Mine is probably going to be going up on ebay in the near future. It's an amazing set but I could use some of the extra bucks these guys are pulling in on ebay to put towards some things I need to do.

For Sale or Trade / Figure from "The Rise of Cobra"
« on: May 09, 2009, 01:27:47 AM »
I have one of the new figures from the movie which aren't due out in stores until July. I'm asking $18 for it(what I paid). It is 'Breaker' and is the exact MOC figure shown below.
Shipping would be extra(exact postage) unless you are in the Hamilton/Burlington area in which case I would be willing to meet up.
If you are interested, please shoot me a PM. I will be away from Sunday until Tuesday but will reply as soon as I get back.
Cheers,
Haggis

General Joe Talk / Re: Red and black cobra trooper are they bootlegs does anyone know for sure

$20 each.
At the end of the day you could get one red and one black for $30.
Looks like they're available on ebay. May be the same seller:

They should call these Hotcake troopers because that's how they were selling on Saturday. I was stationed next to the gentlemen who were selling these(and some other very cool Hong Kong goodies) and I'm pretty sure the only thing that sold in greater numbers may have been the exclusive Canadian JoeCon set.
This was a conversation I overheard about five different times between the sellers and different buyers:
"Do you have more of these?"
"How many do you want?"
"How many do you have?"
"How many do you want?"
and so on...
I had to ask a friend, who is far more Joe-savvy than I, what was so special about these particular loose troopers and he explained that they were really good bootlegs. I ended up buying one just out of sheer curiosity. The black ones were much more popular than the reds. They must have run out of tan troopers early if they were selling that colour also.

A great day out. I was selling but got to enjoy a bit of the festivities. Mark Bellomo was great to chat with and also the nice Hasbro lady 
. The Marauder folks were super cool giving away a free weapon with each purchase...amazing quality accessories. Picked up an exclusive, a couple of 12" repros, a foot locker, some comics, a bootleg, a prototype and a figure I'm not supposed to have yet 
.
Managed to sell enough to cover my purchases too!...always helps. Great meeting some of the members of this board and some civilians too.
Thanks to TheMike and the JoeCanuck team for a fine show. The Convention Centre seemed like a nice facility for the event.
Two thumbs up.
