An unexpected find...
« on: April 24, 2011, 11:20:20 PM »

Today I was reorganizing my bins of ARAH vehicles. I was holding the Hammerhead in my hands when I heard something "dance" inside of the shell. After close to ten minutes of shaking the vehicle in many ways, my reward came out: an original helmet belonging to Decimator in minty shape.

I originally bought the vehicle without the driver, so this helmet is probably the one that belonged to the original driver.

EDIT: I wrote "heads" instead of hands, stupid me  :P. Corrected.

I also shook my Defiant once, and 4 original accessories came out from the space lab, but it was all Battleforce stuff and Sgt. Slaughter's Renegades stuff...nothing more  :lol:

I bought a huge bin of joe stuff at a garage sale once.
heard something rattling around in a killer whale shell.
after some shaking it turned out to be 2 of the grenade launchers from the mauler.
( and 1 marble! )

+1 - great to hear stories like this.
All, I've found by shaking is a broken Gnawgahyde gun inside a Crusader! He must have been a stowaway!

Dead spiders and helmets are nice but have you ever found an artifact?  It was at the bottom of a box of some spare Joe vehicles parts. I don't have the vehicles anymore but the artifact I still have.
