So?

For me here is what I would like with vehicles:

Dreadnok Air and Ground Assault sets.  They have all 4 vehicles (FANG, Ghost Hawk, RAM, Stinger) and the sets are pretty rare and fairly unique.  Of course they are personal faves.

VAMP mk2/Tiger Sting.  They have the updated mold and now with the Wolf Hound, they have a missile rack that works well in my opinion.

Of course subgroup repaints would also be nice.

For figures:

I would actually like to see them include a few of the 7 packs into waves on individual cards.

I like those ideas. It'd be great if they did an all-black VAMP as well - I mean, it's different enough tooling to differentiate it enough from the original, and good enough as a stand-in for the old expensive Consumers Distributing version for most of us.

In Halifax?

Check Strange Adventures, they have a store Downtown on sackville street and a new one in Dartmouth. They bring in lots of GI Joe stuff: www.strangeadventures.com or call 902-425-2140

Yeah, I like Strange Adventures a lot, but like I said, I kind of want to get something where I can exchange the old one in as defective... Thanks though - great store! I bought quite a few of the 25th figures there when it was hard getting them on the shelves...

Yeah, unfortunately it's pretty dead for the Atlantic provinces... Man, I need to move back to Ontario! ;)
I'd make it a point to post myself but I will be out of the country for several months pretty soon...

If you can't wait for PoC to arrive, you can buy a set online?  For instance HJL Collectables (Hal)  or if you want to killed with shipping costs places like BBTS.com.

Yeah, thing is I was able to pick up most stuff already on a trip to the states, but there's a problem with my HISS and I want to see if I can get another one and exchange the faulty one... kind of hard since I can't go back down to where I bought it originally (should have checked in the hotel!).

I buy stuff from BBTS, etc all the time. I've been hit pretty bad with an order from them (the 7-packs - pile of loot), Sideshow and Mastercollector lately. I try to avoid the high shipping and customs but if I want the exclusive stuff you gotta bite the bullet.

Keep checking the Sightings threads Dprime for your province, its always pretty good in letting you know if thing are coming out and where they are available or not available (since many boardies clean out certain areas lol)

Wow, old post... Anyway I think they're doing some kind of sci-fi/comic show in Halifax this October finally... might be worth checking out, if that's all we've got (I need to move back to Ontario).

Yes it has already.

Where are you located?

Halifax...

I admit I haven't had a chance to do much shopping as I've been away on training. I did check one Walmart here yesterday and it didn't have anything yet.

Stupid question, probably. I know I'm not on this site as often as I should, being a proud Canuck and all, and this has probably come up already... but do we know?

Anxiously awaiting the news - I won't be able to go the US one this year, but I'll be in Ontario for MOST of the spring/summer on predeployment training, so I'm HOPING this will mean I can hop in a rental car and come on down to Hamilton!!!

That place is like my Mecca. I wish I would have known about it when I lived in Victoria...
