Black Ice custom on ebay
« on: May 30, 2006, 02:21:47 PM »

I was looking around on ebay and came across this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/GI-Joe-G-I-Joe-Cust ... dZViewItem

No it's not our Black Ice figure but Snow Job in black. I found it funny that the seller is located in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Anyone know the seller wolfe254?

Interesting. Looking at his other items, I can see that he's improving a lot with each custom. The Jinx is pretty cool.

Mind you, like some people :shifty:

Stop picking on me birdboy. I like enamels. The other paints I've used just start to feel sticky/tacky and rub off to fast.

So, uh, what brand of paint are you using? I'm willing to try other paints on smaller projects.

You look at this guy's Tripwire and tell me he doesn't work for Funskool.

I do like a couple of his figs, actually, especially that Airtight. And I don't think he's trying to horn in on our Black Ice. Just had the same idea, I guess.

I just found it odd that he is also from Hamilton, but I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time and it won't be the last I'm wrong.

I've got a spare Black Ice figure from the meet....... should I post him?

I planned on posting the 'official' Black Ice figure anyway at some point, so may as well do it now. (Including the links to Hawks review!).

What do you guys think?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I have a pretty good idea on who it is.    Mainly because I have a customer that WANTED a Black Ice but didn't want to come to the Joe Meet. Then again, I could be 100% wrong.

Someone should email him (via ebay) and invite him to JoeCanuck.

Imagine the shock he'd have to see OUR Black Ice figure! :lol:

Done. Invite just sent to him. Be nice to have another customizer back me up in the enamel debate.  :shifty:

If by post him, you mean mail him to me, then yes!

The plan was always this:

If I had one left over from the meet, he would go on ebay.

I owed some 'other' people favors, which is why they ended up with one as well. (Airtight, General Hawk for example).

This last one was always destined for ebay as a way to get 'some' funds for next years Joe Meet.

Sorry!
Mike

There's a thread on the YoJoe message boards about the figure as well. It's making the rounds now. :)

The seller (Jon) already responded to my invite. Says he'll check us out. Always good to have new blood on board.
