Save Outrider (the Challenge!!!)
Listen up gang. We've all read Outrider's latest post on his health condition. Several us gathered on MSN (including the boss of the site) and we propose a special challenged dedicated to the one and only OUTRIDER! The mission : SAVE OUTRIDER!!! Parameters : -Shoot a dio. Shoot a 1-shot. Write a story. Whatever you can do! -Post your stuff ASAP. -IF you shoot a dio, you MIGHT want to post it in the forums section. Please host your own shots (ala Photobucket.com, Flickr, etc... That's so the fotos section doesn't get flooded.) -While we don't actually know WHO Outrider's fave figure is to represent him, we feel that Crosshair is the best representation (tho he has no mustache). We also surmise that DTC Major Bludd is a fave but we feel Outrider should be a good guy. RAISE THE MAN'S MORALE! RAISE THE FLAG OF THE OUTRIDER! |
AWESOME POST Sonnelion!
I will be entering the dio world again after a 5 year break to make my own quick dio because I love Outrider, and I'll do whatever I can think of to help him pull through! GO OUTRIDER! |
hopefully this will be a good way to show him how much he has meant to us and the joe community. he constantly gives us great work, and never ask anything in return...except some new o-ring figures.
might i suggest too, that in the following few weeks, we mainly do remakes of his work on thursdays. since im sure most of us have wanted to try and redo his work anyway. |

Crosshair needs a mustache to be Outrider? Why can't Outrider be bad? He seems to favor Bludd to me. |
Guys...I don't know what to say...I'm both humbled and honoured at once. I can only offer a heartfelt thanks! :o :)

What if?
Ok,
this sounds like a great project for the community to get in on. I'd like to do a story to dedicate to outrider, however i dont have a crosshair figure.. I do have a 1988 Wild Card figure I could use. http://www.yojoe.com/action/88/wildcard.shtml he has a mustache. :) I was thinking for those that wanted to participate maybe as long as Outrider is classed as the hero, we could use a best selective representation for him. this way it doesnt rule out anyone wanting to take part that doesn't have crosshair. :) thoughts? |
I'm down for that idea. the bulk of my collection is 25th, so no crosshair. Although Craig hates the NFO, we love Craig and would like to participate even if we are o-ring challenged. I am pulling for you sir, you are one of the best here and we want to keep it that way.

Support Outrider!

ah, that makes sense then... I have never seen a pic or anything of Outrider (Craig, right?) so I didn't know he sported a mustache. I will be glad to custom any of my figures for any member, especially in contribution to them:D |
I really like this idea :cool:
CF |
Oh, of course. Use whatever figure you think best for Outrider. Outrider, which do you prefer?
Quote:
|
Ok cool.
Ok cool. :cool:
I'm going to use Wildcard for my dio, I dont have a Cross Hair (although I do plan to do) so if i do get him before my dio begins I will definately switch it out for him :D |
Quote:
I'm too humbled to be choosey, whatever figure people wish to use is absolutely fine by me. :) |
my custom outrider.
 |
IF Outrider HAS to be a good guy, I think Skymate could represents him better cuz:
1. Has a moustache 2. Good guy 3. He is AUSSIE 4. And has cool accesories 5. I wish I have one.  http://www.yojoe.com/action/91/skymate.shtml What do you think Craig? |
skymate
Excellent choice rambo! :D
I'd repaint the hat though.. ;) |
As soon as I get the chance I'll use Skymate.

Quote:
What, Outrider wouldn't wear a bright magenta hat? |
naahh
Quote:
naahh :D i doubt he would, well Craig would you wear a bright magenta hat? :o |
|
Quote:
I think not! :eek: |
ha!
haha!
I knew you wouldnt! :D but best to be safe rather than assume.. but skymate is a good choice for you, dull down those neons and he would be a great selection, mainly because of what rambo said. :) |
Getting my stuff ready:

I bet it will have a lot of action! You should bring back your dio stories. chapter six is next? |
Quote:
Yeah, this is getting me all excited about making dios again. :) |
looks as if your dio is going to be pretty big.
|
cool... looking forward to your dio... I've been working on an "Outrider" custom for my own dio (don't worry, he won't suffer the same fate as the rest of the Joes).
|
The reason we chose Crosshair is because we know Craig counts him among his top faves. Those of us that have been here for several years knows that Craig tends to shoot pics of both Crosshair and Major Bludd the most. So the boss and a few others thought Crosshair would represent him best (over dork like Bazooka or Zap, JUST because he has a mustache doesn't mean Craig prefers the figure! lol).
I simply wrote the battleplan up. |
Quote:
I completely understand, and I have both Crosshair & Major Bludd, but I figured I would do something different for him, so I "made" an Outrider. |
I just hope someone doesn't think Link Talbot or Hard Drive represent Craig the best. lol
|
darn, you mean I shouldn't use Link?;)
|
I can't do much in the way dio work or pictures, but I can support Outrider
|
Just recently re did one of Craig's pics and hope to have another one ready by next week.
|
|
Thats sweet Hammer!
|
Awesome shot Hammer, the reflection is just too cool!
|
We love you Craig, I know you love Major Bludd and Arctic troops, so here you go...
 Bludd's the master of overcoming tough problems and fighting the odds, Enjoy brother, Dave |
Hammer, I love that repainted Cobra Indy Truck! Can't wait to see what you've got cooking! :D The reflection in the Crosshairs pics is awesome!
I have something in the works, gonna be out of town for few days though. :-/ |
