plus one Grunt pack because someone gave me the idea of putting Grunt's head on a classic style body (couch *raptor* couch).

looks way better like that, but I used an extra Zap to give him original arms and waist. The only thing that you have to watch is that the arms aren't all compatable, and that you can only take them apart about twice before the soft plastic strips in the screw holes.

I really like the look of grunt's head on that body, even if it does seem a little thin for his torso.

And why Couch? Not Cough?

Gah! So I can't spell.

To be fair, I didn't expect Samko/Miko to have a huge assortment of GI JOEs this year.  I actually like army builders this time around and I am considering getting a small Electric EEL army.

Strange to see the Ice Saber and the Comic Packs there - weren't these hard to find at retail in the US?  And now they are at a liquidation warehouse?

Did anyone happen to notice how much the HIss 4 was?  I picked up a couple last year, and might pick up a couple more if the price is right.

With all the complaining you did today about 'lack of room', you better just trade off that Lumat figure to be so you can make room for your new Hiss Tanks.  :shifty:

Hiss IV tanks are 10 CAN at Miko.  Even at that price, they are a rip off.  A butt ugly vehicle.

Everything that they still have that they had last year is the same price this year. No more spytroops 2 packs though. I wonder where they went?  They had tonnes left right before they closed. I was hoping that they'd clear em out a a buck a piece. ;-)

I miss counted my army builder sets when I was picking up some figures from Miko and since I army build in sets of 3 I'm short one Bat/Snow Serpent set. If there is a chance that anyone is in one of those stores and they see an extra set, could you please pick it up for me? I'm an 1 1/2 hour drive away and that's a far way to go for one set of figures.

Got you covered Dave on the Bat/Snow Wolf pack.  

I figured am going to use the extra comic packaging to put the new DTC comic packs (as they have black packaging).  Might as well as the previous comic packs were in green.

I'd had that thought too, but I'm also going to be doing some custom comic packs up. Heck, if you guys save me your backings, maybe I can do the whole run up. ;-)
