Howdy folks!

Have been a longtime member of the JoeCustoms community (stretching back to when it was still The Bivouac), and a Joe collector since before the 3-3/4" guys showed up (though the 3-3/4" crew has been my focus since they hit the scene in '82). Recently, despite fending off many temptations over the years to take the dive, I've finally started leaning towards the Action Force stuff (thanks to my bud Scrap-Iron, who pushed me over the edge by hooking me up with an Escape Armour). Another friend of mine, Chad_Ghost, recommended I pop over and check this place out.

Outstanding site! Looking forward to taking part in the message boards as I slowly increase my knowledge of Action Force and the Red Shadows. :D

Many thanks Baron! :) Yep, most of my customs...few and far-between as they are...are listed in the Customs section at my site:

And my username comes from my old '98 C5, which I sold about 3 years ago (pic attached). The car is long gone, but the name still sticks. :wink:

What the heck IS that Sinclair contraption? :confused:

That's a sweet car! How much was that numberplate, dare I ask? The Sinclair C5 was supposed to be the way forward about 20 years ago or so... it sank without trace after a massive amount of piss-taking.

Thanks for the link, I shall enjoy browsing your work. I see you're also a Zoids fan, I have the UK comics up at www.zoidstar.com you might like.

From an eighties point of vue, Sinclair really kicked as! Taking the piss was most fun though! :D
