I would think any of us would be happy to help promote the forum. The cards that you guys are considering could possibly be distributed with the papers handed out at registration.

Yeh, sounds good, thanks for the offer.

I think handing out flyers is a good idea and I don't see why it could not promote both the VBD and Moyboyz. But going by my own experience I find that A4 or A6 tend to get lost but a business card size can fit into a wallet or pocket and is more likely to make it home with you. I will wait until I get the ok from Mick and I will get some printed up and forward them to either Jim, Kay, Greg or Bill.

Thank you Nick, I am sure Mick will be OK with all this, so lets keep our fingers crossed for more members for both forums on the back of the event during this Year.

I'm not sure if all of Ghosty's words will fit onto a business card without the words getting to small for reading?

But no matter how big or small the promotional paper items get, or which words they show - I would gladly take some of them, Nick (or let them be printed on my own).
I attend a quite a few toy events this year, so I would be able to spread the word about VBD and MOYBOYZ (MECA, Albuquerque Gathering, Leipzig, and some smaller local toy shows).

Sounds Great!! I will be glad to help assure that we get the flyers/cards distributed during the Matchbox International Gathering Registration as well as making them available during the event. We normally have a table at registration where everyone can view them and take one.
Let me know if you need ANY help with getting them to the distribution stage.................
