Title: Hello from New York
Post by: Darth Hideous on November 16, 2005, 08:33:33 PM
My name is Barry.  I have been listening to the podcast since the 1st one (I discovered it via a posting in the Rebel Scum forums)

I am a life long Star Trek fan (mainly TOS and TNG) as well as a Star Wars and general Sci-Fi fan.

Like Rico, I collect prop replicas and sci-fi toys.  I also have an extensive collection of 1970's era GI Joe figures, accessories and vehicles.

Love the podcast, keep up the good work!!

Welcome aboard Barry!

Make yourself confortable and enjoy. So far the forums had been a good experience.

I don't collect anything but I sure love everything sci fi.

Hope we have some nice discussions!

Barry, welcome!  Ah yes, the Rebel Scum Forums...a great place to keep up on all the latest Star Wars collectibles.  Especially the high end prop types that I favor these days.  Glad to have another collector aboard.  I think I'll make a collecting section sometime soon.  Again thanks for listening to my shows and joining up here.

Hey Spock, don’t he a hater  :D

I grew up on Star Trek re-runs, but I was 9 years old when Star Wars came out in 1977, and if you were a young boy in that era...Star Wars became engrained in your very soul...there was just no way around it.

I enjoy both SW and ST in their own way.

My problem (if you want to consider it a problem) is that I am a collector of “things” by my nature.  I have collected Star Trek “things” for a long time, but at the end of the day, there have been far more “REALLY COOL” star Wars items to collect over the years than there have been REALLY COOL Star Wars items, so SW seems to get a lot more of my time these days that ST.

Hey I was little when the SW reruns were out and I was nuts about. Then I was converted to trekdom after I saw the TOS Movies. Now I have resisted the SW influence for 8 years.
Ooh im soooo scared of the "force"!
::)
Sry Rico for the flame wars.

No problem.  As I have said I enjoy both TREK and Star Wars.  I could of easily done a Podcast more Star Wars focused, but I think TREK needed the coverage more.  Basically, I enjoy any good Sci-Fi and Fantasy entertainment.
