I renewed and I'm in the UK. I got the Membership ladder and also picked up the Chicago ALF readily as the result of being a member. Hereafter, if all else fails I wouldn't be disappointed - I'm glad I renewed.

you guys(the ones that complain about membership). are you FREAKIN KIDDING ME! you are spending a whole $20 for it, then they send you a truck thats worth at least $40, sure I will miss that full color catalog, the news letter was OK but now a days the way things are going who really cares about that but the catalog was a keeper. stop complaining about the $20 membership(they give you a free piece for it) and the chance to order the releases that are low production runs(if you get to your computer fast enough). plus all the blow out pieces they just did in march. if you look at it, the membership isn't costing you anything at all. If that $20 is setting you back that much, then maybe you shouldn't be buying these collectibles in the first place. By the way I renewed mine without giving it a thought and did get shut out on the green chicago piece. If code 3 were to go out of business No one lost out on the mebership fee-now did they.

I will not subscribe to the Club again this year. I quit that club in April 2003, after an email from the Toy makers Appentice. I will take my money and go see that movie with Tom Hanks. I believe it's called the "DaVinci Code Three".
