Extremely sorry for digging this thread up but I'm just wondering does anyone know where this Member who owned this is now? Anyone got an Email address for him or is he here under a different usernames? Any help would be appricated Just a question... Are you an old user who suddenly remembered this piece last night, or were you browsing the net, looking for this particular item and found this thread? I'm always intrigued when old threads get brought up. Honestly, I don't understand the reasoning behind not bringing up old threads. I mean, you're going to get people telling you that it's wrong and I think that's bullsh*t. Why can't a thread from 2 years ago be brought up now? To those who got on this thread to chastise this guy for bringing up a 2 year old thread, what is it about a a thread being bumped that makes you mad? Is discussion about a toy from 1990 ok to talk about in 2012 but not 2014? I have always felt the same. I hadn't seen this piece before, and now I have. I don't know why it's an issue, but I know its frowned upon.

I don't know why it's an issue, but I know its frowned upon. Holy 12 year member with 11 posts! Dude! Are you like, always on here and never post? Did you suddenly remember your password after 12 (!) years and decide to get on?! Someone, get this man a 10 year member tag NOW! He has 11 posts! In 12 years! You my friend are the most inquiring member on this board. I thought I was cool, what with being on here for 12 years and having around 2500 posts. But you... you're far better than me. Remember kiddos, what Silent Bob says always matters because he chooses his words very carefully. I'll listen to someone like this dude over someone who has 50,000 posts every day. Why? Because this dude has been around here for a decade and only speaks when he thinks the situation merits his input, as apposed to people who are on here all the time and feel like they need to chime in on every thread. Rebel123, the rest of my day is wrecked because I must know your story.

Did you mean to say "woah" in reference to me? What uh...? Problem? How is marking out over a 12 year member of this board gracing us with his presence a problem?

Rebel123, the rest of my day is wrecked because I must know your story. Lol Hitman, that rant had me rolling! I used to run a couple old sites dedicated to Hasbros and Jakks as a teenager, and I had a custom site for awhile. I stumbled upon this site again a couple months ago when I googled the orange card Hasbro series. I've learned a lot to say the least. I've been on the bay recently trying to rebuild some of my old collections, and may get back into customizing a bit. Hopefully the next twelve years will generate more than 11 posts! For now, BACK INTO THE SHADOWS!

I had no idea a bossman existed! I've only ever seen Hogan, Warrior, Jake and Hacksaw. Are there any others that I don't know about?

Is discussion about a toy from 1990 ok to talk about in 2012 but not 2014? I wholeheartedly agree with this. Why should a new thread have to be started on a vintage toy subforum when there is plenty of great information in the original thread. Sometimes it seems like the only time the moderators show their faces around here is when an old thread is bumped. "Oh look! A 2 year old thread was bumped. I can finally show them that I'm needed around here!" Completely ridiculous.

I can't see what the problem is here. I've been a member here a few years and never knew Boss Man excisted until I saw this! Sometimes people miss things and if it wasn't for this I wouldn't of known it was even out there. It's a great figure, so great in fact that for the first time in about a year I've took the option to sign in and comment. How can someone be criticised for talking about a classic figure on a figure site! Signing in everyday and commenting on everything doesn't make you more important than someone who broweses through and doesn't say anything.

The guy was bumping it because he is looking to buy one, So that's a good reason to Bump it??

If we talk about an old thread for a few days, what does it hurt? More than one of us didnt even know this figure existed. No problem in my book.

No problem in my book. agreed. it's not like Star Toys Bossman is any more or less relevant in 2014 than it was when this post was made. A new post for this discussion (which is mostly nonsense arguing over whether there should BE discussion, keeping the discussion around longer) wouldn't serve any purpose when there's nothing wrong with this one. Until you've got moderator stars.. don't moderate.

I would have to say that I would want to see discussions continued in the same thread just to save time trying to locate the old ones for reference. Just a quick look tells me that there were three threads on the subject this year (all recent), 1 last year, 2 in 2012 and 3 in 2011. Why have that many threads on the same subject? This is the only site I frequent in which this is frowned upon.

Exactly! we had 3 different star toys threads on the first page the other day, because some guy bumped or created them, because he wants Bossman
