Your Con Haul Thread!
« on: June 20, 2011, 11:13:03 AM »

I'm always curious to hear what people picked up, and everyone is always eager to share. Post lists, pics or anecdotes!

I got:
Filecards for my collection - Tan grunt, Hawk, Alley Viper, Road Pig, Nullifier, Skidmark
1984 Storm Shadow re-sealed on card
Action Force Roadblack MOC
Plastirama Airborne/Condor on card, Stormshadow w silver accessories & card
Funskool Ripper, Windmill, Lifeline, Red Dog all on card
Snake Eyes mini figure
Night Force Shockwave, Tan grunt, Skidmark
Spanish Countdown MOC
$2 figs: Rock N Roll, Cutter, M Bison, Firefly, Sagat, TeleViper, Ace, Beachhead, Super Trooper
GI Joe Carrying Case
The Convention Set
Vehicle parts to complete: Triple T, Conquest, Tomahawk, Battle Platform, Water Moccasin, SNAKE, Dragonfly
Clear cases for MOC figures

...and picked up some comics from Bounty Hunter Toys that I'd ordered before the con.

Awesome time! Let's hear what you guys found!

I picked up:

4 x POC Alley Vipers
Budo (1988)
Stalker (25th Dark Green camo)
Air Viper (25th Strato Viper)
Stiletto (from LJ)
Battle Force 2000 Pulverizer
Sky Hawk w/ Lift Ticket (25th)

Ultimate Guide to G.I. Joe (from Mark Bellomo of course)
Code Name Blast Off DVD from Ron and Tristan Rudat

Some prints from Jason Edmiston

and my favourite of the show...

I bought a panel from Valentine DeLandro, it was from G.I. Joe Declassified #3, the very last page.  It is the picture at Shooter's funeral, and the Joes are dressed in their dress uniforms in the rain.  Val gave it to me for an amazing price.  He had lots of great art available at the show.  



I know someone got him to do a commission of an Alley Viper.   I would love to see a picture of the final work (if you are a board member, and don't mind sharing)

The only thing I wanted to buy was a POC Light-Light.  Didn't see one on Saturday.  I ended up caving and getting from a ebay BIN.

So in the end' i ended up buying

- two figures from POC wave 4 via Hal.
- POC Wave 5 and 6 via KuuKuuSon.
- KuuKuuSon`s guidebook for the new Joe stuff
- Operation Blast Off documentary

I also won two of the cancelled vehicle sets, in which I gave one set away to Morgardee.  Got a Bellomo`s second GI JOE reference book in return.  Plus Dave helped me with the GIJCC convention stuff.   Also ended up with a second Joe con convention set.  Trying to trade it but no luck in terms of getting stuff I want back in return.

That's too bad.  I had an extra one in the car but forgot to get it for trade.

I bought page 6 maybe, it's the one with Shooter in camo, looking through binoculars at the top, and the team assembled in the communications room in the middle.
Couldn't believe how affordable these were...

That's a great panel that you bought, by the way.
I was keen on getting one that included Shooter, but also wanted the original team. That was tough, given that they didn't really interact.
Yours is a great example. If you have the comic handy, check mine out too - I bet you'd dig it.

That's great to hear.
I'd like to hear what the dealers thought of this years' Con too...
I would have thought it was slow to start, but one of my friend's said it was great, right from the 9am entry.

This it?


You can see all of Valentine DeLandro's art at http://http://www.comicartlinks.com/for_sale/vd.html.  I got the opportunity to sit and interview him, for my column I write at Comic Book Daily.  It was a real pleasure to meet him again.

Yep, that's it. Couldn't believe how reasonable they were - less than the listed prices.
