General Joe Talk / Re: G.I. Joe Action Figure Collector 5-Pack Wave 2 Case
« on: December 18, 2008, 08:34:07 PM »
Interesting.....

We've already seen the 2 other 5 packs. 

What could they be doing with the "Omega/Resloute" 5 pack?  Are we talking the same Duke, CC & Trooper?  Or new colours?  I figure the Officer will be the same as the trooper with some paint difference.  The BAT will be very interesting to see.  Are they going to give us a 25th updated BAT or something retooled and slightly different?

Sweet Sally Mugumbo!!!

Thank you Hasbro!!

Pay no mind to these heretics, this is great news.  I already have a PP Conquest, but a new one is always welcome.  Also, a chance to get the Tiger Rat?  I'm in. 

I figured Hasbro would try and use the molds again, and thankfully they did it with my two favourite subgroups.  I wish they would have used Skystriker instead of Wild Bill, but otherwise great news.

I wouldn't mind a little bit of a lull after Christmas.  Give everyone a chance to catch their breath and hopefully clear out the wave 1 vehicles clogging the shelves.

Honestly I don't understand the love this vehicle gets on the boards.  I don't think it looks particularly realistic or well proportioned.  I much prefer a bunch of their other vehicles. 

I picked up their Navy SEAL boat and I am almost finished customizing it for Cobra.  I saw the black F-22 and thought it was pretty sweet.  Also the Black Hawk helicopter is pretty good.  A couple of their smaller land vehicles are great as well, especially the one with the big rocket launcher on top.

Anyway, enjoy it, that is really all that matters.  I know that on Amazon they had another helicopter with the wide open underspace for cargo that some in the US picked up to customize for use with Cobra.  I would probably bite on something like that.

Customs / Since I can't find a customs thread. Here is my UBP custom.
« on: December 13, 2008, 08:35:59 PM »
I had some extra vehicles and figures that I decided to make use of with the UBP packaging.  So with a little customizing I have this set, the Crimson Guard UBP.

Here is the list of what is in the set:

1 Crimson HISS (Crimson Guard Sabotage) (2003?)
1 CAT II (Crimson Attack Tank) (2003?)
1 Crimson Flight Pod (custom 25th Anni. FP)
4 Crimson Guards (25th Anni. wave 5)
1 Fred Crimson Guard (25th Anni. comic pack w/custom Crimson Jet Pack)
25th Anni. Tomax & Xamot

I'll post more pics later.

Ah, but last year they stated it would be starting in Spring. We haven't really asked them again until this most recent one where they stated they WILL contact them.

Sorry Mike, I may be cynical, but I think you are reading too much into their answers.  They are purposely vague to prevent any problem from a legal standpoint.  This is just more of the same and quite frankly I don't see them having any more answers next time.

Quote from: "THE Mike?"
Oh, I don't know..... we should ask them one more last time in the next Q & A - something along the lines of "In the last JoeCanuck Q & A, you stated you would "follow up with HTS on this." - have you followed up and FINALLY, after 10 years of Canadians being shut out of purchasing from HTS have a solid definite answer as to WHEN they will start shipping to Canada?"

I mean, if we don't ask them to follow up in the next round of questions,  - then why ask at all?

Actually, if I have the time, I'll find the Q &A's from Snowtroopers, here and any other CND sites that have asked this question and include it as part of the question.

There's stuff I want on that site that I shouldn't have to ask others to get for me... and I'm not just talking GI Joe items.

I'm sorry but a follow up won't matter.  This has been ongoing for supposedly 10 years (I only know of about 5) and it hasn't changed.  I would rather not waste one of only 5 questions on a follow up question.  We all get it, they aren't going to do anything about it, otherwise they would have already.  Especially now that Christmas has come and gone.

Just did a deal with him.  Great communication and quick payment.  I would definitely recommend dealing with him in the future.

I can tell you on Christmas Day.  My brother-in-law bought it and the AT-TE for my nephews.

It should be pretty amazing to watch them when they see the size of the boxes.
