That is the one, I couldn't really believe that it was at ToysRus in Canada.
Still doesn't make sense in my brain.

Off Topic / Only @ Target @ Toysrus
« on: July 26, 2006, 01:53:59 PM »
I was at the TRU at 427 and the QEW today, and the weird thing was they had only 1 - Target exclusive Snow Speeder.
I would have put this in the sightings section, just I thought this was really weird. If this was a returned product, why would any TRU employee take this back? it has a HUGE Only @ Target logo printed right on the front of the box?
If this was shipped to the TRU in Canada, why would the Only @ Target logo be on the box? Very strange. It also didn't ring in on the price scanner.
Since I am in the process of moving, I had to pass on this one, so it is still there for anyone else who might be interested.

Items Wanted / Black Ice or Joe Canuck....

I have to agree, my Joe Canuck figure would be the last figure I would part with, simply because of the people/place and time invovled with this figure.

General Joe Talk / GI JOE legend busts

I really like the first series of Joe Busts that came, never bought them as I didn't really have anywhere to display them, but these, the more I look at them, the more I really dislike them, at first I jus thought they were awkward looking, now I really truly detest them.
Snake-Eyes and Beachhead don't look as bad as the others, but there is no way I would even consider buying any of them.

I have been casually looking for a brown Commodore 64 as well - and funny enough I also have atleast 1 extra monitor for it.
Sad thing is there is no way I could pay more than $40 for it. I have seen them go on ebay for over $150, but I just can't part with that much money for something I only want to play Jump Man on!

Are you suggesting that I camp out in from of a drop off bin if I want a "new to me" Commodor 64?

General Joe Talk / painted skin vs bare plastic
« on: July 15, 2006, 10:12:05 AM »
Any of the new figures that do have painted skin look terrible.
The 2000-2001 figures that have the right colour plastic look amazing in comparison.

General Joe Talk / Plastic crack

I would have to agree - my figures didn't fair well at my parents house - NO AC and no humidifier, however since they are now in a climate controlled environtment, and I have a humidifier in the next room - there has been no visiable signs of aging or yellowing! And I think it is all because of the humidifier.

General Joe Talk / Vehicles - toys or playable model kits?
« on: July 15, 2006, 10:08:48 AM »
I hated having to soak decals - one of the main reasons why I never really like model building. All of the really amazing models always seemed to require some ungodly method of putting stickers on.

I don't go to many, but the ones I have been to have been a void for any 80's related toys - actually as far as that goes - they have been a void for anything that I would be interested in from any recent decade.
No Tranformers
No He-Man
No Marvel Legends
No Batman or DC stuff
No Joe stuff
I don't think people sell their kids toys the way they used to - or maybe people just hold onto them thinking they will make it rich some day?

I have been tempted to pick up the second wave of these - Cap/Doom/IronMan/Torch, but at $10 a pop, and the poor QC, I am really having a hard time dropping $40 - especially when I can go to BountyHunter at the moment and get so much more for the same amount!
The other problem I have had with these, is there are Chase figures - and I have never seen any of them! Really annoying, get hooked on a line, and then not have a hope in hell of completing it without going to a scalper or ebay!@#
I looked at the game that came with my starter sets, and it didn't really appeal to me, I didn't really "get" the shoot the other figure to knock them down part.
