Collector Interview 20 for TFSource - Richard "IronicHide" Brown

[Maz]

At Christmas, we may have occasionally succumbed to consumerism, materialism and buying-copious-amounts-of-Transformerism. With our Source Blog Collector Interviews we often succumb to the allure of immensely large and attractive Transformers collections from well-known collectors, meticulously maintained and put together with the most painstaking dedication at great expense and sacrifice. That, however, does not represent the entire fandom just as those traits do not fully represent Christmas. With the greatest respect to our diverse and unforgettable interviewees, and Richard Brown’s modest collection, please prepare yourself for possibly the most engaging Source Interview thus far with someone who may seem aloof about collecting toys, but is very serious and gifted in accidentally bringing together UK community members for what will be known down the eons as “PubCon”, as well as being “one-third responsible” for the amazing upcoming “An American Way Of Death” TF Noir.

Maz, I recommend talking to Valkyrie_76 (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/member.php?u=82) (travels to HK, SG and Japan every year) or Kup (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/member.php?u=24), they are both good guys, whom I know personally.

Yes, Griffin for sure, but time is an issue cos he is often so so busy.

Btw, on the interview. I like this guy. A guy who collects what he wants and who does not conform to typical collector type behavior - takes a lot of courage and self belief, I respect that.
