Ontario / Thanks CondorKnight!
« on: September 03, 2007, 11:12:39 PM »
Just letting you all know, though most of you Canuck Vets know this by now, but CondorKnight is great to buy from. 

I bought about 30 Joes from him off ebay and found out he lives in Mississauga so I picked them up from him personally, and it was good doing businness with him.

Just passing the word,

Thanks man!

gonna start to customize some of them tonight... ;D

The Plague Troopers extended roster:

For these guys I switched out 1 or both of their hands with microman hands to give them much better range of motion.

Last but not least, my favourite Plague Trooper, Maul:

Just put on a Darth Maul head on the Trooper body, the new hands definitely make this guy look more menacing.

His sword pack came with one of the more recent Snake-Eyes figures, and featured a great sculpt of a dragon on it.  This sucker took me hours to paint in that detail and was frustrating as heck but the end result was worth it I think. 


SIGMA6 Vehicles for 3 3/4 figures:

Just a bunch of mods which make these fantastic vehicles useable by RAH and Modern Joe figures.

First up is the firebat.  All I did was cut out the foot rests so that a figure can fit all the way in.  As most of you know only new figs as small as The Baroness fit in there well, but I think most of the older RAH Joes will fit in snugly.
Also added a front mounted cannon on the front for added firepower:

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0090.jpg

Dune Runner Redux:

I cut out all the extra plastic in the buggies hull so that a figure's legs can squeeze in.  Also made the doors swivel up and down for ease of access for figures. 

For modern figures, figures as big as bombstrike or smaller fit in very well.  but don't expect Barrage to fit comfortably.  RAH figures are generally Bombstrike's size, so they will fit in much better than the modern crew.

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0135.jpg

Also added the bazooka from the Night hummer and the gatling gun from the sigma 6 boat on the other for added firepower.  also mounted the two heavy machine guns from the night force hummer on the front of these buggies, so they definitely pack a punch in such a small size

Night Vamp conversion:

I had to cut out the seats that were screwed onto the car's body, than dremel down the height so that figures could get good head clearance.  If you notice the seats on my Vamps sit much lower than they do out of the box.  I had to sound it down so much that only a thin piece of the seat was left, then glued it back down.

These are impressive little vehicles with firepower to spare.

General Joe Talk / the faintest glimmer of the HMCS Flagg on the horizon
« on: August 14, 2007, 02:46:26 PM »
Hey all, you may remember my claims that I was going to build a Flagg from scratch more than a year ago. 

Well, a year has passed and nothing much has happened, except that all the preliminary work is done and im about ready to start building.
I just thought I might show you some proof of the fruits of my labour :)

Below are items that will go inside the Flagg:

The first are two scaled boats, the Cutty Sark and the Bounty, which are about the perfect size for the Joes.  I figure the smaller of the two will go in the Admiral's quarters, and the Sark will have a place in the library in the ship.

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0151.jpg
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0150.jpg
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0149.jpg

oh and that table will go perfectly in the admiral's quarters, great for dio shooting.

These remind me of Adama in Battlestar Galactica, who can be seen whittling away on a model boat in his free time. 
I picked these up at a Liquidation Center for about $2 each

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0155.jpg
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0154.jpg
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0153.jpg
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0152.jpg

The next is all the smaller nick nacks that'll fill the ship's interior.  file folders, scaled models, posters, old war gear (that shield will go up in the Admiral's quarters) etc. 


The following is the little mock-up I made using paper and the measurements for the actual ship done to scale.  The paper has been bent because its kinda old now, rest assured the real thing won't bend and warp like this...hopefully.

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0144.jpg
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0143.jpg

And finally the guts of this monster, the wood thats waiting to be cut and sanded for the interior.  So far I think this is enough for all whole crew deck, and a little left over for the tower structure. 

http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb29 ... 0_0148.jpg

I think I'll be able to start building within the next few months, as I start up my new career as a truck driver.  If I can get a week off in a month, I'll be a happy camper and be working on this big sucker.

when its done it should look something like this:

Ontario / recent trip to silver snail
« on: March 04, 2007, 01:39:05 PM »
Hey all, was down in TO on Friday, picked up some Joes.  The latest stuff they had were the Interrogator 6 pack and the Lady Jaye comic packs.  No new single packs, and from what the cashier said, they're not getting anything new for a while.  So that might mean nothing until the 25th anniversary figures. 

But thats a long way aways, hopefully they'll stock up before then.

Long live the snail clad in silver,
adieu.

General Joe Talk / wheres the next wave of Sigma6 stuff?
« on: February 06, 2007, 01:55:09 PM »
I know I've written about this before in the provincial forum, but I want to know if any of the new 2.5 vehicles are hitting Canadian stores yet.  The 2 mechs, the arctic vamp, and the cobra hiss are no where to be found. 

Has anybody seen them yet?  are they even going to be distributed in Canada???

Ontario / Wheres the second series of Sigma 6 Stuff???
« on: January 16, 2007, 12:19:02 AM »
Hey has anyone seen the new vehicles from the 2.5 inch line??
Im talking about the Hiss tank and those two mechs, Arctic Vamp (which looks awesome), etc.

It sounds like they're already hitting spots in the U.S. as far as I can tell from the boards, but I really want some damn Hiss Tanks! >:(
