Hi I am looking for the following complete figures with their weapons ( no filecard needed )
82-83 snakeeyes
83 stormshadow
82 short fuze with visor
82 grand slam with visor
82-83 rock n roll gun with bipod
82 hawk with visor
84 firefly
85 eel
86 bats
87 big boa with mask hose
87 croc master with mask hose
87 outback with unbroken gun
87 tunnel rat with flashlights
87 ice viper with knives

What? No Zartan?

Your list is a who's who of difficult to find weapons. Best of luck but I suspect you're gonna be shelling out some dough. Especially for visors. I almost never see them on their own or with a cheap figure.

Those 82/32 weapons are so odd. I KNOW my weapons from that era are original but they're certainty not black as Yojoe says. More of a dark grey and some are darker (Rock n Roll, Short Fuze) than others (Snake Eyes, Flash. Scarlett).

The kid wasn't a monster per se. I was told that his issues were an abusive home life and behavioural problems.

Where I grew up a LOT of kids were spoiled rotten since their dads worked in the woods and made a fortune. They used to break their toys in the way you describe for no other reason that their parents would replace them with new toys. I guess I just assume the worst since I was exposed to nothing but destructive little jerks (count some of them as my best friends) while I had to scrimp and save to get a figure every 2 months or so. On the bright side I got a ton of parts and weapons for almost nothing and learned how to fix joes and vehicles at a young age. (10-11) My mom also considered the mail aways great deals so I have to thank her for me now having a couple different Steel Brigades, Sgt. Slaughter and the elusive Starduster.

I only wish WHOBIT existed back then. I've had some weapons on the wrong joes for 20 years! Luckily I kept all the spares so I'm only missing a few at this point.

I got so lucky with my old stuff. Since it was in my parents attic I couldn't get at it to toss it all and they weren't gonna bother since it was out of the way.

Going back into those totes and pulling out a 25 year old Night Raven or Mauler that was EXACTLY in the condition I left it was a strange feeling. It was like opening a time capsule.

I feel so bad for ARROW. It's the most painful when you were the original owner. You collect and treat your toys really well and some spoiled little monster just smashes them. I've given away a lot of stuff over the years and my policy has to be to never ask about the current state of it or it'll drive me nuts.

Introductions / Re: 20 year collecting hiatus now OVER!
« on: June 25, 2013, 10:03:18 PM »
It was more expensive 5 years ago? This is good news!

I'm pretty lucky in that when I was collecting I was able to get almost every carded figure before 1987 for $0.25 from various friends that had them and any missing weapons or filecards from others (in 1988 mind you).

Other than a few rare guys (among my friends) and vehicle drivers I usually had 3+ to choose the one in the best shape.

Ah for the good old days.....

And who'd have thought that crappy S.M.S. with no figure would be worth so much? Who knew?

I've managed to figure out Scarlett's hair (at least my particular Scarlett). Interesting mix. 3 drops orange, 2 drops red, 3 drops yellow and a bit of green (a SMALL bit) to darken.

I used a Testors Acrylic set that has some skateboards on the cover and includes:

Gloss Red
Gloss Orange
Gloss Yellow
Gloss Green
Gloss Blue
Gloss Black
Gloss White
Metallic Silver
Metallic Gold

I've tried the black on the feet and belt of an old Cobra Commander and it looks pretty good.

I'll try the silver on his entire mask next, maybe I'll look better than using those Silver Sharpie paint pens (and less tacky as in never dries). I'll try thinning it if it doesn't go on evenly.

I'll also try to mix the brown they used on a lot of the 1982 boots. I'll post the mix here if I get it right.

Anyone ever figure out some recipes for mixing some of the standard Joe colours for touching up figures?
