Okay... so lets start off with the basic questions!
What is this thread? This thread is intended for collectors to post pictures of, and discuss a specific character and the various figures that have been released for it.
When is this thread? If it is successful, the weekly character spotlight will be a weekly thread. It will run actively for a week to give everyone a chance to snap a few shots or dig some figures out of storage
Why is this thread? To spur activity in this section of the forums outside of new releases, so taking a hint from the Fandom section i thought why not spotlight a particular character rather than a line... this will allow us to look at all lines and releases old and new and will also let us see some figures that other collectors own that we may not have seen before. This will also let designer vinyls, gashapons, highly articulated, and kits all stand side by side
Who is this thread? Anybody can participate, just post pictures of figures you own. At the end of the week the person that picked for the week will pick someone that contributed to the thread to pick the next weeks spotlight.
How is this thread? At the beginning of each thread make a list of previous selections (See the weekly Kaiju movie in Fandom for reference), make a title consistent with the other threads in the series (eg. Weekly Character Spotlight #X: Monster X) Post pictures of figures you own and any commentary you wish to share on them. Any kaiju is fine for the weekly spotlight (Gamera, Godzilla, Ultra, etc) but the more obscure, the less likely people will be to participate.
Unless there are any objections or if anyone has a suggestion to make this more successful (involving a poll or something) I can start up the first weekly spotlight tonight
