Smile What are your 'most desired' GI Joe Toys?

Hi everyone.

Basically,what is your 'Grail Quest'? What Joe Toy that you don't have do you most want?

For me,it's the two 'biggies':

the USS Flagg:Oh,Doctor do I wants me one of these!

unfortunately,the last one I found was $ 700 bucks!

the other,of course,is the Terror Drome:I SOOOOO wanted one of these.......couldn't afford it in '86............can't afford it now!

How about you?

My goal is to have every character who's been a member of the Joes; easy enough to get a Snake Eyes and a Duke but the following are the ones I have left to get and are some of the hardest to find, complete and with filecards, at least for affordable prices:

Hardtop
Starduster
Skydive
Cold Front
Skymate
Gears
Sparks
Doc II

The ones I'm hungering for are the Desert Apache and the Locust. I also need to pick up a 1997 Mobat! As for figures, the Starduster/Grandslam Jet pack troopers from the Con this year as well as Roddy Piper would be great.....and I would still LOVE to have a PDD V1!!

Any word on when MC is gonna put out DTC Wave 4?

I've been lucky enough to track down most of the stuff I've needed, but I'm still looking for a Rattler jeep from 1998. The odd one pops up on eBay, but they go for ridiculous prices. Other than that, a Mobile Command Centre.

What I want more than anything is 2 Lynxs' tanks. Even just one would be great. I had one when I was a kid. You think a simple tank that was basically a wolverine would be easy to find, but I never can. I thought I finally had one on ebay, but after 3 months it still hasn;t got here so thats a lost cause damn evil bay. please santa? anyone out there?

I want the original '83 HQ and the Flagg and a Vamp, both v1 and v2. Just never got around to getting a Vamp and I think they kick ass. I don't get into the little things like Heavy Metal's mic and the green Firefly phone, they don't interest me very much. But there's a couple guys I still want too and just haven't tracked 'em down.

EX:
TF Recondo
NF Lightfoot
Artic Firefly
NF Spearhead

Some of them are really cool repaints, I just don't ever think to look for them when I'm on ebay.

I kinda want the...

PhantomX19 or whatever GhostRider came in. Errrrr, was that his name? I don't remember his name...

Mamba. I don't know what it is about these things, but even if they are purple, they're still cool.

WHALE. NEver had one, always wanted one. Course, I said that about the MORAY and Hasbro went and screwed up the re-release. Didn't seem as cool as when I was a kid. Maybe it was just cool in the comic. Gee, did the comic have ANY influence on us as kids???

HAVOC. I LOVED it as a kid but it disappeared back in middle school. I'd love it to show up again. I know, I know, it makes NO sense as a battle machine but man, the cool escalating cannons, the tracked uh, tracks and the hovercraft were dope. "Maybe walking's better for my health..."
