.... and yes, that's a Canadian-Cobra Sticker sheet AND it's die-cut so you can just peel the stickers off instead of cutting them. It's not shown, but there's two mini-Cobra logos. One was originally going to be used on Chacal Noir, but he comes with one applied now! So you get an extra cobra decal to do whatever you want with!

That absolutely rocks.   The only way to make  a character even better is to make it a trooper and that is just plain awesome.   Can't wait to read its filecard!

That's the first I've seen of the Frostback artwork. It might be my favourite one yet. Very dynamic and aggressive.

So if this guy is a troop builder, will there be singles available at the show? Otherwise how can we 'build' them if we are only able to buy one set per person? Just wondering because I would buy extra single Frostbacks myself if given the option..  :cobra:

Can it be, A great Joecanauck exclusive!  These are awesome!

I really dig the 905 area code used for the HATE's number! Why not 416 tho?  The Toronto Area code?  Is the HATE not a Mega-city worthy vehicle???

No, it's just appropriate.  The 905ers obviously HATE us 416ers so it fits the theme.

It's hard being the centre of the universe, and it leads to a lot of hate, but we shoulder the burden with quiet, reserved dignity. :wink:

If the Convention was held in Toronto, it would be 416
If the Convention was held in Vancouver, it woud be 250

Simple as that, really.

Most of us regulars live in the 905 area code.  Plus Toronto also has a 647 area code, in addition to the 416.

Yup I live in 905 area and love that the HATE is numbered after it  ;D

How about that. Well, if it can be changed and we have the time and someone has the will, 100 belts will be turned rightsideup. If not, just tell yourself that Frostback troopers need whatever's in those pouches ASAP and they let gravity help get at it.

I know you said that what master collector does is farthest from your mind in designing these sets, but now that master collector just announced their set, I think it's pretty safe to say my predicition was correct.  Your set destroys their's in both originality and diversity.

Love that Walter P-38! Besides the Obvious '80's reference, How about a "Man from U.N.C.L.E." one...  :wink:

I also think these 2 are the best of the set the rest are also very cool and a joecanuck online exclusive would be nice.

Very cool HATE tank.  You guys really put a great set together this year.  Has a photo been posted of the complete set in the box?

I put the stickers on this bad boy an hour ago and put my Black Ice custom in the gunner seat he's quite at home inside it.


AWESOME!!!

I just moved a set of toys that hold a *very* prestigious position in my collection to the storage locker to make room for the Convention Set on my shelf.

It's a really nice set and all involved should be very proud of themselves!

I hear ya, I'm scratching my head as to how to make the tank fit on my con exclusives shelf right now, and I'm thinking I need to just build a new shelf :P

Top shelf of my Sigma Collection just got bumped. That's where I put my mini-busts....

I now have to completely re-do that case. And I'm happy to do so. :-)

I've slowly been doing the same with my case too.  The HATE & Deadeye now make a very nice centerpiece to the "special to me" shelf.
