Welcome to 2000AD Online

Welcome, Bob!  Good to see you over here.

I'm sure you'll love Mongrol, by the way - he's a beast.  You'll have to pick up Ro-Jaws to go with him...

Cheers,
David

Thanks David,
Much appreciated...I think I'll hold off on Ro Jaws at the moment as I'm saving up again for Hammerstein !!
( and a Judge Dredd Helmet from Planet Replicas.....orders being taken again at end of February / beginning March )... I'm hoping that Hammerstein will be the next to be released....Do you know if that's the case ??
Cheers,
Bob

As far as we know, Hammerstein's next.  Not sure when, but probably at least a couple of months away.  I'll post any info (or someone else will) in the 3A thread - or make a new thread for Hammerstein when the time comes.

[Sideshow Bob]

Thanks for the welcome, Judge Jack...

Expect to be spending a bit of time browsing through the threads here..

Cheers..

[Sideshow Bob]

Thanks again, David...
I'll keep my eyes open for the Hammerstein info......I'll need to get saving though, coz I'm expecting him to be around the $250 as well........
Cheers

Welcome Sideshow Bob and JimBobMarley.

Surprised you haven't been around these parts sooner JimBobMarley. That is a fine blog you are running. Been aware of it for some time.

Hi All,
I'm new to all this stuff, although I've been a reader for a while I thought I'd better introduce myself..

I'm a long time 2000AD reader,  which have then led me into other Comics and Graphic novels,  which then led me into collecting artwork,  then collecting figures...etc, etc... It's a slippery slope once you start on it and somehow no matter how much you get it never seems to be enough......Coz there is always something great out there !!.......I blame the Internet ( and eBay )....

As I write this, I'm waiting for delivery of a 3A 1/6 scale Mongrol from America....Why ??....Well I saw several photos of him in other threads here,  and it looked just AWESOME !!  and I just couldn't believe how I managed to miss it when it came out in the shops... I realise it would have only been in a few select shops but it honestly completely passed me by..........My Mongrol has just arrived in Britain yesterday ( 8th ),  and now I'm like a kid again, desperate for him to arrive, to see him and unpack him.  He will have pride of place ( along with my MegaHeroes Dredd statue ) in my guitar room....

Cheers to you all, and hope to contribute to some threads soon...I've already 'met' some of you via ComicArt Fans website....Bob

Is that the purchased Mongrol in yout avatar? That looks awesome!

[Sideshow Bob]

Hi Mabs,
Yep, thats the 1/6th Scale Mongrol and bought from 7-Hobby.com. and cost me US$ 295.40 including postage
from USA.....Shop link is http://www.7-hobby.com/     It's absolutely awesome, and way beyond my wildest expectations...fully poseable and with phenomenal articulation and just massive...Very impressive...

Just checked today (23rd March ) and it's sold out at the moment..
However,  they have (available at the moment) the Black Hole Mini Mongrol 1/12th scale and its in stock for US$ 119.00....
The original coloured mini Mongrol is available for pre-order for US$ 89.90....
Cheers,
Bob

Huh. Just figured out I need to post here before I can post on other threads? Learn something new every day.

So.. hello. I've been on the forum for years under a couple of different names, usually because I log out and can't remember what the name and password combination was. Hopefully, this time I'll remember. My name's Paul and I'm a Scotsman living in South Africa. (Not Cape Town, alas, otherwise I would have been trying my damnedest to be an extra on the movie.)

[Sideshow Bob]

Hi Paul,
And welcome from a fellow Scot.....Still living in Scotland and virtually 'snowed in' at the moment....
Great stuff !!

I think you have to post several times before being allowed to post elsewhere ( to prove you're not a spambot ) or until one of the moderators gives you more access...

I think Richmond Clements is one and if you ask nicely he'll upgrade your status..
Cheers and Welcome....( Some really good threads here )
Bob

Hi all,

I used to read 2000ad about 20 years ago but eventually drifted away - now that I think about it, it was around the time of the Stallone movie which as I recall had a serious effect on the prog!!

Anyway, I bought the new film recently (much better!) and have started reading the Megazine again and have been really enjoying it.  So, I decided to join the forum and get involved with all the discussions -  I have to say, we never had this ability when I was a lad and I'm really impressed with the community on here from fans to artists - its ace!!   

Cheers.
