Hi,
I'm Rick Sollers from R&S Custom Toys. I've been a collector of 12" action figures since 1989 and have a nice collection of vintage GI Joes, Captain Action, Marx, Big Jim and Mego figures from my childhood.
I've met tons of nice collectors over the years; online and at conventions. I've attended almost all GI Joe conventions since 1998, several Weekend of Heroes conventions and a couple Dragon conventions. I've had fun at all and met other collectors.
I formed the San Antonio Chapter of the GI Joe collectors club back in 1999 and we've being going strong ever since. We have 50+ members on our email list and about 5-10 attend our monthly meetings.
In 2003 I opened R&S Custom Toys and turned my hobby into a part time business. I've been on ebay for a while now and have a webstore also.
Always interested in meeting new collectors. If you would like some advice on collecting, send me an email, I have an outline for a class I gave at the International Professional Modelers Association convention in San Antonio. The class was about collecting military action figures.
