Hi there. I know most of you guys around here don't much know me, but I have a feeling you'll see alot more of me.

A few months ago I lost who I would consider to be my best friend, James Matt Ashe to cancer at the young age of 33. I miss him alot, and I was able to offer his wife what I considered to be a fair amount for his Joes; she was going to sell them to offset some bills. I was always more of a Transformers guy, but I always had a small Joe display to represent. I wanted to be able to let his vision and collection live on, because I loved going over there and seeing it. It reminds me of him and he had some great, imaginative displays and awesome customs.

So, as I'm unpacking it and organizing it, I thought I'd snap some pics before it's all together. I've added some 25th Anny stuff in as well. Here goes:

COBRA!!!

Crimson Guard:

Street Fight!!!

It is nice of you to keep your friends collection alive. And it was also nice of you to help his wife out with a little cash for the collection. My condolences go out to you, your friends wife and family and friends...

I'm sorry about the loss of your best friend. Losing someone is never easy. But by buying his collection, you didn't just do a good deed by helping out his wife in her time of need. You purchased a gift of sentimental value, that will forever remind you of the happy times you had together.
