General Joe Talk / Well holy crap..... I can get the DTC stuff!?
« on: November 02, 2005, 10:10:12 AM »
I am holding off ordering any more stuff from the US stores, in hopes that I will be able to pick it all up via Mike.
The vehicles would rock, even if you only brought in 1 case of each.  I am sure you would be able to sell these in the store if you didn't pre-sell-out.

Saw the Jungle Humvee and the stealth jet today at ToyRus in Mississauga, they had what appeared to be another case of them. 6 vehicles in total.

Those are really cool - but how come Cobra doesn't get to hang out in that cocktail bar?

Ontario / VvV Single Packs at TRU Yonge/Eglinton
« on: October 28, 2005, 08:43:56 PM »
Not a big deal - I have one from the two packs, and if I found one of the single carded figures it was just a bonus.  Thanks for the offer though.

All of the ToyRus's that I have been to are always sold out of the Tele-Viper.
Either it was seriously short packed or there is an army builder grabbing this in the GTA, or worse yet - there is a scalper picking them up.

Ontario / Marvel Legends 10 & 11 at TRU Yonge/Eg

The last couple of days, I have found 2 or 3 Cyclops, and 1 Angel figure - they were at the ToysRus in Brampton.

I already picked mine up, so now I am looking for another set of variants to open and start working towards my second complete Sentinal.

Ontario / Where to find TF G1 Reissues?
« on: October 22, 2005, 09:37:20 PM »
I was at the ToysRus in Brampton today - they had nothing but Hoist - and they had about 15 of him.  Didn't check the price as I remembered you already had that figure.

Will probably be at the ToysRus in Oakville this weekend also, so if I see any, I will let you know.

I agree?  What the hell!  A chance to pick them up locally.  You email should have failed from the overload.

If the RHINO or ROCC could be available I would also grab those too.

I will spread this around to as many places as I can.  I don't want to loose the chance of not having to mail order my toys!

I will pick up whatever you can get.
I already ordered Wave 1 of the DTC stuff, but I would love the Wave 2/Vehicles/Comic Packs  all that great stuff.

Sign me up

I am on board.

Did I mention that I am interested in buying some of these things for a toy shop in the Hamilton area?

Ontario / DTC wave 2 @Silver Snail
« on: October 18, 2005, 09:08:34 PM »
If he did, he would get my money.
So far I have been going with SmallJoes but I would rather keep local business going rather than send it to the US.
Silver Snail is tempting, but most of their stuff is over priced and the location sucks for me.

General Joe Talk / GI Joe cards 1986
« on: October 18, 2005, 08:09:14 PM »
That is about all i have as well. I think I picked these up at my local Becker's back in the trading card days of the late 80's.
But I never completed the set.

General Joe Talk / DO NOT got to G.I. Joes on Yonge street in Toronto.

That is the funniest thing I have read in a long long time - I am sorry, but I was also unable to take your conern serious until after 15 minutes of side splitting laughter.

I think the shop you are talking about is called Planet Hobby - it is somehow connected to the shop in Square One, Mississauga  by the same name (are the owners brothers)
It may also have been named at one time Grey Legion, they got in trouble with the word Legion in their name by the Canadian Legion and later changed it to Grey Region, I think they may have also at one time in the late 80's early 90's had a comic shop in the mall on Upper James & Mohawk? in Hamilton that now has a Zellers in it (that is if that mall is still there)
Or all of the above history might be complete crap that I have been mistaken about for the last 5 or 6 years.
