I had been toying with the idea of coming up with themed "goodie packs" that members could spend their hard-earned points on, and the first of these is coming to life.

The theme for the very first RetroDaze Goodie Pack will be... well, RetroDaze. Sort of a celebration of the site's young life and some of the things that are familiar to members. This pack will be FREE - no points will be necessary to have one sent to you. Consider it the "gateway" pack.

Here are a couple of items that will be present in this pack...



Here we have a statuette of Photog Smurf, roughly 10" tall... and a keepsake "ticket" for the first ever viewing in the RetroDaze Public Theater (formerly the Public Domain Theater). This gives you some idea of what to expect in this pack. Both items are professionally made, not pieced together by me using plastic and printer paper

Any thoughts or questions?

I like it. sign me up for one.

sounds good m8. free shipping and all?

Very, very cool. I still have my Dutch and Hamato figures hanging on the wall. Are you still doing the yearbook? It would be cool to compose a booklet that had all the winning articles published in them too.

@Ben: Free means free with me, as you know by now. Shipping and all.

@vkimo: I started work on the Yearbook for 2013, but got sidetracked by a bunch of other junk. So perhaps in its stead, a simple book of memorable or winning articles housed and bound in a nice hardback could serve as a replacement.

Dutch and Hamato figures will also be included with this pack, and one random pack will also contain Xander and Gronk.

I'll definitely want one. I can put it on the shelves behind my desk.

It's be great to have one. Though, I don't think it'd really fit in my home as it is. Ha ha.

@blue: That sounds like my house!

Any idea when these will be ready?

@TDitH: I am waiting for a few other items to arrive in the mail, including the mailer boxes (custom boxes baby!), so it just depends on how quickly they are produced and shipped to me. I would think these could be ready before September. So, this month sometime if everything goes well.

Whoever gets them should post pictures of where they put the stuff from the pack on the site. Just something fun to do.
