Just a heads up that the dealer link for the form is incorrect. I figured it out to be this:http://www.canadianjoecon.com/2009dealer.pdf  not the one in the news letter.

Very cool!

I'm getting interested in the customizing aspect.  My brother is in the Canadian Armed Forces and used to enjoy GI Joe back in his day (he's in his mid 30s, now) - I think a custom figure of him might be a cool gift, some day.

That worked thanks. I probably shouldn't do things at 3am.

I love these newletters btw. They look professional and are a great read. Nicely done guys. I was wondering if you need any help with future issues? I'm a graphic artist and love to do stuff like this too. I understand completely though if you already got your bases covered. Each issue looks fantastic.

Merry Christmas!

wow wow wow, if there was a bowing similie face i would use it - let's try - :bow:

Another great issue, admittedly I haven't read everything yet, just Mike's editorial and Ryan's article - mostly because the word "nostalgia" struck me immediately.  Really well written article and very thought provoking - about a toyline can you believe that!? 

I have to admit, this recent re-invention/re-focus to the Sunbow cartoon-era is a true godsend for me personally.  Finally after 23-24 years I can aquire cartoon accurate G.I. Joes and it's thrilling!  I know this wave wouldn't last very long, Resolute is coming in and the movie is around the corner - but for a brief moment in the history of G.I. Joe toys, I get a childhood dream come true!

You shouldn't get an error. It's the same link as the one Stealth posted. Try it again....


I'm glad everyone still enjoys it - feel free to promote it in your signature sections at other sites, or even start up a thread informing people to check it out. It can only get better with more readers.... who knows, maybe more reader submitted articles will find their way into it as a result! :-)
