Hey Alex (aka new list master)
Just a quick note on Tiggy's Canadian vacation. Larry (Arohk) & Jesse (Jessvader) are in the same province of British Columbia. It might speed things up a bit (like the guys in Oklahoma) if we put those 2 together. I don't mind letting Jesse have Tiggy before me. We will have to ask Paul (Kisstour) if he minds the minor travel adjustment? Larry and Jesse are on the west coast, I'm in the middle, and Paul is on the east coast. Might make the trip a little bit smoother. Thanks

A little update on TIGGY:
I took him to meet some of my friends, took him to starbucks for bad coffee and to meet Ramon... He is a Lili Ledy/old mexican toys/bootleg collector, he has one of the best LL loose sets I have ever seen, I asked him to bring some friends for TIGGY so a LL RR Boba Fett and some pretty ugly Bib fortuna bootleg came to talk to TIGGY while Ramon and I discussed about the hobby, politics, soccer and the most important issue: booty or boobs?
Then I took him for a nice high quality coffee to 'El Sorbo de Café' a pretty nice place close to home. There I saw Cristian (Mr. Ledy) and Pako, Cristian as you may know is a hardcore LL collector with an impressive collection and one of the top guys for Mexican bootlegs, Pako also collects LL and bootlegs, he has some amazing pieces inside his collection, we talked about bootlegs for hours. This place has a very nice characteristic, a lot of people passes by its window and Guadalajara is know for the pretty girls so, nice coffee with friends, talking about bootlegs and watching beauty girls passing by. You guys should look at peoples faces when they see us with a table full of figures. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!!
Latter I went to talk to my friend José (DelToro_Sith) he collects LL, carded, carded 12", loose, overstock, you name it. José has some amazing stories about LL, he even risked his life a couple of times... The only thing I can think about that: it was worth it! A 12" LL Luke spend some time with TIGGY while we talked about 'monos'.
Yes I know, we are not good looking and let's face it we all want to see...
MORE BOOBS!!!
So, TIGGY is fine, we are having a good time, I will take him to more places and more pictures will follow. Write you guys back soon.
Cheers Ozio
