If you dont know what I'm talking about then you probably dont remember the place.
AFR( Action Figure Resource) was WF before Jack so graciously saved us all. I remember getting online all day then seein a post that the site was shut down or something. Well, panic mode set in so, I sent out some emails and finally got in contact with some former board members after a few days and got a link to WF...the rest is history. And my how it's grown. Wrestleworld was a great community much like WF, but, was never quite this big. I'll be forever grateful to Jack Specific for saving us all on that fateful day ;D
thoughts?

I was on some other forum and somebody posted a link to WF saying it was the new hangout for all of us displaced AFR guys.

By the time it closed I had lost interest in most wrestling related stuff, so the site itself closing didn't have a huge impact on me. I did miss the message board though. I still wonder what happened to Frost, Shorty, Downfall, and the lame DarkAngel/juggalo/rapper kid.

I believe I would have hit the panic button my my keyboard if there was one. But I talked to Jack & he gave me the link for here.

I think it barely crossed my mind. I think I first wanted to know where I'd get my figure news from...But then came WF.

I could be wrong because I dont remember what the site looked like but the name sounded familiar and while I wasnt a member I believe I browsed it a few times before getting out of collecting

I was pretty dissapointed...THEGR81 was just starting to make a name for himself by picking fights with WOJC.
It took Hollywood Asia like 6 months to tell me about this place, or else I would have been here since the beginning.

I was fairly disappointed. I already had my own forum started up, RTC12 Inc, and it became a new hangout for some of the AFR dudes. Then WF opened, and the rest is history.
I miss AFR. I miss Gooker, FROST, and other dudes.

Whatever happened to WOJC?
Does anyone remember Downfall customs? Or Tinyman? Or the infamous Rock-Munkay?
Whatever happened to that website The Figurezone?
I was xX Project Rich Xx and the dablazer13 over at AFR.
Good times...

Downfall was a pretty cool guy, I remember when someone bought some of his customs and then screwed with them and tried to say that he doctored photos to make his stuff look better. Something like that, it's kind of blurry but was pretty funny at the time.
I don't think Rock Munkay was a real person, it had to be a joke.
I don't remember a whole lot about figure-zone, other than the owner being a douche and them hiring a 9 year old as a reporter, JC Money or something.
