Hi Ahmad!

I do believe that what you are seeing may be the birth of Armorama's next "satellite" site, just like the newly formed Model Shipwrights Scale Modeling Magazine, for us ship modelers, but this time, for the figures side of Armorama...I'd stick with using armorama.com to enter the main site for now, as in the past, I've noticed that when Jim S. is making any adjustments to the site, we are re-directed to modelgeek.com while the adjustments are being made...

Way, way back when we first started the site, a figure modeling site called Historical Figures (or something like that) went under and Jim welcomed them into the Armorama fold by adding a figure category.

This looks like Jim was using the Model Geek mirror site to test out a new figure modeling site that he will create.

Very observant!

Model Geek is going to be the general modeling "parent site" for all things not covered by another modeling site in the KitMaker Network. So eventually you will being seeing this evolve....

After seeing the flow-chart, I finally understand how things are going to shape up. Good stuff.
