    Spooktacular 2013??

    Has it been confirmed that Sideshow will do Spook this year or is all the talk just an assumption?

    Deepest Sympathies to LCummins

    Have just found out that Lonnie (LCummins) has unexpectedly lost a sister this weekend. (For those of you relatively new: Lonnie is one of our senior members; he doesn't post much but he is well-known and liked among us old-timers on this forum). My thoughts and sympathies to you, your mom...

    Congrats to Downton Abby!!!

    I know most of you don't know much about this TV series, but I'm so very excited that the cast of this wonderful show got a SAG for best ensemble -- beating out the "obvious", "sure" bets of Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, etc. :clap :rock2

    It's almost too much!!

    The Hobbit blitz is on and it's almost too much for me. I'm about to bust a gut in anticipation. I had to leave the live streaming of the Wellington premier about 1/4 of the way in becuz I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep otherwise. It was bad enough with all the hobbity goodness being thrown...

    Thank You Dave!!!

    ....for changing the section from just LOTR to reflect the broader scope. (I'm normally not too OCD, but (as you know) it's been bugging me.) :yess:

    Columbus Day

    Just wondering why Columbus Day is still officially (at least federally) a holiday here in US. There is now ample evidence that there were loads of others who "discovered" North America before him.....Irish, Chinese, Scandanavians, etc. Does anyone know? (yes, I'm bored):monkey1

    LEGO LOTR sets

    When (if ever) will you be offering the LOTR LEGO sets? I know I can get them from TRU and Target and other places, but would prefer to send my $$ your way first. Thanks

    2011 Oscars

    Not withstanding the fact that these awards are politics and whatever you may see as the evils of Hollywood self-promotion, the Oscars are still the big daddy of all self-promoting awards. And nearly everyone has an opinion. IMO, most of the nominees were expected. But what is your opinion on...

    Castle - Halloween Episode

    Anyone watch the Castle episode tonight? Starts off with him dressed as Mal. His daughter asks what that costume represents. He says " a space cowboy." Daughter tells him there are no cows in space. Plus something about the costume being 5 years old and that Dad just needs to move on. Had...

    Thanks Sideshow and Darklord Dave!!!

    There's been mention of the great times had at the Freaks'/SS party. But thought this deserved a separate thread. Thanks again Sideshow and Dave for one of the best-ever gatherings we've had. The SS staff were more than accommodating in joining us in the various little knots of discussion and...

    Sideshow notification of pending CC expiration?

    Has anyone ever gotten these? I just got one and it just didn't feel right. Gave me a specific order number and a link to update my info. (an order # I have no record of BTW) Sent in query to CS. Am I being paranoid?:confused:

    RIP James Whitmore

    Many of the younger members may not kow who he is or if they do, only as Brooks in Shawshank Redemption or as the Miracle Gro man on TV commercials, but a huge hole was left by this fine actor's passing. If you haven't seen his depth and versatility, look him up on Battleground or Kiss Me Kate...

    Black ice and why are people so stooopid?

    Had a bit of snow today, nothing accumulative. But the wind chill (sometimes gusting to 40 mph) has made whatever moisture we've had into ice. And there are morons with their fancy-schmancy 4-wheeled drive vehicles slipping and sliding and ditching all over the place because they're driving...

    Shout out to Darth Loki and Sideshow and Dave

    I would like to publicly thank Darth Loki for his generosity and kindness. Because of him, my prize stands proudly in my display case as of this morning. My hope is that the prize he received gives him almost as much happiness as I'm feeling. NOTE: please do not interpret this as a slam on...

    My FedEx Delivery guy collects Sideshow

    Normally, when I accept delivery for packages, not much convo going on, but as I was signing for my Fellbeast vs. Gwaihir dio, he saw my Saruman vs. Gandy dio and said "impressive. I also collect Sideshow." Seems he's keen on the Sideshow GI Joe stuff. I can imagine his curiosity all this...

    Shall We Try Out the Chatroom?

    Anybody want to try out the chatroom tonight (US time) in anticipation of the newsletter? Dave kindly reinstated the link and it would be a shame to not at least give it a go?
