- Jul 27, 2005Hey Everybody!
I had this crazy idea today and it's suddenly taken flight. I don't know how many of you have heard of "Flat Stanley", but this is basically what it is. Check out this link and at least read the explanation in the first picture:

One of my friends did this flat person project as part of a General Hospital fan club, and my friends and I are thinking that it would be kind of fun to do a "Flat Rangers" thing.
Basically, what we're doing is making a "flat person" of each of the 6 rangers, and then taking them everywhere we go, and taking all kinds of strange pictures. Basically, what my friend did for the General Hospital flat dolls, was take a picture of Becky Herbst and Rick Hearst that she had, cut the head off and glued it on a stick body that was made of tag board. Then she dressed them up like paper dolls and each soap opera related event she went to, they went too, and she took random pictures of them. Some examples were me holding flat Becky at the ABC Soaps Fun In The Sun Tour in Los Angeles, or Super Soap Weekend at Disney World, with Mickey Mouse having "Flat Becky" half way down his shirt, or Rick Heast kissing "Flat Becky" or Becky Herbst smiling with "Flat Rick". It was just completely random. Once she had all the pictures of her "flat people", my friend put them all together in a scrapbook and gave it to the actor who's head she used, and they loved it! It's been a pretty huge thing for the participating fan clubs. :-)
Basically, here's what we are going to be doing. My friends and I are each taking possession of a "flat person". There will be one doll for each of the original rangers. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to take your turn with the doll, you can put your name in line for just one of the dolls, or for all 6. However, each person will only be in possession of one flat doll at a time. Each person on the list of participants will have one week with each doll (which ever dolls they choose to participate with), and your job is to take the flat person around your town and take random pictures of it with your friends, school, town, etc. Be creative and see what you can come up with. You may dress the doll up and do whatever you would like with it, as long as NO DAMAGE is caused to the doll itself. Some ideas that have been done can be found here:

You will have one week to enjoy your flat person before it must then be returned to the doll's keeper before being sent on to the next participant. All the pictures you choose to take will then be sent to either myself or Margie to be put into the scrapbook for that doll. Again, you get 1 week per doll.
The only catch to this project is that if you would like to participate and are attending any kind of Power Ranger affiliated convention, anything where any of the former rangers, etc. will be, be sure to let us know the date when you sign up and which doll you would like to have with you for that event, and Margie and I will be sure you get that certain doll for that day. If it means we have to cut somebody's week short to get you the doll, then we will do it, and then return the doll to the previous person upon completion. For instance, I will be attending Johnny Yong Bosh's band "EyeShine"s concert in a few weeks. Should I choose to take a flat doll with me, I will be sure to have that specific doll for that event. The scheduling for this is going to be very tricky, so please be sure to send me the name, date and times of event you would like a doll for, as well as which doll you would like, when you send me your participation information.
To participate in this project, Project: Flat Rangers Go On Vacation, I need the following information from you, ASAP! I need your First & Last name, Mailing address, email address and a phone number in which I can reach you should I need to get a doll back for a specific event, etc., as well as each doll you would like to visit you; Kimberly, Jason, Tommy, Billy, Zack or Trini. You can either send myself the information at PrincessKimberly@... or send it to Margie at Nicksgirl333@...
We will be doing this project for the next year and a half, and take all the pictures to put into a scrapbook, that will then be given to the actor portraying that ranger when we attend Morphicon in June of 2006. Everyone is more than welcome to participate in this project, and flat doll pictures may be submitted to both Margie and myself via email, or snail mail. It is up to you.
Again, to participate in Project: Flat Rangers Go On Vacation, I need the following information from you, ASAP! I need your First & Last name, Mailing address, email address and a phone number in which I can reach you should I need to get a doll back for a specific event, etc., as well as each doll you would like to visit you; Kimberly, Jason, Tommy, Billy, Zack or Trini. You can either send myself the information at PrincessKimberly@... or send it to Margie at Nicksgirl333@... The order in which I receive your information, is the order in which you will be listed for visit from the dolls.
If anybody has any questions or ideas or anything at all, feel free to contact either Margie or myself.
Margie: Nicksgirl333@...
Kimberly: PrincessKimberly@...
We hope you will all participate and are looking forward to a very fun project! :-)
Sincerely,
*~*Margie & Kimberly*~*
