Blood for the Baron!

Nothing like good ole BAF. I've secretly been reading Johnny Red when its quiet at work Careful, it is REALLY addictive, and Dave bites as hard as a Tribble.

I don't bite, but I'm not housetrained either.

Do you live in the garden then dave?

Dave Tree wrote:addictive isn't it?

Damn right it is.
I found myself wishing for a time machine so I could go back and buy duplicates of all my old figures. Then leave them in the packaging.
Its a collector thing.
So I've decided the next best thing would be to start collecting the 25th Anniversary figures. I've know idea how I'm going to explain it to the Missus.
I've seen this book on Amazon. Is it any good? Anyone got it? Is it relevant to the 25th Ann series?

Cheers Bill,

Know any UK based sellers of the 25th Ann figures?
There's a few on ebay and Amazon but some of them are quite pricey.

Which book on Amazon, Jimbobx?

I can't see it moving from 1.6 to the pound for a while. Fingers crossed though.
What's the best place to buy from in the States?

Nice. What are the must have/difficult to find 25th Ann figures?

Apologies for all the questions - I need to fully explore my new Hobby.

Had to laugh when I saw the "people who bought this also.." bit.
