Thanks for the input guys. I've made up my mind and will do this. It will take some time to ramp up, but if I do this it should be only a month or so out TOPS. Time to get writing! :)

I just wanted to be sure we were all on the same page. (Not that we mind being associated with Yee or nuthin'.)

I'd enjoy seeing bwtf.com back in any form. Good luck with the project.

Yeah, getting anything going is the hardest part, reviews now on a shared server is the way to go, get that blood pumping again can really be a shot in the arm to get creative juices flowing. You've got a brand name to protect, BWTF has a PR of 4, that's a valuable tool for getting fresh interest in the site, so the longer you've got no content on the page, the more that resource is going to dwindle. Better to have something than to wait.

Good luck Ben, thanks for keeping us in the loop!

Tiny bit of news (and soon I'll be updated the BWTF placeholder page accordingly). I've set the wheels in motion for the "mini" relaunch. This will involve a bit of re-development on a staging server and then transfer to a real, live, active server. Since the holidays are coming, the process will be interrupted until about January, but I expect to go full speed on my plan once the new year kicks in. I'm excited about the launch and I've already begun writing up new material for it as well. :)

Very cool, glad to hear it's on its way. Sounds so very official, I would just kinda stumble in blindly and flip a switch. ;)

Ben posted an update on Friday, he's expecting to have the site up before Toy Fair, which is Feb 15-17.

Nice, it'll be cool to see that up.

Damn, this is one of the first times in a while I'm actually 'excited' for Toyfair. Normally I get linked to stuff and go, "Oh, hey, thasright, Toyfair was this weekend."
