Has this forum died?

[leadslinger]

Does anyone still read or post here?

[MrBlitzer]

still read !

[zedhatch]

I know some are still on here, I stop by every few days to see if anything new has been posted, but there are dead days. Dead forum, no just not as active as it used to be.

[Monte Williams]

"Has this forum died?"

Yes.

Yes, it has.

But then, all of JoeBattlelines seems deadish; it's not just the Sigma section, though it may be the worst.

Compared to HISS Tank, certainly, JBL is rather dead. And yet, overall, I still prefer JBL for some reason; I’ve posted 9 times at Hiss Tank since April 2007—I’ve posted 3,066 times here at JBL since October 2006.

Nostalgia, maybe; back in the Sigma days this place may as well have been my homepage.

There's no Sigma talk on HISSTANK though is there?? I still check this site every week or so. I feel bad I haven't finished any of the customs or kitbashes started down in my basement. I still love those toys and haven't found anything new I like as much. I'm busy trying to track down 8" scale friendly vehicles, monsters and weapons. I got a couple nice vehicles from the UK in the HM Armed Services line, a bunch of Max Steel Elementors from Mexico and a few other bits and pieces (just picked up a nice 12" G.I. Joe kayak)...

And my dream of having at least a couple female Sigma sized Joes continues as I stalk the Final Fantasy section of Ebay...

id love to see the UK and Mexico vehicles you speak of, ive found some Bratz vehicles to be nicely in scale. Ive found the Chopper in 3 different colors, a random find of a speed bike, and 2 cars that work well, but the fun of urban vehicles is limited of course.

Long Live Sigma 6 ! And honestly it isnt really about the storyline for me but somethign about this scale and style of toy, greatest ever IMO.

A while back VP posted his Lady Jaye and i was never able to find the doll he used, sold out everywhere i looked.

I haven't had a chance to take a picture of mine with the Sigma 6 figures--I will sometime--but here are links to a couple of pics just some of the stuff I'm talking about. Enjoy!!

Cool I am glad to see so many views and replies. As soon as I can shoot some pics I will post them.

I will always love the Sigma 6 line, but there just really isn't much to talk about these days. Believe me, I wish there was!

[destro]

i read the forums every so often, not as much as i once did...

vehicles have never been a problem for sigma 6 scale figures, one just needs to dedicate some time in finding them, they are out there....

i am still waiting on somebody to break the locks on the factory closets that have the S6 dusty's and joe colton sets in them....oh yeah they are out there

[Dusty Ayers]

I will always love the Sigma 6 line, but there just really isn't much to talk about these days. Believe me, I wish there was!

I love the figs but I don't customize so there isn't much to talk about. I think the only thing that would get this forum hoppin' again is if there was new product which isn't going to happen.

[Sgt. Slaughter]

There's no Sigma talk on HISSTANK though is there??

Not really. Never has been much there.

SIGMA 6 CENTRAL WILL NEVER DIE!

[Amaranth]

I do really remember when this forum was a bit more active... But, I try not to think of it as dead...just sleepy!

[Shogun]

I still check from time to time, and I'm definitely using sigmas more than anything else.
They really are incredible toys.

I've been a little disappointed lately with the flow of POC stuff - there just isn't much. And the club - don't get me started. I think I'm finally done with the club.

But the sigmas are still fantastic. In fact, I found one of those 12" ninja cycles that was really a repainted sigma cycle at Ross. That was a sweet pick-up.

Anyway, I agree that this is kind of a "lull" time to be a joe fan (despite the high quality of the poc figures), but Sigma fans are still out here, just quiet!
