Do you not see the possible correlation here? This is summer. It's a lull in the news. You're not going to see news threads because there is no news to report. It will pick up again in the winter.

That said, this is one of the best toy collector forums I've found. My old favorite, Sir Steve's Guide, unfortunately has died down a lot in the Marvel discussion. But this forum is way better than some where people treat collecting the same way they'd discuss politics. AKA, cutthroat. I LIKE the fact that there's fluff. I like that people make wishlist threads. I like that people post pictures of their collections and generally act like a bunch of man/women children fully aware of the fact that we're all collecting childrens toys.

I also like that fact that there's far fewer "I wish they'd make X" posts here that ignore all the recently announced (or released) figures. Those always bugged me. But that's just me, I wanted to throw a pet peeve into the complaint thread.
