"THE MAGNIFICENT 7" SLIDESHOWS (2/1/10):
Thanks to the extreme kindness of my brother, I recently was fortunate enough to reacquire my childhood GIjOEs and am creating a weekly web comic to document their "reawakening" into the 21st century. To share my joy at this very rare reunion, please take a look at their slideshows as they are listed below. Comments are always welcome. Enjoy!

NEW 2009 PoP WEBSITE UPDATES (2/1/10):
Customer Input:
I want to thank everyone out there who sent in a suggestion for new products over the years. MOST of your ideas have now become REALITY and are being added to the new website for sale. Please keep those ideas and comments coming!

Behind the Scenes: As to the website itself, work is progressing steadily and I know you'll be thrilled with the results. The new site is simpler, brighter, cleaner, with loads of new products. I've completed all the new American patches (USMC, Navy, USCG, Army, USAF, etc.) plus all of the NASA, Fire, Police, EMT, etc. and have finally moved onto all of the major foreign categories (German, Japanese, British, etc.). This is obviously a huge project, but I know all of the new products are amazing and exciting and will provide YOU, the collector/customizer with far greater options when creating your own custom figures and dioramas. I know they've improved my own tremendously!

When it's Ready: In addition to a greatly expanded lineup of patches, the 2010 Patches of Pride website will also debut several new decal sets, diorama accessories and much more . When it's completed, there will be a big online virtual ribbon cutting ceremony complete with a customer appreciation "Grand Opening" sale, free giveaways, etc.

Stay tuned folks, this is going to be even better than I ever imagined (and I set the bar pretty high)!
