Here's the catch.
You have to come and get it yourself, and there's no guarantee that it'll still be here when you get here.
Here's the deal.
I have a TON of Joe vehicles - some missing things like 1 or 2 missiles, some missing everything that can come off of it.
It's free. I'm clearing out the store right now, and these 'extra' boxes filled with items that I forgot about aren't going with me for two reasons.
1. I don't 'really' have the space for them.
2. I don't want to go through them again since I (apparently) did that once already.
They're out the back of the store (1104 Fennell Ave. East - Hamilton, ONT).
They're put in boxes, and just sitting there. If it rains - then they'll be in soggy boxes.
There's always the chance some punk could come by, trash them all, or burn them - just warning you.
So come and get them! I'll post again when they're all gone, but for TODAY, they will be there - and will be added to throughout the day!
Obviously this is only good for you if you're in the area..... ;-)
Mike
PS - And why did I put this in this section with a Sticky.... because I can. So you mods leave it here. ;-)

Or, hop on a plane. It's a one hour flight I think. ;-)

And yeah, there was SIX when I posted, SEVEN when I left.
I just popped back to the store to grab my wallet and noticed them gone.
There's most of a Bridgelayer in there.... that much I know. ;-)
Mike
PS - You left 'half a spirit' behind... the upper half... so he's not walking off anywhere anytime soon.
There might be more boxes on Tuesday Night - just a heads up for everyone. ;-)

I've been known to pick up boxes and boxes of incomplete vehicles and such over the years just 'in case' I could assemble some stuff. I've done VERY well doing so - having completed not one, but 6 Flaggs by doing this.
Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if someone could complete a G.I. Joe HQ, Rolling Thunder, Rattler, Night Raven, Tomahawk AND Phantom with the stuff I've put out.
;-)
See.... even after the store is closed I still give you guys a reason to come here!
LOL!
Sometime after 5pm....... that's when they'll be out. - I'll try to remember to make a post when it's done.

Mike and Radio Guy, you two rock.

You can have my Rattler shell if you can put it to good use. I've owned the thing for 15 years and never played with it once.
I'll transfer Wild Weasel to another plane.

Roadies work hard. You rock, Mike, because you're giving away boxes and boxes of stuff. Radio Guy rocks because he's giving the stuff away piece meal. You rock more because without you giving these boxes away, Radio Guy couldn't give away a share ergo his rocking is dependent on your rocking. But he could have used your rockingess and sat on it. Because he chose not to, he also rocks. Just less.

Oh, and about 15-20 minutes after you picked up the rest of the items, someone else came by as well.

Anyways I made my way to Hamilton to get some free Joe stuff, but I was 20 minutes late, someone got there before me and got 7 boxes of joe stuff. Ah well, you win some you lose some.
At least I got to meet the creator of this site, I didn't know it was him when he posted his free stuff post. And it was really cool of you to give that stuff away to the collectors.
Adieu!!

BTW, buying for the UK gets expensive really fast. I bought that thing for GBP 3.99 and shipping and it cost me over $20.00 Canadian. Mind you, I still had fun bidding on it and I like it.

The last day is Aug. 31st. I'll be there all day Sunday... well... in and out as I have to move some stuff from the back room to my basement (wall sleves, etc). PM me when you think you're coming and I'll shoot you my cel#.
