A Simple Thank You
« on: May 12, 2008, 03:49:22 PM »

Hi all! My wife, son and I went to the nearest flea market on Sunday and my son who is by the way a really big fan of this website and is also just 9 yrs. old bought another Beach Head figure. Why? I wasn't sure because he already had one. Well I thought maybe it might of broken and he wanted another one to replace the one that was broken. Well I just got back from work just now and I was walking by his room and I notice that he had painted the Beach Head figure all white with blue eyes. Well I know now why he wanted the extra Beach Head for. I want to tell you guys that I am so happy that you guys are making these newsletters and that everyone in here is always behave in a well manner. I don't customize very well and I will try and help him make the rest of the figures, now that I know he's really into it but if he did this, you never know he might be able to do the rest on his own. Thanks for helping my son get off the computer and use his hands on something more then typing and watching a TV screen.

That's awsome.  It's also good to hear that you encourage him to be creative.  As the years progress it feels more and more like Joecanuckers are one big family, so don't ever hesitate to ask or have your son ask any of the members any questions you or he may have about customizing or just help in general. 

Most of the credit for JoeCanuck goes to Mike for creating such a great site.
And thank you Hide Out for sharing this with us.

Send him over to www.joecustoms.com to give him ideas.

Plus I hear that there's a custom section in every newsletter.

I would like to correct your post

A fantastic, step by step, custom section with photos!

I have been doing my own customs of and on for several years and each month I am getting a new technique or tip that I know I will use.

Thanks everyone. I have also been printing out all the News letters so he can read them and he can share them with his friends at school. Funny thing is I've notice that a lot of his friends want a copy to and my paper has disappear as of lately.  ;D which is so great that he is finally getting into something I've liked over the years. I've also bought a few extra figures and placed them in his room so he can make his own Black ice and Shiver figure. Raptor. Thanks for the website @ Joecustums.com an amazing site of customs but way to advice for the both of us. Maybe when he gets a little bigger :)
