General Joe Talk / Did Hasbro confirm any other cancelled figures?
« on: June 07, 2010, 09:04:30 PM »
Just wondering. 

I know they confirmed that the Desert Ripcord with movie accurate head was cancelled and a Skydive figure is coming using that same mold, but with different colours.

Were there any others confirmed cancelled?

General Joe Talk / Who's next? Who would you like to see updated?
« on: May 28, 2010, 03:40:44 PM »
So we finally got our Lowlight.  We also have a Sgt. Slaughter coming our way.  SWEET!!!!!!!!!!

So who do you want next?

Personally I would like to see them give us a few more drivers.

Covergirl to finish 1984 and Cross Country and a proper Cutter would be my first choices.

General Joe Talk / What's your feeling on pricing for Joes?
« on: May 24, 2010, 10:49:59 AM »
I've been doing some buying lately from shows and online.  It got me to thinking and examining the current "trends" in pricing for Joes.  Unfortunately there is only really Ebay, online stores and forums to compare. 

I've noticed a trend towards a stubborn/unrealistic fixation on pricing.  Outside of individual collectors/fans who are selling at low prices to move stuff most others have settled on what I think is probably double to triple "realistic" pricing.  I notice it even moreso with Canadian sellers.  It seems like there is a belief that the fandom is bigger and more willing to spend than it really is.  I know with the TF fandom there is a bigger base to sell to and as such prices can swing to greater degrees, but the demand isn't there in our fandom and the pricing just doesn't reflect that.

Of course exclusives and "rare" items will always go for great prices, but the average items just seem to be priced too high.  I find it is actually more prevelant with 2000 and later items than with "vintage" items. 

I understand that there is a desire to recoup costs for the online businesses, but a lot of them just seem to be pricing at amounts that don't move items ever.

Just my opinion, I'm sure there are others.  What do you guys think?

For Sale or Trade / Movie vehicle toy lot (12 vehicles). $90
« on: May 05, 2010, 05:05:06 PM »
NEW UPDATE

Hey all,

Just have a lot of vehicles from the movie line that I am looking to part ways with.  All are complete with all parts and paperwork.  The figures are NOT included.  I'm asking $90CDN for the lot.  NOT including shipping.  If you want to pick it up locally (Toronto) that's good too.

Sorry, but I'm not looking to break it up unless the offer is really good.

Off Topic / S.K. Omega = S.K.Oh My God!!!!!
« on: April 30, 2010, 09:06:36 PM »
A new toyline in the 3 3/4" scale with O-ring figures.  Personally I would prefer newer style figures, but check out the figures, VEHICLE!!!! and MISSILE COMMAND BASE!!!!

The line is supposedly going to have animation and a comic that is being passed out at Joecon. 

As someone said, it is surprising that they were allowed to be there since they would be a direct competitor.  Without a doubt I will be getting at least 2 of those transport helicopters for Cobra customs!!!

Ontario / TRU SRO 3 packs.
« on: January 09, 2010, 03:59:57 PM »
Just a heads up in case anyone is interested.  The SRO 3 packs are now $9.98 at TRU.  I picked up the last Iron Grenadiers pack, but they still had a bunch of the air and naval packs.

All Across Canada / Zellers sale Nov. 13th-19th.
« on: November 13, 2009, 10:38:48 AM »
So there is a sale this week.  25% off all JOE figures/vehicles.  While not great on some items, it does knock down the price to a more reasonable amount for some things.

Of course the Target exclusive packs are now down to $22.50.
The PP Conquest & TF Tiger Rat are down to $22.50
The Rhino is now $60.

So while not too bad, it is still better than full price.  Especially those jets.  However I will wait until a better deal, at least 30% off, for the jets.
