Since that time we made a introduction card with our names and joedios web adress, so people can be more interested and learn a little about our hobby. People can't understand what they don't know.

That's a cool idea Luis! Handing out Joedios cards gives people the opportunity to check out the results before they make any judgements.

Uh... Snake-Eyes!" Of course, this was 1997, and the only Snake-Eyes toys available were in multi-packs, so I saw right through the lie. Plus I never gave away my phone # to any TRU employee. They were pretty lousy prank callers. I find that people react better to a Transformers collection than they do to a GIJoe collection. __________________ RIP Minouche, 1994-2009.
