I'm the LCS owner, and yes, I have the Valiant logo tattooed on my arm. I got it as a wedding present in 1993, so it is a bit faded. And yes, I did get a gold book for it during the Deathmate tour, when I was living in St. Louis. As I waited in line to get into the store, someone was at the front, asking if you were a Valiant fan (which I found to be kind of silly, since I was standing in line). When it was my turn, I showed the tattoo. They were apparently giving out foil cards, but the person thought I deserved more than a card, so I got a gold Turok, which I thought was pretty cool. Anyway, I had no idea this site was here and that there were this many Valiant fans still around. Very cool! I will definitely be checking back in. Thanks everyone!

PS-yeah, that's a line from the One Ring. Got the whole thing on both arms. It's an addiction.

Welcome !!!

Cool, I knew that had to be what it was. I'm a huge LOTR fan myself.

Welcome aboard.

How cool is this guy? When he found out that diamond wasn't carrying it...he ordered up from amazon for us. (this was prior to my e-mail about valiant direct)...I can't say enough good stuff about his store...there is finally an LCS for me to go to on a regular basis...the wife is gonna hate it...

...specially when the kids get into it.

Thanks again Neil.

Hey, I'm a collector too. I try to give people the service I would like to get. I appreciate the kind words. Helping people get the books they want and angering wives are numbers one and two on our store "to-do" list.

Nice to see the tattoo guy on the boards. Welcome, it's always nice to hear about LCS owners who don't dismiss VALIANThounds.
