General Joe Talk / Re: Where can I find Mark Bellomo's book?

I checked the publisher (Krause) and they went bankrupt... there is probably some issues with the rights preventing it to be reissued. Oh well, I am going to a local toy show sunday. Let's see what I can come home with. ;)

I have the 2nd edition, which is fine by be.

Ripcord was always copilot with Ace in my book... Although it's very nice to have a new addition this late in the game. Otherwise, Duke/Snake eyes and Scarlett were piloting together.

Thanks a lot! I will look into those options... I will look him up and see if he has extras. should have bought it when I got the chance, but my focus was elsewhere. Oh well, thanks again.

Good question... I think the movies turned off a few fans - perhaps origin is bringing new fan base. I think there is nothing compared with the originals so if you can track those down it's probably the best for nostagia. I was eyeballing this set as well, but 50 is too much for me. I prefer putting this on a complete snake eyes or storm shadow.

I looked online but prices are crazy... I have the 1st and 2nd edition, but missed out on the 3rd. Anyone knows if it's going to be reissued?

Bishop - is the quality not good? For the 30th skystriker I thought quality was ok. Different type of plastic but I didn't think it was that bad.

It's ok, I have the vintage one and the plastic is harder. The new one is made of softer plastic.

Good to hear it's a new mold... ;) I am still on the fence.

Same here... space IS an issue too. While I am so glad so it redone, I have the 25th anniversary one and I am afraid the quality is the same.

Haslab is crowdfunding the skystriker... cool, however, they are returning to o-ring figures!!! I am so excited to see new o-ring figures such as pilot scarlet, crew staff, etc.

I did not play with the 6-inches, so I can?t say.... but it would have been cool to make a 3-pack of exclusive oring figures (billy, pythona, dr venom). This would have been fantastic.

I took out a few of my collection out as well (they are under my stairs as well). I can?t say I need another hiss or another awe striker,  but it?s fun to see those being made again. I might dust off my collection just for the fun of it.
