BFTB will be six years old on 24th February! My current plans are:
* Get the Complete Works vols I-III finished and available
* Major Toy Archive Update (with much thanks to Chopper)
* Full Update for the Customs and Mutour sections
Additionally, I am working with Singabeer and Dave Tree to start up a BFTB shop. I would also very much like to get wave 2 of the Travelling Muton started as well. I'm hoping to get the missing sticker sheets uploaded and if possible, some site advertising as well.
The hit counter is at 48962, hopwfully we'll top the 50,000 by then!
Does anybody have any other ideas to help mark this auspicious occasion?

OK, I'm putting out a plea for Action Force photos. I'm planning an extensive update to the toy archive, adding the Hasbro-era Action Force to the Palitoy era. Chopper has been working like a champ figuring out which toys are which, and now we need some pictures. While we're at it, some of the Palitoy pics are a bit ropey and could do with replacing.
So, I'm asking for anything from any Action Force era, MOC, MIB, loose, cardbacks, accessories, stickers, blueprints, instructions, leaflets, you name it, I want it. As big and as bright as possible, please.
Any contributors will of course be immortalised in the Roll of Honour. Please e-mail pics to me at

Ah, I've just found out that the hard way that some e-mail programs reduce the size of attached images.
Please send submissions to me via
www.yousendit.com. Multiple submissions can be zipped into one file using Winzip or Winrar.
Thanks!

Putting the shout out again for as many pictures as possible. I intend to expand the toy archive to include the later Hasbro Action Force, GI Joe - The Action Force and GI Joe ranges.
I'd also like to add photos of the individual figure accessories, and if at possible I'd like to head each vehicle entry with the actual box art, although for that I would most likely need scans and not photographs.
Again, please can all submissions be .zipped nd sent via
http://www.yousendit.com to me at
