Title: Hello?
Post by: AlleyViper on January 04, 2007, 04:47:48 PM
Hello there, its been a long time since I've been around so I just wanted to say that I'm back and should be able to check in with some regularity. If anyone even noticed I wasn't around. But I was super busy with work, someone should have told me that TRU is crazy busy in the months before Christmas! Oh the overtime hours!  ::) ;D

I was actually wondering what the heck happened to you Adam!

Now that you got all that overtime money, book your flight for the Canadian Joe Meet!

Well so much for posting with some regularity since January.  ::)

There are a lot of new names around here. But I thought I could check in here and see how everyone was doing. I have been going through a dark ages with GI Joe. I can't remember the last time I bought some new Joe stuff. I can't remember the last time I was here or on Joecustoms. There seems to be a huge gap in Joe stuff that I can even remember wanting. The new stuff that is coming out, or may be out already, is nice but I don't expect it to come to Canada. I am tired of paying for shipping for all of my toys. I have been trying to keep up with Marvel Legends and can't even do that lately.

Also, after working for TRU for almost a year, I left, at the end of May. It was sad leaving. I wanted to work for them for so long, and then finding out that I did not like how they operated made it almost feel like finding out that Santa isn't real. Just a let down. Now I work for Giant Tiger. There is only one store in Calgary right now, but there are looking expand more store out West. They seem to be a better company to work for and are treating me well.

I think that is it for now, I can't think of much else to share.

Say what now? WHO???? Tell me it isn't so!!

I think alot of folks are on a "down" at some point in life Adam.
The 25th figures are apparently coming to Canada - so check them out, and pick them up if they interest you.

Oh, and hit this board more! LOL!.

Yeah man, we need some more updates.

And now that you work for GT you can start a lobbying campaign to get more PTE toys up here, including the base and the new A-10.

Agree with Raptor 100%. Get GT to get us more joe sized toys. That and more cheap Marvel legends.  ;D

Well stay tuned to your local GT for the S6 Dragonhawk in the next while but that is about for GI Joe stuff. I don't see anything coming for PTE or 3-3/4 scale Joes.
