Title: Bought my 3rd FLAGG today
Post by: Prince de Lu on May 29, 2011, 07:28:19 PM
Yes I did...

Back in 1985 I got the FLAGG for xmas, gave all my joes to a kid I knew in 1994 when I left my parent's home, including the FLAGG.

Around 2002, I bought a 99% complete FLAGG, a skystriker and a couple of other things, from Legends for 90$, sold it a couple of month later to a fellow collector, because of space problems and pressure from my ex-girlfriend. ;-)

Today I went to Legends to buy the FLAGG they acquired a couple of week earlier from I don't know who, a Joe/SW collector from montreal I think.

This one I'll keep...  just a story I wanted to share

Congrats on the find! May I ask how much you paid?

They have a nice selection.. I bought 2 figures recently from them, an 85' Snow Serpent and an 87' Techno-Viper in MLC condition. 10$ each!
Hey Prince, any pic of that Flagg?

I'll try to build the monster tonight and post pictures tomorrow. Yesterday I washed everything except the 2 big deck plates.

Awesome life choice!

I had one but sold it before I could even set it up....
Recently got a 2nd one and set it up that day. Now I'm busy amassing a worthy crew!

I have seen this store bandy, and i must say it is awesome, and so much more then just GI Joes, and reasonably priced on most items, defiantly worth the stop, if your in the area.
