Welcome! There are some really cool goings on around here

Thanks!!! I'm sure!!!

Thanks for the welcome.

37 year young, Happily married guy.I am a field inspector
for Fidelity.

I stumbled across this board around a year ago and decided to register. It amazes me at the talent that
is on this board. During my year of visiting here, I
have learned a few things.

I do not collect anything specific, But I am starting to
accumilate a nice helmet collection.
My wife likes/collects the harry potter stuff and has a good
bit of it.

I guess the biggest piece in my small collection would be
my life size Master Chief statue from Halo 2.

Thanks Again for the welcome, Fulcrum.

Hey everyone,

I'm 28, female collector in the UK. Have purchased items from Russrep (top bloke) and have been hovering waiting for sign up! So very glad to be aboard finally!

Main interests are Alien films, Predator, 5th Element, Terminator, Horror movies etc. Not really into one particular area as I collect prop replicas, props, 1/6 scale figures and anything else that catches my eye.

Have just kitted myself out with modelling material etc as I want to learn how to sculpt for myself. I have a wealth of ideas that I just want to get out and clay is the best medium for me...........hopefully!

Desperately looking for an electroplater ideally in the UK to do a couple of T2 and T3 replicas for me, any ideas? Relatively small items, T-1000 hook and T-800 power cell.

Look forward to speaking with you guys and discussing props!

Hey, great to be here. My name is Andrew, I'm 28, I live near Tacoma Washington, and I am an Electrician, Mechanic, and Aircraft Maintenance Inspector.

In my free time I enjoy listening to all sorts of music, researching Star Wars costumes, playing games (of all sorts), learning to sew, and occasionally cooking.

I don't have much to show.... a few home made projects, nothing of any good quality (IMHO). But I hope to learn a lot here and contribute what I can.

35 year, Male Married with a Son. I am a Landscape artist and designer.

I was a member early on but never used the site I hope to change that.

I mainly collect Props from the Indiana Jones run and Underworld but also have many from other movies

Thank you Kevjh

Welcome to the new folks

Thanks for the warm Welcome to the RPF!

I've been a sci-fi collector for a number of years now. I hope to continue the tradition with my two sons as well.

Hi all! Glad to be here. Some of you guys and gals will know me from TDH and some from UK based sites I am sure .

So hi and see you round the place.

Bobby.

wow - lots of names I recognise already

I use the same username across several boards - so a big hello to all the old and new faces.

I like collecting sci fi props - currently mostly centred on SW. But also ST, BSG, Firefly.

Mostly have participated on the receiving end of things, but have (very slowly) started to venture into some basic modelling. Have loads of questions abt he making molds and casting side of things.

Thanks to guys who have helped me with questions already on other boards - will prob post a similiar thread here - there being a wider audience on these boards.

will catch up with most of you in due course. its a real pleasure to be here and being able to finally use the 'search' key!!!

I'm generally into clone and rebel costuming, but would love to own a Boba Fett costume one day (dont tell anyone hey....its our secret...)

Hey Defstar - long time no see mate! Thanks for the welcome

Blimey they let anyone in here hows it going mate you still tearing around the country twirling them sabers ?

Hi another female collector here from the UK - East London to be exact

Have a few Sideshow bits including PF 1/4 Vader, Grievous and Hellboy - Hellboy II on way. Also a couple of bits from HCG the Korben Dallas blaster and a few bobbleheads.

Favourite stuff includes Star Trek, Star Wars, Fifth Element and Hellboy I & II but also into SG1, Bones and CSI in a big way.

Am absolutely flabergasted at the expertise and wonderful items being conceived and made by the folks on here and feel my worthy contriburions may be few and far between but hopefully will be in the market for some bits and so add some value that way.

Would love to do more model making as I have a SpatCave kit and a Fifth Element Multipass kit sitting at home waiting for me to get my backside in gear!

Hey ho m'dear!!

Where the hell are the rest of them??

Welcome to all of you new folks. Seems like a lot of UKers in here now.

Oh, leave your wallets at the door.

Hi guys,

I'm a collector for 20 years+ now, mostly kits, SciFi RealSpace and Aircraft.

It feels like it must be a thousand now but I never do find the time to build
my favorites and most importand also to finish them.

But now it is time to create somthing new.

There is definitly a fullsize Vader costume missing in my Collection.
