it's too bad but...

Redmao:
nothing seems to be happening joe wise around here. We are a few Montrealers here now and none of us seems to have found a joe "source" recently.

What's going on? We have the legends, but thing have been quiet over there for a while now. I know that there's action-collection in Longueuil which had a few vintage figure last time I went...

Guys, I'm afraid we need to reorganise ourselves  

Scramble:
Reorganize ourselves how? If you mean set up connections with the States as a group to make sure we all acquire our Joes at fair prices, I'm game. I was hopping for at least three Troops Builders, but am having trouble getting a single one. And I'll be damned if I don't get a gaggle of the comic three-packs.

If you mean pressuring Legends to carry more supply, I'm not really up for it. All collectors have different tastes. I'd only be interested in vintage figs at reasonable prices and new RAH style. I doubt Legends would jump at the chance to meet our individual needs, nor do I think we'd get deals as good or quality as dependable as we can get through trades and direct purchases.

And if you want to open a Joe themed store, I'd say good luck, I'll support you all I can as a customer, but I can't invest in that kind of thing right now.

So what did you mean?

Redmao:
actually I have no ideas...

I sure dont want to open my own store nor wish to pressure the Legends. I know they have already enough troubles to get the actual lines. As for vintage, they do buy some occasional collections once in a while, but thats it. I've heard of another store in Montreal that opened recently, but I forgot the name...

I think that we'll have to rely on online store for our vintage needs.

BHMike:
I think Joe is something on a small scale for Legends.
I know Steve and them are more into Star Wars, so that could be why they don't seem to get much - then again - I've never been there ......... and only met Steve and Jose once.

Jeez Redmao, I never realize your avatar had an animation! Caught it out the corner of my eye and thought I`d gone mad. Damn ninjas always messing with my head.

But more on topic, I think we could start a Montreal trade group. Start a mailing list between us and share our lists of wants. Whenever we happen upon something on someone else`s list, we let them know about it.

I`m liking my idea. I`m so smart. :)
