Our friend Naji
I often think of Naji.
A very good friend in the forum.
I hope it goes well Naji.

Are there any new Information

he is missed...hopefully he will be back during the winter months!

I feel very sorry at the lack of information with Naji, he was one of my first friends when I joined the old 'Befora' forum with a number of very friendly and helpufull postings. I really do hope he is OK, even if he can no longer be in touch with us, it would be nice to know somehow he is safe.

Naji, we are still thinking of you and hope you are safe and well.

Regards from Kevin the GHOSTHUNTER.

I believe Alex is still in touch with him. I last heard he was buying up all the GI Joe stuff on ebay..

To a degree that is encouraging news, but by the time he gets back on board with us, he's going to be broke, because 'Gi Joe' stuff doesn't come cheap!

Ghosty.

I know, In the early 60's my mum used to work for Eisenmanns the toy wholesaler in city road, They had all of the new GI Joe stuff on blistercards. They had a couple of feet of shelf space to display them and boxes and boxes of stuff under the shelves, almost every night mum would bring home a couple of blisters for me. I can't imagine what they would be worth now but I must have had hundreds of them.

wasnt gi joe called action man in the uk?

Yes it was Dan, but we got a watered-down version and complicated licensing issues meant he had to be called something different than 'Gi Joe'.

Where is he and is he safe ?

I would like to reassure you all about Naji, sadly i have not heard from him since the end of April. He did make some suggestion at that time that he would be back on the forum come the summer. Well as we are now approaching Autumn and still a no show from Naji it doesnt look as though he will be back any time soon. I am comforted in the knowledge that he is still actively buying on Ebay and i assume by that that he is safe and well. I also note from e bay that Naji's collecting tastes have for the moment moved away from Matchbox and perhaps that is the reason that he has decided to remain absent.

I would welcome Naji back with open arms and agree with you all that his presence on this forum is sadly missed.
