Post Your Latest Gi Joe Booty!!!
 
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 03-05-2007 06:52 PM

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.

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 03-05-2007 08:58 PM

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 03-06-2007 09:58 AM

Psssssst, Frank. 25th stuff should be June.

ender098 03-06-2007 10:14 AM

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

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 03-06-2007 11:09 AM

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 03-06-2007 11:34 AM

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

Jay 03-06-2007 11:45 AM

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 03-06-2007 11:51 AM

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

Jay 03-06-2007 11:54 AM

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 03-06-2007 12:02 PM

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 03-06-2007 02:31 PM

LordRaven 03-06-2007 05:41 PM

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 03-07-2007 02:14 AM

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 03-08-2007 09:53 AM

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 03-08-2007 10:03 AM

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

Jay 03-08-2007 10:15 AM

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 03-08-2007 10:29 AM

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 03-08-2007 04:09 PM

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.... :(

Wait till you see what I got comin your way for your B-Day.....
Hmmmmm.....will they ship a stripper over the Border? hmmmmm

LOL!;)

NemesisEnforcerFan 03-10-2007 12:25 AM

My latest arrivals..
 
I just got this lot in...


I'm totally diggin that Urban Strike Firefly.. and those IG's, Annihilators and TARGATs have boosted my destro forces .. which were looking rather poor.. :D

phu 03-10-2007 10:01 AM

Nice! That Firefly does look pretty cool. :)

Got these guys in last night:



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 03-10-2007 10:18 AM

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.

I'm jealous about your Iron Grenadier army.

phu 03-12-2007 03:33 PM



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

Nowadays only if they have a Photo ID :-D

Can't wait to see what ya sent me Homie

Jay 03-12-2007 03:59 PM

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 03-12-2007 09:10 PM

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

phu 03-13-2007 08:08 AM

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

34th Fighting Collectibles

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 03-15-2007 02:35 PM

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 03-19-2007 08:49 AM

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

What parts you need? IM me....;)

Outrider 03-19-2007 10:17 PM

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 03-20-2007 12:26 PM

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 03-20-2007 01:15 PM

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...
