One of my favorite things about FCB is the community, so it was just natural that the old Collectors Spotlight type threads were always my favorite reads. As I was reading another one of [MENTION=7453]mouschi[/MENTION] 's posts, I was lamenting on how nice it was to get into the mind of a fellow collector, not to compare, not to critique, but solely to enjoy. I was thinking about bringing back these old Collector's Spotlight type threads in some degree, maybe getting other collectors to share their origin, background, passion, ups-and-downs, and behind-the-scenes information that we all can relate to in some degree. For reference, here are some awesome, old Collectors Spotlights that [MENTION=3743]AmishDave[/MENTION] did a few years back. Feel free to check these out!:

Also, [MENTION=1866]muskiesfan[/MENTION] did a slew of Collectors Showcase threads a long time ago, early FCB, but I cannot see how to link to those. Maybe someone can help me out? I believe they were part of a blog that is no longer available.
