Hi All,
Sadly, I only have 1 picture to display, because I only started
collecting last month.
Due to my severe back injury, I can no longer work, and my
doctors have all suggested that I need something to focus on
that will help take my mind off of the constant pain.
I have always loved Gi Joe since I first played with the AT Joes
back in 1973, which are all gone sadly, so I thought what better
thing to do than start collecting Gi Joe action figures and toys.
So far I only have the 2010 POC Steel Marauder Mech Suit.
I can't figure out how to upload pics from this forum page.
Can someone please explain how to do that.
Thank you
Dale

What lines do you collect? I might have some things you could have for free to get your collection off the ground. Depends if you are a perfectionist on completeness/condition! ;D
We're not too far away.

:) OMG Grunt 4 MVP.
I don't know what to say. I'm not used to this type of kindness.
It absolutely doesn't matter to me what line/condition at all.
I would be extremely grateful to you for anything you could
pass along. What a boost it would be.
Thank you so very much

No worries. I mostly have "A Real American Hero" stuff. A couple newer things maybe. Shoot me a pm, to lmk if you're able to drive and we could meet somewhere, or else we'll find a time I'm passing through. (I don't want to get your hopes up too much with visions of 'treasures' - just some stuff to set up or play around with! One piece sounds so sad and lonely!!!)

Something else to consider Bulman is the FREEBIE TABLES at the Canadian Joe Con. They're always a huge hit and I've seen some complete items come out of it as well.

i managed to complete 2 phantom x19s out of parts from the free table ;D
-
I clean out all my unwanted figs and vehicles on the freebie table! I think there is only one rule with the freebie table though... Only kids are allowed to pick items off the table for the first hour or so, then we adults have full access to it. I remeber there was a bin of figures there as well! Good times to be had at the CJC!
-
WOW. Something for free still in the world.
Catch me, I'm fainting.................lol
That's way too cool. Thanks for the info
Cheers
Dale

hey i still need that one too, where did she find it?
-
I think she got it at Toys Toys Toys at the Eaton Centre
-
it's good to see a new collector start out, like you an injury and a need for a hobby led me to toy collecting, my good lady brought me 5 action force figures just over 2 years ago and that's where I started, as you go if you need my help at all please let me know.
-
That mech is a great start.. lmk if you're looking for more PoC stuff.. there's a lot of them around here! I'm sure you're looking for a wv.3 SS eh? ;D
-
Thanks for all the encouragement folks. You have to start somewhere eh?
The good thing is that there is a lot available out there to pick from.

Very nice, you are starting to get a great collection!
-
Thanks. It will take a while, but I have lots of time.
-
thats the start to a nice collection, do you only only want carded stuff, or loose also?

A great gesture like this deserves a Timbit: +1
!!!

LJ you are always rewarding kindness! I wish I was more like you!
-
I really don't care if it's MOC, or loose really.
The MOC new that I buy will stay that way,
but it would be fun to have some loose to play
around with.
-
Hey Bulman, did you find the Cobra Deviant? It would look great alongside the Joe Mech..
-
Sadly, No, I still haven'et found that darn Destro figure.
However, I did get these. Yipee

Very Nice... You are starting to have a good collection!

Thanks Bandonov. I very happy with it so far. :)

Hey Dale-
I think you love and passion for Joe that is something that keeps you busy with time off. I can relate. I have crohn's disease and a chronic pain condition, and between doing Dio's and just poking around the house at my joes, and looking online it keeps me going.
It's more then just a hobby...it's a passion...I think Joe is always a very positive thing...I'm new here as well and already I can tell the people here are super nice...hey after all it's Canada!...
I don't have much to be able to give, as I'm still just getting set up with the Pursuit of Cobra stuff...that Mec you Got is a nice haul. But I've decided to stop spending on the New stuff and go after the old stuff. I'm a bit picky but that comes with it all.
Anytime man you need a joe friend, I'm here...health is something allot of people take for granted. Stay Strong and Frosty bro!
Would enjoy seeing more of your collection when you get the time :D
YO JOE!

Crohn's, huh? That's too bad. My sister had 6 inches of intestine taken out when she was 17. No fun at all.
-
yeah I'm after having numerous operations....where my bowel ruputured. How is your sister doing? Been living with it now for 11 years and a year or more with fibromyalgia.
Dale if there is anything I can do to help, drop me a line...I'm here to help. Like you I've got a nice start to a collection. People on here are hands down THE best people....I wish I could meet them all.
Is there anything you can do so that I can see the pics of your collection? it seem that all the links have broken.
Wishing you the best in health, peace and all things JOE :)
