General Joe Talk / Re: C'mon guys, no one wants to talk Toyfair?
« on: February 13, 2013, 01:03:56 PM »
The Mauler and Whale are quite possibly my #1 and #2 favourite vehicles. I really dug the Skystriker and bought a pair; I'll definitely have to keep an eye out for a Tomahawk or two so the above two just seem so logical. Here's hoping they continue the re-issue/re-make hot streak. I really think vintage box art would benefit these vehicles (like they've done with Star Wars). These toys are iconic and there are so many people out there who might be strolling the toys isles with their kids and remember just how awesome these toys were and decide to pick them up to spark interest in a new generation. Maybe that's wishful thinking but I don't think it could hurt as the original art has always been incredible.

Still cool. Thanks for the pics. I'm digging those AVs too.

Where did he find them? I'd like to grab a checkpoint alpha.

I just hope we see the Tomahawk released here (and Kreo for that matter). The Tomahawk's packaging is not bi/trilingual and it does have United States decals. Additionally, I paid something like $110 to preorder and ship 2 Sky Strikers so I won't be going that route again.

Items Wanted / LF: Killer Whale Hovercraft Box
« on: August 20, 2012, 02:41:26 PM »
Looking for a Killer Whale Hovercraft box. Can be either Canadian or American version. I'm in the process of restoring my original Whale and I'd like to give it to my brother (with the box) for Christmas. There's a picture of us on Christmas morning (probably '85) with our new Gi Joe vehicles, one of which was the Whale. I'd like to recreate that scene. If you have one for sale or know someone that does I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks

Hello,

Looking for a 1984 Zartan file card with the psychological profile in good condition. Also looking for various complete with file card figures from 1983-1985.

Thanks.

Ontario / Re: POC/30th and 12" figures at Winners
« on: June 19, 2012, 10:39:52 AM »
Same. I've had no luck with the figures. I'd like to pick up a couple of Techno Vipers too. Not sure what other figures are in these cases but I've checked 5 different Winners and found figure remnants (Duke, SE, and and the packaging for FireFly) at only two stores and just Black Dragons at the others.

*Sorry mods, please move to Winners thread*

All Across Canada / Re: TRU Sale on GI Joe this week

Great sale. Most TRUs I've seen have had quite a bit of stock. I went a little crazy :-) I guess I've been missing the days of RoC when joes were plentiful.

My tally so far:

Jungle BATs: 2 - I left at least 15+ on pegs
Blowtorch: 1 - Pegwarming something fierce
Hawk: 2 - Moving decently, but not hard to find. I might pick up a couple more to use as generic troopers
Steel Brigade: 7 - My favorite figure of this wave. I've left quite a few on the pegs.
Cobra Trooper: 14 - My second favorite of this wave.
Cobra Commander: 0 - Second biggest pegwarmer after BT.

I've also seen a few wave 4 Dukes, but no other figures.

Also picked up a Captain America (Supercombat) and a Red Skull. The same special applies on all Marvel figs.

OB

Went to three stores. Couldn't find one.

Received my shipping notice this morning and then a couple hours later they arrived. That was quite a surprise. The shipping box was in terrible shape but everything inside was great. They sent via Fedex so I didn't get charged taxes/duties thankfully.
