Yearly CanJoeCon Discussion / Re: 2009 Con Sets

Quote from: "canprime"Quote from: "Raptor"It does make me wary to see these as listed in C10 shape. They are custom figures after all, I am pretty sure that none of them qualify for C-10 even as they came out of our hands and were placed directly by Mike into the box.
It's nice to see the efforts appreciated, but anyone that tries to represent fan produced content as having the quality of factory produced content may be being a little misleading. We did our best, but we didn't have a factory.

Second, wow. Great work, I look at my HATE and could swear it was done using a machine. JUDOS!!! (better than Kudos).

But there had to be some machine work involved right? I mean the HATE wasn't done by hand right?

I'll definitely cave on the Serpent Armor for that price.
I was in Zellers this morning and they had almost 2 pallets worth of stuff sitting in the aisles waiting to be stocked. I didn't get a good look, but there were a lot of Hasbro boxes so I am going to hit them up later today or tomorrow and try my luck.

They easily missed one of the stupidest designs in the JOE arsenal. The HAVOC!!! I mean really, let's put the driver high up in an open seat with no protection. Then of course the back up guys/gunners are in a cockpit/cabin that is surrounded by glass and they have to lay down to drive!!!
The writing of the article combined with the glaring lack of any research just shows how this article was nothing but a throw-away piece meant to fill space.

They now have a second confirmation. Both sightings were actually in BC. So hopefully these will pop up here soon.

Someone over at actionfigurenews.ca is claiming to have found the following at Zellers (Brentwood Town Centre) for $29.99 each:
Wet-Suit w/Dragonfish
Storm Shadow w/Arashikage Cycle
Air Viper w/Rocket Pack
Cobra Viper Commando w/Serpent Armor
and
Rescue Mission 4 packs.
Take that for what it is. A single sighting, but it could mean a trip to Zellers to confirm.

Don't know what the price is for Resolute alone, but HMV has it listed in their flyer for $9.99.
Also, Best Buy has the SHOUT Factory DVD set listed for $114.99 (Nov. 10th release).

Saw this on another board.
All I can say is sweet!!!!! If they did a resolute show, I would love to see something like these guys to replace the October Guard as an alternate to the JOEs.

For Sale or Trade / Re: ok before the hate mail comes

I don't see the problem. For me if he wants to sell to make a little cash its his right to do so. His reasons are his own.
Having said that I'm not going to bid on something like that because $500 can be spent on way more stuff in the stores. I don't think I'd pay anymore then the original price you could get them at the convention for.
That's your perogative, but with this set you won't be buying it for original price. Unless you have a time machine and go back to get it at the con. That or someone feels really generous and sells it for that price.

Another one on Ebay:

Looks like they may have started the auction at too high a price. That or the shipping quote is absolutely crazy ($81.20 for my location).

General Joe Talk / What's your top 5 "MODERN" era vehicles.
« on: October 26, 2009, 05:43:15 PM »
I was talking with a friend today and we started discussing what our favourite "Modern era" vehicles were. That meant to us something "new" made in the past 10 years (2000 on). We excluded remade/retooled ARAH vehicles (Ghost hawk, Vamp, etc.). It was kind of surprising how different we were on our choices. He leaned more towards "fantasy" designs, while I was closer to realistic designs.
His choices were:
Sting Raider
Defense Mech
Pulverizer
Night Adder
Hoverstrike
My choices were:
Thunderwing Jet
Grizzly Tank
Rhino
Ringneck
R.O.C.C.
What about you guys?
