Hi Guy's, following on from the 2 pack thing Jez organised I wanted to put my best foot forward & suggest a whip round for one of the backbones of this great forum, it has come to all our attentions that a certain member seems to be in a bit of a 
in his search for a grail item & bloody hard thing to find, a pop up lightsaber for R2.
I am sure there will be not as much as one member here that could say a bad word about Richard, he has done so much for the forum since he joined & this year alone his dedication to the forum has been overwhelming, not to mention his willingness to help members out off forum including myself, the guy really does go way & beyond the call of duty & we need more members like him, so I would like to take it upon myself to start the ball rolling.
What I suggest is (& I say this with trepidation after the Deber fiasco), that we do something similar - everyone or at least most of us have something excess to our needs with vintage, as lets face it we all got it bad & can't help ourselves when it comes to picking up SW goodness :lol: so I am asking that everyone that should send a little something over to me to add to the pot, we then either auction it off or do the same thing Jez did with the send in a fiver to draw a lot & the proceeds go into picking the pop up sabre up & with luck a little more as a stocking filler for a most deserving SWFUK'er
I would like to put into the pot (no surprises for guessing BTW) a Kenner Ree Yee's MOC & a couple of loose complete figures.
If you guys think its a good idea & a worthy cause, please chime in & I will organize it.
EDIT: Right on further consideration & with so many of our brethren way out there spread all over the globe, I think its a wise idea to open it up for cash donations not just vintage, as I know not everyone has something in there collection they can spare, so if you want to give but don't have anything spare & posting may be cost inhibiting, do please feel free to offer a small cash donation by way of paypal, just post here & I'll drop you my PP addy via PM, its not the amount that counts its all in the giving & helping a fellow member out, so no matter if its only 50p its all good as every bit helps & I am sure everyone could spare 50p so don't be shy in helping to get this rolling guys.
2ND EDIT: - did not think, but we need a cut off date for this so if we say last date for donations is the 17th, that gives it 10 days which should be plenty of time for all the member who wish to give a little some time to sort it out, thanks for all the support so far guys.
