Whoa, I missed this topic while I was occupied over the past month! Sorry to see you go, semi-neighbor! Hope to still see you around the boards occasionally...

Wow!

Oh Wow!,
I didn't see this announcement over on yojoe.. does everyone on there know? I too am sorry to see you quit the hobby.. although I'm sure if its what you want to do then the decision would have been made after some considerable thought.

I enjoyed reading that take on the Sure Fire/ Tomax & Xamot thing you sent to me by email.. and I too had noticed the last of posting by you on yojpe.

Good luck for the future Don I hope things work out really well for you.

People drift to other interests, and don't necessarily go back to Joe. Losing collectors only hurts the chances of any 3 3/4" comeback, though I can't "blame" anyone for leaving. (I'm really tired of fans blaming fans for everything.)

I only just got into it at the start of the hiatus. almost no joes in stores hurts my cause but i wont give in! :cool:

I'm late with this one but have noticed you have been MIA for a while.

So you're done huh? I know I still might run into you at Target or something. :)

Be good.

Actually, I think Don lurks. It takes a really gnarly picture for him to comment. For the most part, he is out of the GI Joe collecting business but I'm sure he's cool w/ pictures on occasion. I know that I appreciate him still stopping by.
