Do you still own your favourite figure from when you were a kid?
No. I gave them away about 15 years ago to a friend for his kids...since then, I've gotten back into them...every now and then I smash my face against the desk when I think about them...
Do/what was your first Vam/mam or 1/6 vehicle?
I don't remember exactly, it was a long time ago...It was either the yellow AT helicopter or the Troubleshooter ATV
Are you still in contact with childhood Vam/mam or 1/6 buddies?
No
Best vehicle in your motorpool now?
Right now, I think it would be this dune buggy...I believe it's from 21st Century...
Best figure in your collection (vam/mam or 1/6)?
I don't really have a "best" figure. It really depends on where my mind is at and what kind of photo story I want to do...whoever I'm using for my story is the "best" figure at that moment
Best kitbash in your collection?
I'd have to say it's my Ghost Rider...first bash I ever did
Did you get your desired item?
No, turns out she was married...oh,oh you meant 1/6 item, didn't you...As a kid, whatever I got for christmas worked for me...I always loved it...Nowadays, I'm the same way, whatever I can get is good for me...at this point, I don't really have a "desired" item...I just buy what catches me eye...lol
Do you still owned it?
No, she's still married...
Biggest regret item you have added to your collection?
None, actually...
Has your collection grown since your last interview?
Ask me that on my second interview...lol
How many figures make up your HQ ?
You're gonna make me count them? lol! I'd have to say I've got maybe 30 or so different characters, not all Joes tho...
What does your wife/girlfriend/partner think of your collection/hobby?
Well, I'm single these days but when I was with the ex, she accepted it...mostly because when I was working on my figures I wasn't trying to get some "lovin'" from her, shall we say?
Why do you think we have the connection to vam/mam or 1/6 figures?
First, it's a connection to our childhood. Second, even us adults have an imagination and I think this is a way to use our imagination...at least for me, doing a photoshoot/storyline is a great way to use my limited imagination...besides, this hobby is a great way to get away from "life" for a bit..
.
What do you enjoy about our hobby?
I thought I just answered that lol! ...It's the freedom to do what I want, the freedom to make my characters into anything I want...
Whats your Favourite kitbash by someone another member?
I don't have any favorite...Anyone that can bash a figure has my respect and I learn something from all the ones I see...so be careful what you show me...lol
Has your collecting interests changed since you first started collecting?
Well, it sort of revolves...I'm on a few different forums, each with their own focus, so my own collecting changes depending on which forum I'm into the most at any given time...if that makes sense...lol...but, overall, anything I buy/collect has a purpose in my main storyline which is "The Thriax"
Do you have a/What is your favourite section of AMMO?
While I enjoy all of AMMO, my favorite sections are definitely the comics/stories sections...Action Man, GI Joe, whoever...doesn't matter to me
Why do you like AMMO?
I like AMMO because even though I'm new here, I feel like I'm welcome to share my stuff. The people here seem really cool and friendly and willing to help...besides, Blondeactionman said he'd send me a nude Jenna pic if I joined...
