ACTION FIGURE RESOURCE MAGAZINE TODAY’S TOYS, TOMORROW’S TREASURES Hi there, Produced & published by: Colin Dorman Articles by: Colin Dorman, Alex Shaw Reviews supplied by: Michael Crawford http://www.mwctoys.com Action Figure Resource Website: http://action-figure-resource.com Email: [email protected] Advertising enquiries, please send to the above email address. If you have any question, queries or remarks about any of the articles please contact me. If you are interested in advertising in the AFR magazine or website please contact me for a rate card. This month I have some bad news, and some good news. Over recent months the cost of writing, designing publishing and hosting the FR Magazine and keeping them free of advertising free has been spiraling and has become uneconomical for me to burden alone. In fact I am working two jobs in order to pay for the up keep of these because: it’s my passion, and I believe I provide you with a useful service. As a result, in order to keep the magazine viable I will be introducing a minimal fee BUT to help offset this I have two very important and exciting new projects to tell you about. The first is a new platform for the AFR Magazine which will allow you to view the magazine on ANY device or on the website as well as being able to download a pdf version direct to your mobile, tablet or computer. Also In the coming months the new look magazine will feature new resources such as videos, live links, surveys, competitions etc to make it a truly interactive experience! But that’s not all, because if you wish you can also order a PRINT VERSION! That’s right, now you can order your very own HARDCOPY of your favorite magazine! You can trial the magazine HERE The second project I want to tell you about coming in the New Year is The AFR Supporters Club! What is The AFR Supporters Club?
