JoeCanuck Trading Cards / Re: Trading Card Thoughts?
« on: June 10, 2008, 10:45:21 AM »
Aye, Mike sent me a ton of these cards and I've been including them with all my shipped orders and the response is great.

It raises awareness of the Canadian Convention, and reaches out to the fandom so that more and more fans can get involved with one another which is great for all.

I don't spend too much time on this board, and while I've never met Mike personally, he knows he can always count on me for donating parts for his convention figures every year, and to help promote his offerings to Joe Collectors the world over. If Joe Fandom had more Mikes in our ranks, imagine what our collecting world would be like!

yeah, i was told i needed to be ready to rock n roll by mid-february.

it just wasnt a 'fun' way of doing it. i understand thier deadlines and needs for entertainment. unfortunately i just didnt mesh with mine.

all the power to this thing though, id love to see the episodes.

im a pretty straight forward kinda guy, as those of you that have met me probably know. i dont lie and im not full o' crap. the show wanted me to do some sort of 'event', and wanted it done by february. im in the middle of a major joe room overhaul and have been for months.

but im doing it for ME and me alone at my own pace. not to meet any deadline. they suggested some sort of get together were i invite all the JC guys down and have a bbq and unveiling. so i got together with cabanajack who lives like an hour away and we started brainstorming.

now, my wife and i own our business (www.bentzphotography.com) and as a general rule, were booked 3 months in advance, but doing the holiday season its a REAL f=ing madhouse. so this tv project suddenly became a real hassle, because suddenly i wasnt thinking about doing something real for myself and the community, but doing it to meet a deadline and produce something forced.

and i just wasnt interested in that in the long run.

I bailed out.

I had about 6 conversations with these people, and seriously considered it for a short time. There was a time when I would have jumped at the chance, at this point I just dont care to impress people. I like showing and sharing my collection with my net buddies and my personal friends and family and thats it.

If the show wanted to come down and get a tour and do some interviews -great. They wanted me to do all sorts of stuff that I just wasnt interested in and wasnt going to force.

So, I bailed out. Im not interested in jumping thru the hoops they asked me to just to be on TV. Take me as I am dammit!
