Anyone that has a good rapport with comic or toy stores in their area, and think those shops would be willing to put some postcard flyers in them, please contact me. I have a TON to go around. ;-) Thanks!

Hey Mike, I just wanted to let you know, i put them cards you gave me at the Woodstock toy show, to my local comic shop, Retro Rocket, here in Cambridge. I was in their again today, he asked for a poster or something he could put in the window, and more cards for hand outs. How Would i go about getting that for him?

General Hawk: Technically, G.I. Joe does not exist, but if it did, it\'d be comprised of the top men and women from the top military units in the world, the alpha dog\'s. When all else fails, we don\'t.

How is the Joe supply at Retro Rocket. I keep meaning to check them out. Do they have any of the vehicles Canada didn't get?

To keep this on topic, I'll hit up J&J in Waterloo if you want Mike. I'm friends with them.

When I picked up my Joe comic about a week ago they had a whole wall of G.I. Joe.  I can't speak to exactly what was in there but there were plenty of singles and comic packs.  There only seemed to be maybe a half dozen or so vehicles and a few Mighty Muggs.

I don't have a poster, but shoot me a PM with your mailing address and I'll mail you some more. Thanks!! Tell him thanks as well!

Yes guys, lets please keep this thread on topic. ;-)

Morg, I can mail you some as well since I won't be in that area.... any other stores in your area that you think might promote it?? They'll get a plug at CanadianJoeCon.com when I set up the page.

I could ask the guy who runs Alternative Icons in Brantford if he'd hand out some cards. He's done it before for TFCon and other events. He runs a great comic book store and at this point I think anyone who collects comics in Brantford goes there.
