Hi my name is Dora and I live in Modesto, CA and am almost 31 years old. I started watching Buffy back with Welcome to the Hellmouth and have been addicted ever since. I started collecting the action figures a while back when I found the whole 1st series at Toys R Us. I am engaged to MKBuffy who is patiently trying to help me do customs. Really he is trying to teach me patience ;D. I dont really collect any other figures but Buffy. I tried Lord of the Rings but it didn't stick. That is about it for me.

Hello, I am Gerry. . .and I am and alcholic. [audience: hello Gerry]
I'm 25 I think. Currently living in Seattle, moved up about a year ago from Salt Lake City. Right now I am looking for a job, kinda going back to school in case I want to go into engineering, but am also looking into getting a masters.
I started playing with toys again back in 95 when Hasbro started releasing new Star Wars toys. I also bought some MAC figs for the Witchblade line. I decided to renew one time and got the blue shirted Buffy. That was my first figure. That was before I had even seen the show. With one of my roommates watching it at the time I gave it a chance and have been obsessed with it ever since.

Hi Everyone! I’m Dave living in Collegeville, the suburbs of Philadelphia. We’ll I feel better now, I thought I was the oldest one on the forum but I see a few others in their early thirties. (We’ll I too was bitten by a vamp at 21 and haven’t aged since!) Ok, Ok, I got addicted to Buffy after the movie came out and heard the hype about a new series. Since then I didn’t miss a single episode for 7 years. Angel’s show will continue on I hope! And soon I think Giles may get his own spin off from what I hear. I’m a graphic-web-multi-media designer and developer. I’ve done air-brush, carve, sculpt, paint, draw, and all the new media digital printing, video, sound recording, and a lot of flash animations. After I ordered the (canceled) figures from MAC, I built a room to display all my “Toys” So now the new figures are no more, I am trying to complete my collection of Buffy to fill the empty shelves I set aside for them. So help! I’m looking to trade and buy to complete the collection, and maybe get some customs done! I’ve collected action figures since I was a young pup. I have old: Micronauts, GI-Joe, Star Wars and newer: a lots of McFarline’s Series like movie maniacs, Tortured souls, and other movie and horror figures, some Sideshow figures, and of course MAC’s lines of Buffy, Angel, Vampirella, and some Fathom. I have some Varner Statues, and a cool collection of swords, daggers, and misc. torture devices. I might of missed something but I’m not much of a writer …bla bla ...“Bored now….”<br>

howdy. Me, the quick version:
Zel, ominous lurky person extraordinaire!

Buffy fan since 1997, Buffy figure collector since the beginning!
like: anime, manga, action figures, drawing, writing, creating comics
dislike: people in general, (working in customer service will do that to you) but I tend to like people better when they're just words on a page! Oh, and I'm really really disliking MAC nowadays...
habits: tearing my fingernails apart, using too many exclamation marks!!, randomly speaking in Buffy quotes
coming out of a year off from school, starting college in fall. Currently working at JCPenney, a job I despise more and more each day.
I am currently in love with Adrianne from America's Next Top Model. But you really don't need to know that...

Hi everyone. New here, I was just a lurker over at the Moore forum. I live in Dallas and am pretty new to collecting. And pretty much screwed now with the cancellation of the lines. But it's nice to see all of the same lost souls over here.

I am Dan. I live in New Hampshire. I am 21 and just graduated from college...and now I'm unemployed...apparently there's not a huge market for Critical Studies of Film majors out there. I'm personally shocked. Who knew? Anyway, I've been a Buffy fan since they had reruns of season 2 during the summer, showing season 1 on Monday nights...so I basically saw everything the few months before season 3. That was a good summer. I started watching because I had seen every episode of whatever I used to watch on Tuesday nights during the fall/spring and heard the show was REALLY good. TV critics got something right. So I was there near the beginning and bought all of the first figures and everything since. Still looking for a fair price on the Gentlemen though...

Hi I'm Barb. I live in Calgary Alberta (which is in Canada near the Rocky Mountains) and am 27 years old. I am soon to be unemployed database administrator as I quit my current job.
My best friend got me hooked on buffy by lending me the angel buffy videotapes. Started watching Buffy religiously in season 4 and Angel in season 1. Now I am a fanatic. I have all kinds of collectables and an almost complete set of action figures. Now I face a problem cause I want to display them on a shelf but I just can't bring myself to take them out of the box (sigh). ****************** Update.... no longer unemployed. Have new fantatic PT job working as a project manager at company that does IT consulting for Non-Profit organizations.
Also started my own company to fill in the "free" time doing database management consulting.
Me V. Happy. Me miss Buffy...

MAC ( don't hate me ) blue jacket buffy. i have started to customize the buffy figures...starting out slow just doing a repaint of giles similar to flobbo's (mine's better tho haha j/k), but i prefer to make diarrammas instead. my boyfried laughed at me when i got all upset that there would be no more figures. hmm what else...oh yea i like tori amos, rollercoaster tycoon, and have 4 tattoos and 7 (used to have 13) piercings. ok...think i'm done now ;D

Well, this is the frist time I've been in "The Lounge", so this seems like a good thread to post in. My name is Chad, I'm 16, and I live in the sunny state of Florida. I've been into Buffy since it first started and I instantly fell in love with it. I became addicted and watched it every week. I continually watch the reruns on FX, and also have the first 4 seasons on DVD. I Just recently started collecting the figures after I picked up Giles and Oz at my local comic store. I've been searching the internet for all of the figures I don't have, and have a pretty good collection for someone who just started not too long ago. Here are the figures I have: S1: Buffy, Willow, Angel, Vamp Angel, The Master S2: Giles, Oz, Buffy S3: Spike S4: Drusilla, Vamp Drusilla, Both Gentlemen Specials: Dark Witch Willow (pre-ordered) Angel S1: Angel, Vamp Angel I'm still missing quite a few, but I'll hopefully catch up soon. I also collect the Buffy comic books. I have every issue they have come out with (except for the Spike and Dru series). I love collecting the Buffy and Angel action figures, and I can't wait to complete my collection.

I'm old,well older than most of you.I feel like Giles and you're all scoobies! I live in London and have watched Buffy since it first aired on Sky One. I started collecting the figures after I got a couple really cheap from Woolworths.There aren't many stores over here that stock them, so I didn't really become obsessed with collecting them til I went to Florida and they were everywhere! Brought about 7 home with me and I've been on a mission ever since.

Flobbo. . .wow! Think about it. death means that you can't guilt him into getting you a new computer. Also you can't blackmail him with saying that you'll tell his boyfriend that he isn't doing it for him. Think boy, THINK! tinauk. what does older than most mean? You can't possibly be older than Callisto. She is on her deathbed.

Ah, Raven, so you were the one who went to the Cleveland Buffy Vulkon? The link you gave didn't work just now, got a message saying the server is down for quick maintenance. I have a pic of me somewhere.... lemme find the link... www.geocities.com/garbageboxlove/me.htmlNot the best pic of me. My hair had grown out when that one was taken... so it's a bit darker than it is now. Hopefully evil GeoCities will allow that link to work. F***ing Yahoo crap... I'll have more pics soon, from the Tampa Buffy Vulkon! I have to transfer them, crop/resize etc... and find a home online to share (Yahoo crap again probably).
