Wow, almost a whole month since I've been here...  :-[

I've hit a bit of a wall, collection-wise. There's been nothing new in-store on my local circuit. So I've found a correlation between my in-store spending and online spending: the more I find in-store to buy, the more I want to keep buying, regardless of the where and how. Hmmm.... Well, at least I have my vintage collection to keep me semi-content! :P

How likely are we to see a 30th Night Raven based on the original, much like the Sky Striker; or did the RoC version kill it?

Are there other sub-teams in the works? Iron Grenadiers or Night Force would theoretically be well recieved...

Jinx is up. http://www.gijoeclub.com/images/2011/jinxFweb.jpg

Another must-have subscription figure, but where is her outfit from? Renegades? (She was in it, right?)

I really wish I could open 'em all, really I do. But since I don't have the room right now, it just wouldn't be fair to them to be opened and not displayed. I like to think of them in suspended animation, waiting to be deployed.  ;D

When I do move into a bigger place, I'll have a whole room (or two) dedicated to my toys. Then I plan on taking a week or two to open everything and display it. It will be epic!

Hi Everybody!

I've been told by martin-montreal that this is were all the cool kids are, so I decided to sign up.

As a kid I had lots fo Joes. My aunt was a manager at Toys n Wheels (anyone here remember that old store?) and she used to let me preview all the GI Joes before they hit the shelf. I got to pick out the ones I wanted, and she'd buy them with her discount. Unfortunatly certain circumstances occured which permanently removed me form my old toys.

Fast forward to spring 2009. I stumbled across some 25th figures in a local drug store. My immediate reaction nearly gave me whiplash. I bought all I could, then went to the local TrU and bought some more. Then RoC came out and the cycle repeated itself, and continues to do so every payday.

I mostly collect the newest stuff, 25th and on. My favs have been PoC and 30th, and am currently troop building all Troopers and Vipers. Most of my stuff is MOC / MISB, at least until I get a bigger place then I'll probably have a hard time with that, lol!
