Welcome aboard man!

You're collecting is definately growing quick! It's gotta be killing oyu waiting for the MGS3 premium package in the mail heh. Mine has just been released from customs and I'll get it Money. For once, I'm actually looking forward to a Monday!

I'll keep my eye out for some of those items, mostly the rarer ones. I keep lists of everyone and who's looking for what so you never know when you'll get a random email heh.

Yeah I only started buying two weeks ago! I had the games when they were released apart from MGS, but then I got the Limited Edition MGS4 in June and I really started collecting anything and everything since then.

Yeah the suspense kills me waiting for goodies in the mail. But from Japan, things always arrive here within 3 workign days, from past experiences anyway. I cannot wait for my MGS3 Premium pack!

In the mail: Just snapped up MGS (PAL) Silver Premium pack (less than perfect might I add) for £47 plus postage. I'm still on the look out for a sealed one though.

Wow, you keep lists of peoples wishlists...well..let's think... :) Nice one man, that's really cool. Perhaps that could work as a thread or something (then again, it would be huge so perhaps not sucha good idea!).

Anyway, thanks for the welcome man and I look forward to contributing to what seems like a qualty community!
