Well folks time is running out, just four more days to get your name here so Remco can get this all sorted and we can start shopping for our secret santa gift!

[Mr. Black]

With Barmic_Rin we're at eleven participants, a great turnout already. Should be fun! Barnic_Rin and Kelcken, be sure to send me a pm with your full name and adress.

Quick update as Japanese WiFi doesn't like PM' s or emails for some reason. My address is correct, there's just the house name, not  a door number know it's not ideal to post here, but reasons as above, and I don't want to delay this from progressing. Looking forward to getting this started!!

[Mr. Black]

Alright folks, it's October 2nd, so no more entries will be allowed. Each and everyone has messaged me their details, except for one. I will message him one final time. I'll draw the Secret Santas by this weekend. Stay tuned and either sharpen your customizing tools or scout the shopping aisles in advance

And whaddayaknow? Turns out Secret Santa is largely based on the Dutch Sinterklaas tradition introduced centuries ago by the early settlers in America

[Mr. Black]

Alright, fellas. I have just sent out an e-mail to each and everyone of you, regarding your Secret Santa recipient. If you haven't received an e-mail from me, please let me know asap.

It'd be great if you could get your gift out in time for the holidays, but it's understandable if you're a little late, especially considering the international shipments.

Where applicable I have stated the recipient's wishes, but again, it's the thought that counts. Please let me know one way or another when you have mailed out your gift, so I can keep track of it.

Also, if you have any questions, just reply here, or contact me.

To all, good luck and have fun!

[Tamer]

Thanks once again for organizing all of this Remco!

[Mr. Black]

I have had a couple of members requesting to send out the e-mail with their recipients again, which is no problem at all (I'm practically cybernetically connected to my phone), so if any of you hasn't received my e-mail or lost it, shoot me a message and I'll resend it asap.

I didn't really know where to post this. I figured this topic as its still open, rather then making a new one or in my collection thread.

My Secret Santa gift came in the mail yesterday. Bobby-brazil had me, and Bobby if you're reading this, thank you very much! Absolutely amazed at the package I received! He sent me a vehicle which has machine guns on it, I believe this might be GI Joe related? I can definitely use this for a custom in the future, for sure. It looks so badass haha. A pilot, Tycho Celchu (one of my favorites!) was seated inside. Other pilots included Keyan Farlander (another favorite of mine!) John D. Brannon (Red 4 at Yavin), Jake Farrell, Shira Brie, and a Hammerhead like figure (not sure of his name I'll have to look him up). The last gift I got was a lightsaber handle. Although not really heavy, it's got a good weight to it. Honestly, when I saw it I actually said "That's awesome."  I have it right on my table, and it really makes a great display piece.

Thanks again Bobby, much appreciated!

Here are some pics.

I am glad you got it, I was going to fill open spaces with clones as packing material but there was no room, the vehicle is joe but it started out as a ice vehicle I painted it as a swamp vehicle. The light saber was made as yoda's before all of the computer help was available. Glad you enjoy it.

Just an update, my will be going out this weekend.
I would have loved to have finished it by now, but real life got in the way. Throw in my 9-5 work, rehearsals for my theatre groups Xmas performances, my voluntary work on hospital radio, chasing acting agencies to get me more jobs & sessions with my voice coach, and even sleep is a luxury!
It SHOULD be with you before Xmas, if not, sorry for the delay, but it is coming your way!!
