General Joe Talk / Did Resolute come out today?
« on: November 03, 2009, 02:15:31 PM »
I went to three places in Brantford today and I found tons of Rise of Cobra and GIJoe Season 1.2 I didn't find Resolute anywhere.  Did they push it back or is it possible stores didn't order it?

General Joe Talk / Can you recycle packages?
« on: October 29, 2009, 12:13:52 PM »
I'm just kinda cleaning up and I'm tossing out a butt load of packages from Transformers, Joe, and some DCU and I'm wondering if I can recycle the plastic? It just seems sad to throw out all that.

Customs / Cobra Decals/Stickers or Symbols needed.
« on: September 28, 2009, 07:00:26 PM »
Hi,

I'm making a custom Cobra Commander Transformer out of a Marvel/TF Thor. It wasn't my own idea as I saw someone else do it on a website someplace. However it looked like something I could do. I've started with all the blue painting, then I'll move on to the head. I thought I'd follow up with some decals or stickers but I'm having trouble finding a Cobra Rattler symbol. I know I saw a whole site devoted to Cobra symbols and variations and I was wondering if anyone either knew of the site or just happened to have a decent picture for me to look at?

Ontario / That wacky Zellers Brantford
« on: March 25, 2009, 03:52:26 PM »
I came across the elusive wave...I want to say 7? comic packs today. The wave with Rock N Roll/Deep Six, CC and Gung Ho, etc. So I grabbed the RnR pack. When I got to the cash register they had no idea how much it cost. So I waited around while they found a price. The price they gave me? $7.99. As she put the number in I saw Combat Heroes come up on the register. I wish I had grabbed more of them had I known they would give me such a good price. I wasn't sure if I should tell her that can't possibly be right but after standing around for 15 minutes I thought I earned it.

Items Wanted / Ingrediants for a Custom 25th Zarana
« on: March 06, 2009, 12:38:59 PM »
I would like to make myself a custom Zarana. I guess my options for parts are limited but I'm not going for an exact remake of the original anyway. If anyone has an extra Lady Jaye they don't want, I could probably use it. I didn't want to buy the new 5 pack just to have the one figure to destroy.

OR if anyone can recommend a female figure of the same scale that could fit in with 25th Joes that I could use instead, I would appreciate that.

Ontario / Destro SRO 3 pack TRU Hamilton
« on: February 04, 2009, 05:35:51 PM »
They have a bunch of Iron Grenadier 3 packs in Hamilton at Toys R Us. They had some single cards as well (a first?) but they were all old figures like Spirit, TF Flint, Crimson Guard etc.

Ohh and if anyone needs Transformers Animated Oil Slick, they have 31 of them. Thats all they had, 6 pegs of the same friggin guy...And Unicron which I want but cant justify 64 bucks...they had a few dozen Unicrons.

General Joe Talk / IDW GIJOE #1 out today.
« on: January 14, 2009, 03:52:33 PM »
I just picked it up. Its written by Chuck Dixon who I've always been a fan of.

I like how they're starting fresh. I wasn't a huge follower of the Marvel stuff simply because I was too young to collect it on a regular basis and I found I was always struggling to figure out what was up. Though I liked what I had read back in the day anyway.

They have 3 covers but I just picked the first one. I don't buy multiples anymore.

Introductions / Hello!
« on: November 01, 2008, 05:53:02 PM »
Hi there!

I discovered this site from YoJoe when they advertised Issue 10 of your awesome free news letter.

I'm from Canada (Brantford/Hamilton area) and I'm an artist. I kinda got back into Joes because of the 25th Anniversary figures. I still have all my old ones. I kept them in a big rubbermaid container. I've dug them back out and fixed up the broken o-rings etc.

I wish I had been able to go to the Joe Meet last year. I got stuck at work. :(

I'll see people around. I like to lurk for a bit to get to know the people, then I start talking and I don't usually stop :)
