ever request for Fan Club Exclusives! I want to do them sooooo badly. The suggestions made are wonderful. I am hoping that we will see that day soon. For now there are bigger fish that needs to be fried, but again patience I think will weigh out in the end. It's more a question of when not if...
Fourth- This board rocks! It is so great to have a community of fans and friends here to talk war toys. This kind of "water-cooler" conversation it what make this fun.
And a personally want to say thanks for letting me play here as well. I truly am a fan, long before I was the AREA-21 president it was GPXD that always had the good info and pointed me to the right places for new products.
