    Ive been dissapointed with the London show both times i went.  Its much smaller then the other shows and mainly deals in hockey cards and hotwheels(lots of dealers).  There are not many mom and pop tables(garage salers) where you get most of the deals from.  Of the 90 or so tables i could only find a handfull of any gi joe items and one Radio shack soundwave and some pretenders Transformers.  If i was to be in the neigbourhood again i would go;  all there is to lose is $4.00($2.00 entrance/$2,00 parking).  It would kill and hour anyways.  :)  Ive always wanted to hit the Woodstock show but weather, Laziness(sleeping in) and buying something previously on Ebay has thwarted any attempts thus far.

ake that back man!!!  ;-)
I LOVE the woodstock show (not for Joes mind you), I've never been to one that I didn't spend at least $50-$100.00 at.

There's always some 'farmer guy' with old stuff (megos, fisher price, star wars, etc) and prices it cheap. - Not always the same guy mind you - but still.

There's one in two weeks I think?.... April 1st. I plan on going = again. ;-)

I went - not looking for anything - mainly to put out flyers for the Joe Meet.

The $122.00 Speeding ticket I got on the way there enforced that I didn't buy anything.

I dropped off flyers, then pretty much headed home.

Mind you, I did still pick up two Joker figures. :-)
