Hey everyone,
I've been posting here for a year now, but have yet to formally introduce myself to the board, so here it goes, haha.
My name is Shiloh, I'm 25, male. I was born 2 months premature and with cerebral palsy. I use a scooter and crutches to help me get around. I'm currently in my senior year of college, majoring in communications with a focus on public relations and advertising, at the University of Evansville.
I've been a big fan of Buffy since the very first episode I watched, which I believe was in April 2001. And I officially became a diehard fan when I saw "The Gift" about one month later--that is my favorite buffy episode. In the process, I have also become a diehard Sarah Michelle Gellar fan--I think she is an extraordinary actress.
One of my other favorite TV shows is called "Beauty and the Beast" which aired from 1987-1990 on CBS and starred Linda Hamilton and Ron Perlman. My favorite type of music is pop/rock/R&B and my favorite singer is Mariah Carey. I've been a fan of hers since 1992. I actually have gotten to meet Mariah twice and get my pictures taken with her. She was very genuine in person, and seemed to really care about her fans.
I love to do all kinds of things, like going to the movies, going out to eat, shopping, being outside in nature, swimming, hanging out with my family and friends.
Shiloh

This is more like a re-introduction, since I joined the board ages ago, and haven't posted in years. I'm Sara, 29 and currently in the midst of finding a new job(s) since my main one will be laying me off in a few months (darn retail and bad economy). I've been a Joss 'verse fan for years, going back to season one of BTVS, even though I really didn't fall in love with that show until season 2 (the episode was Passion). I love Angel, Firefly/Serenity and Dollhouse just as much. Other shows I love are Supernatural, Sons of Anarchy, Friday Night Lights, Burn Notice and Criminal Minds. I'm an avid shopper, love music and singing, enjoy all types of movies and own more books than my local library. I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things around here again. Attending this years SDCC for the first time really made me remember why I love collecting figures, reading comics and just talking about stuff I love. Hope to chat with everyone again soon. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

G'day everyone in Figsland ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) My name is Jess, and I'm 20 yrs old. I study Psychology at Uni, work in a DVD store and volunteer at a counselling hotline. I've been a Buffy fan harcore for the last 3 years or so, but it's been part of my life since I was about 12. I'm now an all-things Whedon fan, everything from Firefly to Sugarshock! I'm also a TV fan in general. Shows that I love include: Black Books, Lost, Heroes, Supernatural, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Kyle XY, Dead Like Me, Jericho, The Office, Arrested Development, Scrubs, Skins, Dresden Files, Dexter, Bones, American Dad, Paranoia Agent.... hmm probably others but that's more than enough to give you an idea of how much TV means to me ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) I'm a regular member over at SlayAlive - My first major exporation of the Buffy online fandom! (I've dabbled in Harry Potter and Twilight online fandoms, but really found my home with Buffy!). I decided to join here because I've been experimenting with my sculpting skills (I use that word lightly!) and tried to make minis after having a look through the tutorials over here and being in love with Shivi's work! Skytteflickan suggested I sign up and I don't know why I hadn't already! So here I am! I've posted the pics of the minis I made and really looking forward to some tips and helpful critiques! Hope to get to know you all! And have to say this site is fantastic! I LOVE customs ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Hi everyone calls me Bunny ![](http://www.freesmileys.org/emoticons/emoticon-animal-025.gif) I'm 27yrs single, I have just started too live on my own. I have been a fan of both Buffy and Angel, since they were on TV here in the Netherlands. I have been a collector of BtVS statues and Action Figures for about 10yrs, first with the help from my grandfather (he bought me most of the statues at the time). Since then I have carried on expanding the collection. I have met and had my photo taken with: James Masters, Eliza Dushku, Amber Benson, Julie Benz, Mercedes McNab, and Anthony Head. I also went on vacation in 2002 to LA, to see the various BtVS locations. I hope to expand my collection, by trying my hand at converting AF.

Post by happybunny on Jan 18, 2010 12:49:19 GMT -5
Well x-esque, I visited LA with my father when he was on a business trip. I had no idea that LA was so big so I only got to see:
Torrance high school which was used as Sunnydale high, school was still sitting so I could only take a few photos.
1313 Cota drive is the house used as Buffy`s house 1360 Revello drive.
Ennis Brown house Griffith park is Angels mansion, the house was closed up for repairs.
The Hyperion Hotel from the Angel is a real hotel in downtown LA.
Willow is a street name by the TV studio`s I was looking for the factory used in I Robot, I didn't find it.
The Charmed house is in LA at 1329 Carrol Ave and not San Francisco. I found this out when talking with a fan, who was staying in the same hotel as we were.

Hi everyone! I just found this forum yesterday and I can already tell I'm going to be here a lot so I thought I might as well introduce myself! I'm Kirsty and I'm 30 and I never stopped playing with action figures *cough*. I've been a Jossverse fan for what seems like forever. Buffy got me pretty much thoroughly entrenched in fandom, going to cons, collecting the figures and spending way too much time on forums when I was supposed to be studing. Amazingly though, despite being into art and craft from a very young age I only just started customising and not even through the jossverse but through my other great love, Stargate Atlantis. I was making cracky Stargate Atlantis comics and thought hey wouldn't it be neat if I could re-do the episode where John was transforming into a bug. And so my very first custom was born. I was shocked and flattered when some time later, one of my regular readers asked if she could commission me to create a Centaur John for her. It was a huge learning curve, but also so much fun and I was really pleased with the results (as was she - she commissioned another 3 figures straight away!) and utterly hooked! So far I've been only making Atlantis figures, but now I'm so addicted I hope to branch out to other fandoms, especially my beloved Jossverse. I'm looking forward to talking customising with you all, picking up some great tips (thanks for all the tutorials!) and seeing all your wonderful creations. I must say, what I've seen so far is incredible. You're a hugely talented bunch. Hopefully some of that talent will rub off on me ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Hi everyone, new recruit here *g*
My name is Sandrine and I live in that tiny, little corner of Europe called Switzerland. I've been a fan of the Jossverse ever since I stumbled by accident on a Buffy season 3 episode more than 10 years ago.
Until now, I've been mostly collecting trading cards related to his shows, and I had managed to resist buying other kinds of collectible (also being a student meant I had to make choices as to what I could buy). But as I was looking through the ebay listings the other days after a couple of years worth inactivity, I stumbled upon a few really cool figures and statues and decided to look more into them. It's while researching for a listing of existing statues that I found your forum, and just after half an hour, felt I would be right at home here (even though I don't customize myself - but I sure love those I've seen so far!)
Looking forward to reading you all!
