Post Your Latest Gi Joe Booty!!!

[Sonneilon]

I thought I'd start this just for the fun of it. This is a chance to tell the world (ok, the crew at the JD) what the latest stuff is you received, bought, traded, or fell on your head from the sky!

Go ahead and shoot.

[Sonneilon]

You guys might remember I was selling 30 SW Clone Troopers and while the 1st buyer didn't quite work out, the 2nd buyer showed me the WONDERS of trading. So for 24 plain Clone Troopers, 2 Commander Blys, and 4 Red Commanders (w/ Mace Windu, Pilot ObiWan and Count Dorku), I received:

1x Spy Troops Tunnel Rat
1x Nite Force Dart
10x VvV Viper (purple/red)
10x Spy Troops NeoViper (blue)
1x S6 Snake Eyes w/ Ninja Armor

That's my latest haul at this time.

[Sephron13]

Well, I found the newest Commando wave FINALLY!

Grand Slam and Frontal Assault Duke are now mine, as of last Friday. I put the other 4 on layaway and will pick them up shortly. Both of the figures I got are awesome! I REALLY like Grand Slam and Duke is really great, also.

[ender098]

I got a Double Clutch from ebay (yeah, after I just got done preaching about the EVILS of EBAY). His left forearm was on backward, so I had to pop the pin out and switch it, but hey, no biggy!

Ain't much but with no sign of wave 4 and the 25th anny stuff not being out until September, stuff is gonna be SLOW!!!


Oh!Oh!oh! and the other day I got the Terminator 2 Bio Flesh regenerator (to use as part of Mindbenders Lab!)

[Sonneilon]

Psssssst, Frank. 25th stuff should be June.

[ender098]

I thought they said the 25th stuff was going to coincide with the convention in September?

[Jay]

[QUOTE=ender098]Oh!Oh!oh! and the other day I got the Terminator 2 Bio Flesh regenerator (to use as part of Mindbenders Lab!)[/QUOTE]
Oh geez, I used to have that! I think my mom gave it away during a cleanup... Unless it's deep in the storage room, and I'm not willing to search through that mess.

[Sonneilon]

Nope, not at all Frank. Hasbro said a SUMMER release and Justin got word at Toyfair that it should be May/June/July. The last 15 (single carded) will probably see light in September but it won't coincide w/ the Con.

[General Scarlett]

I got a care package of stuff from my pimp, errr ummm I mean Frank. That's my latest 'booty'......

[Jay]

I'm waiting on a truckload of booty including an incomplete Shadowloo HQ (92 HQ repaint from the Street Fighter movie line), 97 Storm Shadow, a pair of Tele-Vipers and a Quarrel figure, to name a few items... but unfortunately none of them have shown up yet. :(

[General Scarlett]

Did you get your stuff from Frank too??? He's got the pipeline covered on TONS of shat......... ;)

[Jay]

No, I got that stuff from various people. Quarrel comes from ebay (a bargain at 30$ shipped), Storm Shadow's from GIJoeHQ, etc.

Never dealt with Frank. I've never seen him post a list of stuff he's got for sale or trade.

[General Scarlett]

Drop him a PM and let him know what you need....he's loaded up the ying yang with stuff!!! And if he doesn't have it, he might be able to get it........
And he's REALLY cool about helping people out....... :cool:

[NemesisEnforcerFan]

[bluestalker88]

well I got s6 grand slam & FA duke the other day, and s6 cobra firefly came in today from killertoys.

I recently traded with adamantNEO over on joebattlelines a s6 arctic snake eyes and white timber for a box full of weapons. so thats my haul for now :p ......

Nick

[LordRaven]

I bought 3 Hiss tanks off the G-Unit (aka Sonne) and I loves em. Might be doin some mods to em soon. Look out for it. The gentleman also threw in some sweet extras for my birthday. Wooty.

[G.I.*Jock]

Ooh nice idea for a thread!

I'm waiting for 25 Viper Pit Vipers and 8 of the original 13 Joe's. Leaving me with Just Scarlett and Grand Slam to complete my 82 line up.

I'm going to stop army building for the moment in a bid to buy the 30 or so figures I need to complete the 82-94 line up. If I hadn't spent so much on army builders I'd have completed the first run of Joe's about two years ago! :eek:

But with all this, I got a lot to sell too!

MIB sealed mail away HISS tank with sticker variant anyone?

Also got a MIB Action Force Z Force Rapid Fire Motorcycle with a sealed Quarrel to sell! :p

Lot's of figures to sell too, but the problem is finding time and space to sort everything out... Argh!!!

[Fantom]

I received a lot of 30 carded vintage figures for a real good price. I picked a few out to keep and am selling the rest off to make my money back and then some. Here are a few of the figures I received:

89 Night Viper carded
89 HEAT Viper carded
90 Gnawgahyde carded
87 Big Boa carded
90 Backbalst carded
88 Toxo Viper carded
91 Snow Serpent carded

...just to name a few.

[Sonneilon]

OMG. THOSE are some nice scores. Were they in good/mint shape?

[Jay]

Well, I just got one of the bigger booties I was anticipating. Dogfight, v1 Wild Weasel, a pair of v1 Night Creepers, a v2 Snow Serpent, Blizzard's backpack, Tunnel Rat's backpack and satchel charge and Falcon's knife, as well as a very incomplete Shadowloo HQ playset (a purple/black/grey repaint of the 92 GIJoe headquarters)... Unfortunately a lot of important parts are broken, looks like I'll have to look for some HQ replacement parts.. :(

[Fantom]

Most were in near mint condition with very minor card ware. Others that I did not list had kinda rough cards or places where the bubbles were coming detached. I am not generally a Mint on Card collector but I figured with this lot I could add a few to my collection and sell the rest to get myself some basically free MOC figures.

[Jay]

Well, looks like my first loot wasn't all! I got my Quarrel figure today as well! :)
Now, if only my 97 Storm Shadow, Tele-Vipers and Convention Lady Jaye could get here.... :(

Nice! That Firefly does look pretty cool. :)

Got these guys in last night:

http://www.kungphu.com/me/images/gijoe/new_claws.jpg

Pretty much bought them for their weapons; I'm using one as some kind of toxic waste dispenser for my Toxo-Viper. The backpack on the right was thrown in as an extra; the missiles are removable, and I freaking love that stuff. :D

[Sephron13]

Well, since picking up Grand Slam and FA Duke last week, I got Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes, completing my '07 Wave 1 Commando quest. I will be picking up the new Long Range and Kamakura this week. My stupid Target still hasn't dropped the price of Paratrooper Duke and that is the only figure I don't have that I want (i'll NEVER get Demo Tunnel Rat or Glider Kamakura...EVER!). Soon perhaps.

http://www.kungphu.com/me/images/gijoe/steel_water_normal.jpg

These guys came in today! Six Rooks, three Checkpoints, and three Heavy Water...s.

Man, I love the new Steel Brigade! I'm pretty sure this is now the most I have of any set of figures (about 15 Rook/Checkpoints -- was one more until one was dismembered in the name of customs -- and 2 Red Zones), minus Sand Vipers. :D

[LordRaven]

Can't wait to see what ya sent me Homie

[Jay]

A whole bunch of booty arrived today, three different packages. First, a 93 Roadblock whose head and arms I needed to make my custom RB (who I'll finish when I'm less exhausted), a 03 Convention Lady Jaye (still mint in baggie!) and a 97 Storm Shadow, which is my ideal Storm Shadow. Now I'm just waiting on three more packages to arrive. :D

Wow! Where did you pick up those Rooks? I need to get me some of those!

[General Scarlett]

WOW Phu!!!! :eek: Those are freakin' sweet!!!

[phu]

There's a guy on eBay who sold them to me; he's called roshaver, and his store is here:

34th Fighting Collectibles (http://stores.ebay.com/34th-Fighting-Collectibles_GI-Joe-3-3-4-Inch-Figures_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZQ2d1QQfsubZ3QQftidZ2QQtZkm)

I bought a few from him through his auctions, then the latest nine he sold me through email. He's a very decent guy, the figures are in top-notch condition, and I recommend him 100%. :)

[Ion]

OK, here's my latest stuff:

Taurus - 100% complete
Zarana - 100% comp.
Serpentor - w/o cape, otherwise complete

and some small, but important stuff:

Nemesis' tentacles, Lifeline's medibag, Backblast's bandolier, Duke's (v1) helmet, Big Boa's gloves and punching bag and finally CLAW's small missile.

Not much, though OK for me. I got it for about $30

[Slow_Burn]

A buddy of mine hooked me up with an old Conquest X-30. It's a little faded, and missing most of the detachable parts, but it isnt in too bad shape. Just needs a little love.

If anyone knows a website or something that makes replica parts for old Joe vehicles, hook a brother up. :D

I just took delivery of 4 Venom Cycle Vipers (olive drab/red vests) and 3 of the Cobra Dreadheads from my regular eBay supplier, plus my Operation MOTH Pacific Theater set finally arrived after three weeks (so much for airmail). The Chuckles is so-so, but the Shipwreck really rocks.

[ToneGunsRevisited]

It was a long time since I had something G.I. Joe related "new" in my hands. Today I got the engines of the Skyhawk that mine was missing for 5 bucks including shipping and a HISS I cockpit cover. I was hunting them around 1 year. :D

[Jay]

Well, yesterday I got the windshield wiper for my Devastator and today I got a Star Wars snow rebel (whose head went on my White-Out figure), a Night Creeper Leader, a Battle Corps Bazooka and a vintage Action Force Black Major.

Waiting on two packages now...

[nando]

Well that was sort of a waste of bandwidth, couldn't you have just told us?

Either way, nice score on some good RAHC figures, as well as that Condor. That one must've cost you a buttload of money.

[lehsreh]

[COLOR=Red]mmm, you could shorten that by about 300 ins and it would be perfect. great buy though.[/COLOR]

[General Scarlett]

I've won, but not yet paid for and recieved the Dino Hunters figures. (yeah, I know! After all my whining about how GI Joe in the 90's jumped onto the bandwagon for every cash cow, here I am buying the GI Joe meets Jurrasic Park Playset!)

;)

[General Scarlett]

Well you know Frank, instead of working 'immediately' on the next dio project............you could do some set up and snap some pics for the photos page.................just a thought is all............................... ;) :)

[Blowtorch]

Well my booty wasn't Joe related, but I had fun yesterday anyway. I took my two younger kids with for some action figure shopping. I got them two lego sets since they both like playing with. One was Star Wars, the other was a diver set. They were cool. My stuff was two of the Order 66 sets. One had Darth Vader and Commander Bow the other was Obi-Wan and AT-RT Driver. Then I had a $5 discount card from KB toys so I ended up getting a 5th Fleet Security and a Galactic Marine. Last weekend I took my older ones with me and ended up getting a Utapau Clone Trooper, General Veers, R5-J2 and a Clone Trooper Sgt. Of course to even that day out I had to go clothes shopping the rest of the day. :o
Still a good time had by all.

[maxtype]

I just got some 12inch figures I preordered :John Wayne as a 'Green Beret',Toy soldier's Bounty Hunter Babe-who just HAPPENS to look like 'Domino' from the movie,and the new 'Perfect Body' girls fromm bbi..........so I'm having fun!!! :D

[Fisher]

I just won issues 25, 27, 28, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, & 97 of the original Marvel run of G.I. Joe for $17.27 on ebay. I love comic lots.

[General Scarlett]

HOT DAMN Fisher!!!! WAY TA GO!!!!!!!!!!! ENJOY!!!!!!!

[Fisher]

now i just gotta get the front end and rear end of the run, haha.

But yeah, I foresee hours of reading enjoyment in the coming days...

[General Scarlett]

Oh hell yes!!! And if you ever get the opportunity, pick up the 'Special Missions' run as well..................... :cool:


Damn, now I'm going to have to go downstairs and haul out my comics!!!! :p

[Fisher]

I'm actually winning an entire run of special missions and the European missions 1-14 as we type...

[General Scarlett]

Got my fingers crossed for you buddy.............good luck!!

[Sonneilon]

Shoot Fisher, I coulda sold ya a bunch of those issues a few months ago. I sold all my comics to a used book store, tho I kept a WildCATs TPB (the 1st 4 issues), Marvel GI Joe TPB (1, 2, 4?), and a Wetworks database.

Now, while this is way off-topic yet kinda ON-topic, I'm working at Daiso. Some of you might know it as the Japanese 100Y store or Coin Store. In the US, everything starts at $1.50 and well... I picked up a bunch of funky terra-cotta wannabe samurai/chinese warrior statues and some bamboo fencing for dio purposes. I'll probably buy 2 more packs of the statues (I bought 1 full set (5 figures) and 3 singles) and more bamboo if we get them in. I'll eventually take a picture.

And for the record, there is a TON of dio stuff there. If you wanted to build, ahem, a dollhouse, we have funky 'furniture' that should work. I was setting out, today, dollhouse chairs, cabinets and tables. I just found some neat colored glass tiles that I'm sure I can make something out of...

[Sonneilon]

oh yeah... off-topic. Fisher, I ran into a TPB of Special MIssions. NOt sure what issues, never actually took it out of the bag. I ended up giving it as a Secret Santa present to a gal on the JBL. So if you are a total completist, there is a TPB of several Special Mission stories. Just FYI.

I'd love to get some more goodies!

That's pretty cool Son. I was thinking of using bonsai trees in a future dio story. Just wasn't sure how too scale they would be.

[Sonneilon]

If I'm doing my math right, a set of figures (5 figures: 3 standing, 1 kneeling, 1 horse) would be about $10 after tax. However, these things aren't light and would probably cost around $10 to ship, even w/o the neat box they come in. They come already wrapped, much like an Asian Pear.

As for furniture, it's made for a country doll house and each piece is $1.50 or $2.00. I don't think the boss would let me take pictures... Hmmmmm...

Frank, I don't know if you are anywhere near Daly City but here's the only Cali address...

For further information...

Daiso (http://www.daiso-sangyo.co.jp/english/about/)

In Japan, 100 yen shops, or one-coin shops, similar to dollar stores in the United States and pound shops in the U.K., are commonly known as "hyakkin". Daiso is a major player in the 100 yen shop industry - so much so that its name has become synonymous with "hyakkin".

100 yen shops are enhancing their status in the retail industry to rank alongside department stores, supermarkets and convenience stores.

Through a wide selection of products ranging from miscellaneous daily goods to food, cosmetics, home décor and traditional Japanese arts and crafts, together with amazingly low prices, Daiso endeavours to bring pleasure and satisfaction to its customers.

With a broad customer base that extends from children to the elderly, the 100 yen shop industry has grown to occupy an indispensable place in the lives of the Japanese public. Daiso products can be found everywhere - in homes, workplaces and shops.


In the early days, there was concern surrounding the quality and stable supply of products that were sold at a flat price, but customers’ perspective changed as a result of the efforts of Hirotake Yano, Daiso’s founder and current president, to improve product quality, leading to Daiso’s growth into the largest 100 yen chain store in the country.

By winning the trust of department stores and other major retailers, and hence the confidence of customers, we have grown to occupy an indispensable place in people’s lives. Daiso is far and away the leader in the industry and its name has become synonymous with the 100 yen shop.

Daiso has expanded its product lines and number of shops on such a scale that it can no longer be categorized solely as a 100 yen shop. It is now so well established as part of everyday life that it has become the destination of choice for the purchase of daily commodities. Our aim is to develop and sell products which are of true value to our customers by focusing on originality and quality.

In the year ended March 2005, Daiso sales exceeded 320 billion yen and our network of shops across Japan numbered over 2,400. The number of shops is growing at a rate of 20 to 30 shops a month and our overseas network is also increasing at a rapid pace.

We aim to continue expanding our network around the world in our endeavour to bring a touch of colour and pleasure to customers’ lives.

I received this morning a Freefall that came from my friend Fisher!!!

[G.I.*Jock]

At long last... I have added a mint complete, displayed only, Action Force Moondancer to my collection... Now to get me a Dolphin! Good times!

Dave :D

[Fisher]

Glad to help out Luis! Now take some pics of Freefall in action!

Some of the more notable figs are the Walmart exclusive Iron Grenadier and Neo Viper, as well as 2 versions of snake eyes, Ripper, Zarana, the grey Neo Viper that came with the Ringneck, the BAT APC with 3 BATS, Cobra Adder, Widescope, Spy Troops Flint, Sand-Viper, Alpine, Jinx, Tele-Viper, Dr. Mindbender and many more. All for $45. All the pics of the new sculp figs that get posted here have won me over and I have been wanting to get ahold of a few.

[ender098]

[SIZE=1]Finally!!![/SIZE]

Finished my Stars and stripes Set! Finally got the Scarlett that finishes my set. Sad day, though. Other than Pimp Daddy Destro, she was the last figure I "needed" to complete my collection. (I know I will never get PDD!)

Which I am really pleased with. :D

[Lohengrin]

Okay Rich, you dragged me here, whats all the fuss about? *looks around* Oh, I see, hi guys, don't mind me, I'm harmless :) It's been a while since I have done any customizing (maybe I'll take some pics of my old customs), but as far as finds are concerned, I found a very nice MOC Action Force Tele-Viper a few weeks ago for a good price.

[ew3smiley1996]

I feel so left out! I haven't been able to buy toys for myself in a long time! but for none Joe related I did recently buy the forces of valor M109 Howitzer die cast toy! Sorry its what i use in the National Guard!!!!! I am hoping I can get some of the 25th Anniversary figures.

Nice to see you here!

You don't have to worry about a lack of customs for this site -- I only have one custom figure I've actually finished painting and that was about 6-7 years ago...! The main focus here is shots of our toys in action, either for one-off (or short series of) pics or to tell more elaborate photo-stories. Check the archives, there's some stunning work on display! And if you get inspired to set up some figures and get a few snaps of your own, the more the merrier!

[maxtype]

Lots of stuff today..............I got my Cy-Girls 'Destiny' and (thanks to Frank!!! You rock!!!) Agent Faces and Claymore!!! :D

[ender098]

The Moth III set I ordered through him, as well as DTC Bludd, Lowlight and Spirit, Mercer V1, Bat v1 who needs a lil TLC, Dragonsky, Gristle, Burnout, a few random heads for my customs to make my vipers more personable, and a special item I don't want to give away, cause I have BIG plans for it. You'll all see soon!

I got a Fischer-Price TV van and FINALLY! A Hurricane! NO missiles, though! :(

But it DID come with a Vapor figure...I wish I had 10 of these!!!

[Stormer]

With some assistance from Frank - thanks, man! - today I received a couple of large boxes from Hasbro's online store. So my Joe ranks are now bolstered by a RHINO and ROCC with personnel increased by comic packs #9 and #75 (only missing #26 now...). For those who know my "Class Reunion" shots on Flickr, expect to see 2005 shortly...

The annoying thing was, I placed this order BEFORE the Joe clearance sale just using a 25% discount & free shipping code. The upside was, I also included 7 Marvel figures in the order (would've been 9 but they were out of She-Hulk and Lord Thor) so at least the discount applied to them and they didn't proceed to drop in price right after!

[tunnelrat88]

Although I don't have it yet, I just sent out the money order for the Terrordrome I just won on E-Bay. I'm so pumped to finally have one after being outbid on so many over the years. Expect a lot of picture when it finally come in. Here's the link for it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250136776675&ssPageName=Action:MPS

[ender098]

Got my goodies....
1 ROCC
2 Rhinos
3 Night Ops Humvees
2 DTC Hiss tanks...

:) Also got a 9 CORPS figures for MErcs and civilians.

[phu]

In the mail on Friday (from the uber-sale at Hasbro):

2 ROCCs
2 RHINOs
4 SAW Vipers (the newish ones)
2 Medi-vipers
2 Barrel Rolls
2 Footloose
2 Flint/Hawk/Tunnel Rat 3-packs

The RHINO turned out a lot cooler than I thought it'd be; the ROCC was what I really wanted. I wasn't too impressed with it until I manned it with a full complement, after which it's pretty excellent:

http://www.kungphu.com/me/images/gijoe/rocc_desk.jpg

Hasbro screwed up the order and left out the BAT 6-pack; I talked to customer service and they're sending it out (well, hopefully that, otherwise it'll be one of their ominous 'equal or lesser value' replacements).

Still a great haul, all for $85 shipped. :)

And I recieved my email confirmation..........my second order has shipped!!! :eek:


I'm like a kid at Christmas!!! Now I've got to pull myself away to go to the movies!!! :)

[Urban Saboteur]

I did get confirmation from my contact stateside. He just scored me a ROCC from HTS as they don't ship to me :(
He's also getting me the 25th Anniversary figures when he can get them. This is so cool. I can't wait to get some of these things in the post!

Congrats to Stormer for getting his goodies.. to Tunnelrat88 for his Terrordrome.. Man I am yet to get one of those and to G.S for her goodies too!
G.S I'm with you on the vehicles they are good but I passed on the figures. ;)

Big congrats to Phu for getting those two roccs and two rhinos :eek:

Finally well done to Frank for getting a hurricane (another vehicle I dont yet have) and for getting his DTC goodies as well. Man 3 Hum Vee's quite a motor pool :cool:

Well,on the 3rd I got my 25th Anni Joe & Cobra 5 Packs and my Perfect Body 1.5 12" Female action Figures! :D

I know some aren't happy with the 25ths......but I'm thrilled! Definitely 4 out of 5!

My friend Stephanie and I are still working on our plan for 12" customs of ARAH women.......I think they'll be awesome! :p

[bartus]

Hi guys!

Yesterday my BIG box from HTS arrived... Xmas in July :)

- 1 ROCC
- 1 additional night ops humvee
- 1 additional hiss tank
- 2 comic packs #76
- 2 Footloose
- 2 Range Vipers
- 1 Figure case Wave 2
- 3 Barrel Roll

The only figs I didn't had before were the ROCC and the comic packs #76. I think the ROCC looks very cool, but I would have included an additional turret and some additional weapons. Comic pack #76 is ok, I will use the additional one for customs.

With my 5 Barrel Rolls, I did some head exchanges and posted my 2nd pic. Hope you like it :)

Also, last weekend I got 2 ATV packs from PTE and 1 Star Wars Death Star Trooper.

Bartus.

General Scarlett,

both boxed 25th anniversery sets.

They didn't have any single packs and I was lucky they only had 1 Cobra Anniversery set left. They had 3 Gijoe sets.

[Captain Max]

This is my day for toys! :D

I FINALLY got my 8" Soldier set Gung-Ho/Inferno/Iron Grenadier from the Collectors Club,Got a package from Old Joes Infirmary:Cy Girl 'Cutey Honey'( an anime girl,see my Avatar),and some 1/6 scale guns and stuff for my custom 1/6 Baroness....and at Wal*Mart buying groceries I found this-

a 1/18 scale Canadian CF-104 Starfighter "Tiger Meet"! :D

And yes-an ARAH Joe figure will fit in the 'pit! :p

[lehsreh]

[COLOR=Red]went back to the flea market and got a bazooka, airtight, recondo, wildbill and tollbooth all version 1. didnt know the new 25th had hit the stores yet, gonna go see if i can find them. [/COLOR]

[tunnelrat88]

Lehsreh, they are out and about. After some searching a bit myself, I ran across the whole series at one of the Toys R Us near me. They had the whole thing, but I just picked what I wanted out of the bunch. Got the Cobra set (expect a full review in the reviews section), the officer, and Flint. The rest of the single packs didn't do much for me (Snake Eyes looked bland and the boxed set one looked much better, didn't need two commanders and storm shadows) and the joe set really doesn't entice me save for snake Eyes and Roadblock (which i would like to trade for so i don't have to buy the rest of the set). But overall I'm very happy with my find, as they have really gone past my expectations.

[Captain Max]

I just got my 12inch Catwoman from DCDirect! Awesome!! :p

She's in the Jim Lee-style costume.....and I think GI Joe just got a new adversary! :)

:rolleyes: CURIOUS WHAT ARE THEY GOING FOR AT TOYS R US T RAT?
THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO RELEASED SUN AT THE TOYS R US OVER HERE. JUST WONDERING HOW MUCH SCRATCH I'LL NEED TO PICK UP THE WHOLE SET.

[General Scarlett]

On a phone tip from Flint, I headed over to K*B Toys and got us each a Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow.

Flint is yet to get his in his hands........(I'll be seeing him tomorrow night most likely), but I opened mine up and I've got to say, while they are incredibly detailed, I am in agreement with Outrider. They seem so fragile to me that I was afraid to bend their arms..........

I MIGHT use them in shots......but it will be infrequently. I'll have to see how the 5 packs go, but it looks like Scarlett is still going to stay the v1 as my 'go to girl'..........

[Lowlight13]

Just picked up some parts for my Firefly custom!! :)
and picked up some paint for him!!!!!
expect pics soon.

[ToneGunsRevisited]

I got some Marauder items:
2 m-4 w/ shotgun;
4 nvr rifles;
4 mp5;
1 mic;
1 swat figure;
2 swat vests;
1 socom pistol.

[Captain Max]

Now would that be different than an 'Action Man' or even a 'Woman of Means' ????? :confused: :p ;)

[Sonneilon]

I just got Flint from Target today. 10 mins earlier, I'd have the v2 SS but bastardo in line before me had him! I admit, I LIKE the 25th Flint!!!

[ToneGunsRevisited]

I got the snow tank from the BF2000 w/o the external part. I'll turn it into a custom tank.

[ender098]

Don't know if I posted it or not, but I scored a couple of BBI BlackHawks for $29.99 at Target and a PTE Command Center at Big Lots for $30.00.

[LordRaven]

Well, before I moved into the new apt, Franko got me a ROCC from HTS and the WHALE which needs fixing. My big brother rules.

Also-I found AT Air Adventurer at Wal*Mart today! :D

[Flatline]

MY HOME BOY JJSVIPERS SENT ME A LIL GIFT TODAY. THE 25TH SNAKE EYES AND COBRA COMMANDER. :D :D

[GoCards]

I finally found some 25th Anniversary figures yesterday and got my Marauder Series #4 order in the mail today! It's been a great week! :D

[Outrider]

Received my Collector's Club Copperhead in the mail yesterday, only to discover that both of his lower legs are left legs. Damn!

[Captain Max]

I got some custom sculpted heads from Alyosha's Corner and 3 DTC Snow Serpents from SmallJoes. :D

[ToneGunsRevisited]

Side Track v1 and Recondo v1.

[Captain Max]

I just got another DTC Snow Serpent I traded a Sigma figure for on JBL-now I have a squad of 6! :D

[Prince Adam]

I got Flint on Friday night, then nothing the rest of the weekend. But today I got my Murauders order!! A dozen AK-47s, a few swords and a Megatron pistol!!!

[yorktownjoe]

FINALLY! 25th anniversary has arrived in Green Bay. I saw an empty peg hook at TRU, then I found 4 single packs remaining at my Walmart. They had 2 SE, one SS, and 1 Flint. I picked up one SE and one SS, and left Flint ant the other SE for another collector.

I like them! SE is really poseable, and SS is okay. I would have loved to pick up one Cobra Officer as well, but I'm being patient, and they will restock...sometime.

I have yet to integrate them with my other figures, but I hope to have some time soon.

Flint looked a little odd to me, so I picked up just the two... Maybe I'll pick him up another time.

[General Jones]

Long list....
Swivel arm Breaker
Doc
Thunder
Cutter
Lamprey V1
Slipstream
Rumbler
Armadillo
Skidmark
Deejay
Night Viper V1
Aero Viper
Long Range V1
Ambush
Undertow V1
Overlord
Updraft
Big Ben
Desert Scorpion
Tracker
A "Name your own Cobra"
and Superhero

All of these were acquired over the coarse of two weeks.

[Prince Adam]

That's an awesome list Jones!!!

I ppicked up the Cobra 5 pack today. It's pretty good. I think the Joe is the better of the two though, despite how badly I wanted Storm Shadow. He's by far the best in the pack possibly the best in the line!!!

[Flatline]

JJSVIPERS TOTALLY HOOKED ME UP WITH A CON EXCLUSIVE SILVER HEAD DESTRO. :cool: THE ONE I WAS SUPOSE TO GRAB FOR HIM AT THE COMIC CON :o

[shawntur]

I drove 2 hours today when to 3 walmarts and 2 k marts finally the last kmart had 1 single pack storm shadow. I was very disapointed that they only had 1 single pack. Walmart did have 1 peg for the 25th anniversary but was empty.
:(

[Sonneilon]

I got my order from MarauderInc on Monday. :D

Found the Joe 5-pack at Target finally. Poor Flint was warming a peg but he was gone the next day.

[gogorobo]

went to target today and they had a ton of single card Stormshadow's and Snake-Eyes so i grabbed a couple

[Prince Adam]

I got another Officer today. Yesterday I went to biglots to see if they had the Peacekeeper stuff. Saw a few things but didn't get any. Definitely gonna have to go back and get the watchtower. The humvees look promising too.

BAT 6 packs are awesome! The Overkill is pretty lame, but the others are great!

I picked up a PTE guy at Biglot today. He came with a pretty cool parachute. Needed an extra figure to use as a downed guard in a 25th dio.

[Scarrviper]

He won't be so lame when I'm done customizing him ;) :D .

[Outrider]

My sincere thanks go to Luis a.k.a. ToneGuns, who sent me an Alpinista, just because he is a good guy! Luis, thank you brother, and check out the photos section! :)

Still waiting on my mother load from Marauder.....Can't wait to get my hands on 'em!!

[Sonneilon]

Found and bought the 25thA Cobra 5'r. About time I found that bad boy. I guess my Target restocks on the weekend and well, I don't come in till Monday Mornings to pick over the remains.

[Prince Adam]

Finally picked up the v2 25th Snake Eyes. He's cool, although I kinda wish his chest strap and belt were separate pieces. Headsculpt is really amazing up close. The fact that both SEs are dark grey still kills me though. :confused:

[gogorobo]

my wife picked up the bbi blackhawk for me today while she was out shopping didn't even know about till she got home with this huge box.. it is truly awsome :D

[Flatline]

HEY NO PROB. ENDER THANKS TO YOU TOO FOR THE AGENT FACES (*sorry I didn't thank you sooner*). :o

[Prince Adam]

Agent Faces is a god amongst mail-aways!!!

I got my comic pack Covergirl from the P.O. today. She fits in perfectly with the 25th!

[General Scarlett]

Just came from a job interview, *(which, fingers crossed I get so I can get out of the hell I'm working in now)*, and for S***S and Giggles I thought I'd stop into the TRU, 'MART and TARGET that are on the strip where I was............found both 5 packs and scored a set of each for Flint and myself.......hey, he is my wingman......I couldn't very well leave him hangin'!!!!!

Looking at them in the box though, I don't know that I'll even take 'em out.........their nice and stuff, but...............you know????

[gogorobo]

finally got a vamp mark II.. it was pure luck and i didn't have to spend more then fifteen bucks for it!!!! :D

[ToneGunsRevisited]

Winchill, Repeater, Charbroil and Lightfoot, all them loose. However the great surprise was that the Repeater who I got today has tight joints and my old (not so old) was loose. You guys know what I did. :D

[LordRaven]

I just got the 25th Anniversary Cobra Boxed set and the PTE Command HQ! Thanks FRANK!

[tunnelrat88]

I also have to thank Frank because he got me the HQ and the camping play set (I believe the watchtower is en-route as well. And I finally got a Kwinn figure, plus I am waiting for the great deal I scored on E-bay to arrive (Repeater, Hardball, Tiger Force Lifeline and Tripwire for under 15 bucks.)

[shawntur]

Picked up 25th anniversery single packs at a Toys R Us. finally got all but the black timber variant. Next week I should have 3 full cases of the single packs. My girlfriend ordered through her work.

[General Scarlett]

[Prince Adam]

Got a pair of Bazookas in the mail. Then I stopped in an out of the way family Ddollar and scored Ace, Baroness, and a pair of Sand Vipers. Never really noticed how cool Sand Vipers were!

[Scarrviper]

I just recieved a complete V1 Headhunter today from ebay. The gold paint on the mask was almost gone :eek: so I got him for a steal :D . Thankfully I have gold paint :D . Now he's ready to roll along with the rest of the gang.

I envy the both of you! I can never find any good Joe stuff locally, well not vintage RAH type Joe stuff. There is one Comic shop that has older Joes, but we're talking $55 for a dusty Hiss tank :rolleyes: and prices of that nature.

[Scarrviper]

Trust me, I got lucky :D . It's rare that I can find stuff like this :( .

[ender098]

I scored a couple more of the Night Creepers from the Cobra Urban attack 6 pack..... I forget..are they V6 or V9....baxsically the black ones that use the V1 mold! I LOVE those guys!!

PDD v1 or v2? And how much did you pay, if we are talkin' about v1?

[Prince Adam]

Yesterday I got another 25th Duke for a custom, my Marauder's order, and a CP Destro for my little girl.

Today I got my v3 Interrogator, and I think I even like him better than the original!

[Da Talent]

I scored some sweet stuff today. first I got my latest maruders order (you can never have enough guns). And second I got a tactical assult vehicle from smalljoes.com. Usually I'm not to keen on mixing in not joe vehicles but for price of this thing, its unreal. Its on clearence for 7 bux knocked down from twenty. I can do without an extra 12 pack of beer for a day. The detail is incredible and the setup on in is extremely versatile. You gotta check it out and pick it up, for the price its a killer piece to add to your dios. I can't wait to take some pics!

Alpine and Deluxe Swann!

[Prince Adam]

Pretty good day! I got my Whales from ebay. One's great and almost complete, the other is so-so. Then I found wave 2 singles at Wal-Mart. Picked up Beach Head, LJ, Cobra Trooper, and Cobra Commander. The others didn't really do much for me.

[Sonneilon]

YOU FOUND WAVE2??? I don't even have a complete wave1 25A!!!

However, in spirit of this thread, I just 'won' a couple of single 25A MOCs. v2 SE and Hooded CC. I just need a 'cheap' Cobra Officer to finish the wave. Thing is, I don't know if I am interested in the army builder Cobra 5-pack. I love Wave2 and Wave3, but man, I just can't get into a Stinger Driver or Jump Pack Troopa MuthaFrakka.

[tunnelrat88]

I have been on a bit of an E-Bay spree as of late. I've been dying to take my camera home to get a nice group photo of all these:

Delivered:
Capt. Gridiron Complete
Repeater Complete
Recoil sans double gun
Hardball Complete
Dice with Axe and Bow Staff
Static Line with the thing that goes around his chest
Kwinn sans wolf
Sideswipe/ Lifeline Two Pack MOC
Tiger Force Lifeline
Tiger Force Tripwire (the worst condition one of the lot with a broken crotch)

To be Delivered:
Shockwave v. 1
Mercer v.1
Road Pig
Moto Viper
Big Boa
Iron Grenadier

I got them all for a reasonable price and all are in near mint condition. Now I have to take a break from buying for a while, but its gonna be hard once the 2nd wave of 25A hits town.

[Sonneilon]

I don't know how Craig feels about Repeater, but I LOVED the guy. it was like, for us in that age, GI Joe was losing it's militariness. The intro of Repeater was awesome cuz the figure was cool. Sure, the head mold had a lot to be desired but a steady cam machine gun ala Aliens??? The guy was slated as an old war dog and in my view, could kick Heavy Duty, Roadblock and RnR's arse all over. I loved this figure. In the same way that Falcon and Tunnel Rat were instant faves in that they were military oriented, not goofily oriented like Ice Cream Soldier and Raptor.
