General Joe Talk / 5 packs on sale at some Walmarts. $15
« on: September 12, 2009, 09:18:08 AM »
As the title says.
I found the 5 packs (Joe/Cobra) on sale at Hwy 27 & 7 Walmart today for $15. The MARS 3 pack was down to $20.
I don't know if this is going wider, but it probably wouldn't hurt to look in on your local Walmart.

General Joe Talk / New?? Viper and BAT 5 packs.

Well it looks like the Viper 5 pack is back, and we get a nice way to army build the BATs. No word on whether these are actually going to see the light of day at retail, but I am really hoping so.
qucik addition:
So far the prevailing theory is that these are like the "WAVE 14" figures. Samples that somehow got pretty far along, but won't see the light of day since ROC is the prevailing theme and these have 25th all over them. The Viper pack was seen awhile ago and this set still has the old wrists and no chrome.

Items Wanted / Looking for 2 Sky Hawk guns.
« on: September 08, 2009, 08:15:04 PM »
Hey guys, I am looking for 2 Sky Hawk guns. The original 80s version, not the new 25th "Ghost Hawk"
I don't really have anything for trade, so if you have 1 or 2 let me know what you want for them.
Thanks.

Yearly CanJoeCon Discussion / Enough with selling sets. Let's see yours!!!
« on: August 31, 2009, 05:24:36 PM »
Mods feel free to move this thread. I thought I would start it out here.
Anyway, we see/hear about sets going on Ebay or for sale mostly. How about we start showing off what we have on display.
Here is mine, with souvenirs from travel (Bermuda, Panama) and some alcohol:

General Joe Talk / Ahh the memories.
« on: August 02, 2009, 07:37:09 AM »
Just sitting here eating some cereal watching gi Joe on tv (teletoon retro). So sweet!!!
I've noticed that the show was very up to date with technology and mentioned a lot of things that have come into mainstream today. Also there were a lot of little mentions/scenarios that were more "adult" than we would see then.

Items Wanted / Looking for 7 pack boxes in Toronto area (Extreme Conditions or Cobra Island)
« on: July 28, 2009, 08:34:45 PM »
Hey all.
If anyone has boxes and plastic inserts from the Extreme Conditions or Cobra Island sets and don't want them anymore I would be willing to take them off your hands.
I am looking for people in the Toronto area who I can meet up with to avoid shipping costs, etc.
Thanks in advance.

General Joe Talk / Anyone going to thr Joe Con in KC?
« on: July 28, 2009, 04:36:53 PM »
Just thought I would ask.
I'm about 95% that I am going, so I thought I would ask and see if any of the JoeCanuckers were planning on going as well.

General Joe Talk / Oops. Proof reading/editing mistake (Hasbro)
« on: July 04, 2009, 10:31:17 AM »
Sorry I don't have a pic, but I didn't have my phone with me, and I wasn't going to pay $24.99 for a Snake Trax w/Scrap Iron.
So if anyone in Canada can grab a pic and post it to show what I mean, please do.
Anyway, I was at TRU and they had the display for ROC out. Everything was fine until I saw the Snake Trax w/Scrap Iron.
At first I thought it might have been me just misreading it, then maybe it might have been one box, but no.
EVERY Snake Trax box (multilingual) has the name and then "with/avec/con ACRAP IRON!!!"
I don't know why, but I couldn't help but laugh at the mistake. Mostly likely due to my juvenile sense of humour.
As I said, it was on the multilingual boxes, so I don't know if the same mistake will appear on the English only boxes.

General Joe Talk / GI JOE: ROC comic adaptation #1
« on: July 03, 2009, 03:10:45 PM »
Well I read the first issue of the comic adaptation.
I have to say, if this is faithful to the movie, then the opening 20-30 minutes of the movie should be pretty good action and story. I of course won't spoil it for anyone, but we get some good character development combined with some great action.
Also, SE looks to be pretty bad ass right away.

Ontario / ROC Figures at Walmart
« on: June 26, 2009, 07:18:11 PM »
SOmeone I trust has posted a sighting on another board of ROC figs and vehicles at the Walmart at Jane/Hwy 7 in Toronto (Vaughn). Little to far for me to check out, but I trust the sighting.
