Ah, the question I've often wondered but neglected to ask for fear of being rude...

Rufus, what do they pay you at work?

:-P
One billion dollars.
Nice! I need to do what you're doing!
Your seriously don't want to know :P

Sweet score, that one is awesome. I don't care what the average opinion of Mr Twist is, I think the character kicks *SQUEE*! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

I was just talking to my pal Mike Rooth about these cards last night. He has done a ton of work for Rittenhouse in the past but wasn't available to work on the Valiant set. He's pretty bummed about it.
Very nice!!!! :thumb:

So, I just noticed the little Tapatalk logo on your picture Rufus, and then I checked my Tapatalk app. You just changed my life! I had no idea you could just attach a picture natively in Tapatalk. I'd been taking a picture, uploading to Photobucket, and then copying the link into Tapatalk. I feel like a total moron now.

I don't often upload pictures, but when I do, I upload with Tapatalk.

:D

Seriously though, I speak the truth. Tapatalk is awesome and I hate trolling boards that aren't Tapatalk compatible.

Unfortunatly the two big GI Joe boards (Hiss Tank and YoJoe) aren't Tapatalk compatible. :?

Tapatalk is the reason I'm able to read and post so much. It is awesome. I cry when a board I want to interact with isn't compatible. Especially since my phone's browser sucks. I mostly post on here and XDA, so I'm good. I think it should be a law that forums are compatible.

Depluto introduced me to tapatalk at SDCC. I couldn't figure out how he was posting pictures so quickly. I still find using an internet browser easier to read the site, but for pictures it's the way to go.

At least you're not alone in your moronitity. :thumb:

The bad thing with me is that I've been using Tapatalk for over a year, and I actually installed and use another app to post pictures via Tapatalk. I had no idea Tapatalk would host images for you! It's right there in the menu when you post. facepalm

These cards are amazing.
So tempting to buy a pack.
All the cards have been great.

Like the Armstrong.
Cannot believe the original sketches and colours on such a small space.
Usually things are scaled down.
Their was one Phantom artist who produces artwork in minture and it was enlarged but I can not recall who.

So how is going to ask justice41 first to work on a board project?
I wish their was a Spinal Tap comic, and I had a copy CGC graded at 11.

Totally off topic. What version of Tapatalk do people use?
