I am abit embarrassed to say, that I never stopped being a fan of Power Rangers, despite I know how ridiculous and cheesy the show was. Power Rangers fans nerds can make even Star Wars geeks look regal and sophisticated xDMy favorite person from the show was always, Lord Zedd the emperor. I've even wanted to cosplay as him too. The memorabilia of him really sucks...all that's out there is this very shoddy looking toy.Anyway, I knew the actor Robert Axelrod who is the voice actor of Lord Zedd, went to cons and such to do autograph signing and Q&A's that I seen on youtube and I really wanted an autograph of him. I was too chickenSheep scared to ask him directly so I went around searching ebay for any autographs which turned up zilch. So finally, I worked up the nerve and sent him an email asking if this was ok and all and I'd pay him for his time yada-yada while telling him how much I appreciated what he did and the hours of enjoyment I got out of him as a kid.To my surprise he answered me back right away thanking me for the nice letter and he'd only ask me 10 dollars which I thought was a generous offer.I decided to go the extra mile,taking these two drawings I did of the char. and had them made up into prints and sent them to him as a surprise gift.<a href=\"http://img21.imageshack.us/i/lordzeddbygenocyber.png/\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/5396/lordzeddbygenocyber.th.png\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img21.imageshack.us/i/lordzeddbygenocyber.jpg/\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/9053/lordzeddbygenocyber.th.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a>So I sent it out to him and after we exchanged a few more words over email,I got this in the mail!<a href=\"http://img217.imageshack.us/i/pics005v.jpg/\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/4450/pics005v.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://img248.imageshack.us/i/pics003c.jpg/\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/3114/pics003c.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a>Along with a little note saying thank you for the pictures. It's awesome getting to meet people you admire. X3
