*OFFICIAL* Post Your Latest Booty!! v2

[vespapilot79]

Got my first of many hall of heros in the mail today. Firefly. Now waiting for Stormshadow and my 10 BATS.

[silentdusty]

Well, I'm back from course, two months I won't get back again, but I picked up some goodies, the Wild Bill/Scrap Iron Comic pack, both GI Joe and Cobra 5 Packs, and when I got home I had a Cross Hair for the Outrider dio I'm working on, a near complete Canadian Thunder Clap (No figure, antenna broken), a canopy for my Tomahawk, a gun cap for my Cobra CLAW, missiles for my Skyhawk, and a helmet and backpack for my Footloose. :D

Additionally, on a trip to Halifax, I found the IJ Akator Temple playset at Winners for $15, too bad the vehicles wouldn't drop that low.

[Death_at_Midnight]

New additions:

New patrol boat, True Heros (i think)
Cobra Resolute Trooper x 4
Resolute 5 pack
Super Humvee (BSI type)
Microman Acrograb (might have mentioned in a previous post)
Cobra Commander (yet another one) with MASS Device element
Star Trek Uhura (needed another one)

[vespapilot79]

Got my 10 HOH BATS and SS and Firefly! Boosted my BAT army to 20! WOOT!!

[Self-Modifier]

I finally found the "Ghost Hawk" at Target the other day! I was beginning to think the thing was a myth!! I never owned one when I was younger... is this a brand-new mold? It seems a lot sturdier than I would've expected from a re-released 1983 mold.

Honestly, all the 25th Anniversary vehicles seem to be brand-new molds copying the original designs. Hence, they're sturdier thanks to more modern means of construction.
I don't actually OWN any 25th Anniversary vehicles so I could be wrong on some cases.

[Self-Modifier]

That could explain it! The only other 25th vehicle I own is the VAMP, and it's different in places from my original -- but I thought it was mostly re-tooling, as opposed to total re-sculpting. I should compare them more closely when I get home.

[Death_at_Midnight]

I think it's a bit of both. Some seem to be just retooled, others seem to be new molds. The water moccasin has some new looks on hatches, more foot pegs, etc. The HISS foot pegs are smaller to fit the smaller diameter holes. However it's confusing too b/c for instance the HISS doesn't allow a HISS Driver to fit nicely with the holdster, nor does the water moccassin allow copperhead to fit nicely. The copperhead that came with the thing does fit snuggly, but i'm talking about the one that came with the comic pack, b/c in my mind that's the original copperhead color... those greens. The original water mocassin has copperhead in those green/limegreen colors, so to me the comic pack copperhead represents what copperhead really looks like. Not the python patrol colors.

[Self-Modifier]

[QUOTE=Death_at_Midnight]...for instance the HISS doesn't allow a HISS Driver to fit nicely with the holdster...[/QUOTE]
That's weird, because my 25th HISS driver fits quite nicely in my 1983-vintage HISS tank! He's obviously a bit larger in there than an ARAH fig, but I have no problem fitting him in and closing the canopy.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Hrm, maybe I am doing something wrong. I just took out my last of the vintage HISS from '83 and tried to put in a 25th HISS Driver. I didn't try to force him in there. The holster keeps getting in the way. If I do force him in, then I'll be forcing/jamming that holster through, warping the holster flap.

Anyway, I think this is my very first HISS.. still has mud caked to it, and loads of bottle rocket burn marks. Oh the memories of terrorizing the Joes on Saturday mornings :-)

[Self-Modifier]

Hmm... I don't think I crammed the holster in. I'll look at it when I get home from work today, and let you know!

[Black Knight]

Ok, so I am sitting at the Disney World "Carribean Beach Resort" right now enjoying my much needed vacation. I am quite pleased to finally be able to check my mail and the site.

I also would like to say that I have purchased my very first Sigma 6 figure. I picked up Snake Eyes at a local collector store (not Vader's... his was closed that day) I am quite pleased with him... pics and such of my vaction to follow once I return home on the 19th.

Tomarrow I am heading over to downtown Disney to hit up a few shops and then back to the East Coast (Rockledge/Melbourne Area) and stop by Vader's store.

See you all then.

-John (Black Knight).

[Urban Saboteur]

John dude.. it sounds like your having a blast! :D

I just won an auction on ebay for a GIJOE figures & vehicles small lot, in the picture I can see:
Frostbite, Crimson Guard, Stalker, Short Fuze, Shipwreck, Clutch, Hawk, Quick Kick, Firefly, Destro, Roadblock, Alpine, Footloose, Buzzer, Wild Bill, Major Bludd, Gung-Ho, Cobra Soldier, Beach Head, Cobra Commander, Eels, Stinger Driver, Tele Vipers, Snow Serpent and weapons with an incomplete Night Attack Stinger.

The auction was competitive, and with 24 or so v1 figures i almost didnt win. the equivalent came to about £2 per figure which isn't so bad. Probably would of gone higher had all of them been complete.
Here is the link.
GIJOE lot (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=110385367097)

I cant wait to get this lot in and inspect them. :)

[Jay]

Holy macaroni.

Nice win there!

[Urban Saboteur]

[QUOTE=Jay]Holy macaroni.

thanks Jay!
i promise to post pictures when I receive the parcel :)

[Jay]

Well, today I received two nice packages.

One had a Mortal Kombat Liu Kang, an Urban 6-pack Firefly, a 1997 Snow Job (no gear for any of em) and a Devil's Due-style Comic Pack Storm Shadow (whose body will be used for a custom... while his weaponry went on my Greatest Battles Stormy).

The other package had two 2001 Laser-Vipers, two Comic Pack Red Ninjas, two Tele-Vipers (one with a busted crotch, sadly), a Crimson Guard Commander and a Storm Shadow Unmasked. Aside from Storm Shadow, and the Red Ninjas having their kama, none of them had any weapons.

Still, a nice haul for a day... I just wish this wasn't the second time I ordered a few Tele-Vipers only to find out one of them had a busted crotch...

[tycondrius23]

hahah holy crap dude I was gona bid on that one too lol
all I wanted was the stinger tbh
haha good haul
[QUOTE=Urban Saboteur]thanks Jay!

[General Jones]

[QUOTE=Urban Saboteur] Shipwreck, Clutch, Hawk, Quick Kick, [/QUOTE]

I think that is Breaker, not Clutch. Great score.

[Black Knight]

So, two more days til my vacation ends. :(

On a positive note I made it to the "Hobby House" (Vader's Store) and scored a Sigma 6 CC with Silver cape, a "Action Heroes" Snake-Eyes, and a few other things.

The store is coming along well and if I had the extra cash with me I would have probably ended up paying his bills for the next year with all the things I would have bought. His prices are really good and his selection is great too. Thanks again Dave, it was good to meet you.

[Sonneilon]

I haven't bought anything Joewise for awhile. I seem to be stuck buying Star Trek toys instead. Trying to get a full small scale MOC set and loose set. Need to find (another) Checkov (loose) and then an Uhuru (MOC). THen 2 Original Spocks, 2 Pikes and 2 Neros.

Word.

2 Nerds?

[Death_at_Midnight]

Just waiting for my orders to come in. In the meantime, I found some new Star Wars figures, bought another Princess Leia, and a Rebel Hoth soldier. The Hoth figure has potential for a small army build as use as some country's local attempt to resist Cobra in the Arctic.

Anyway, bought the last figure I need for a complete set of Star Trek: Scotty. I held up getting him since he's also included in the transporter set, which I intend to buy. I'll have have to buy some car parts so I'll have to wait on the transporter. Real Life issues, ya know, have a way to upset collecting.

[Prince Adam]

I haven't bought any little Joes in a long time. :( I think the last Joe product I bought off a shelf was the CH Firefly/Bazooka set, still haven't seen the second series of those.

[Sonneilon]

Ok.

2x Pike
1x Chekov

1x T-1

[Prince Adam]

Death, does that put you up to 22 blue Resolute troopers? :eek:

[Black Knight]

[General Jones]

This isn't Joe related, but I finally got a complete G1 Predaking. I really underestimated the size. :eek:

[rnrhero]

I got a 12" Rommel at Joetanta this weekend. Other then that I didn't buy anything but a Shirt.

[Death_at_Midnight]

[QUOTE=Prince Adam]Death, does that put you up to 22 blue Resolute troopers? :eek:[/QUOTE]


No, this is just accounting for the new recruits this week, leading up to my current total of 18 resolute troopers.

Next week there will be another 4 arriving, however.

[QUOTE=General Jones]Sure, I'll try to post one tonight. :D[/QUOTE]
Yeah, Predaking was huge! I never owned him myself, but I had a friend who did. He's far larger than any of the other G1 combiners.

Thanks for stopping by the store while you were here, super thanks for your purchase! Glad you made it back home safe, hope you had a good time. It was great to meet you and the wife and your daughter. Dave

[Prince Adam]

Just picked up a couple 25th Joes on clearance and this lot from BigBad:

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/images/products/out/large/C2110P0048.jpg

All for about $17 before shipping. I'm pretty happy. :)

[Death_at_Midnight]

What is that lot? Looks like a mix of things from various sets. Looks good too.

[Prince Adam]

It was just a junk lot I found on their site. The platform is from the '83 Joe hq, and a few parts are from the mortar and missle defenses sets. Looks like some accessory set weapons too.

[Flatline]

my Club Undertow Arrived At Work Today :d He Looks Great I Hope To Take Some Pics Today When I Get Home.

[Jay]

I just went and picked myself up the entire Hall Of Heroes set.

Storm Shadow and both Snake-Eyes might end up on my trades list, if anyone's interested.

[Outrider]

Nice haul! Those 2000-2001 GIJoe figures had some of the best decos ever used.
And that Big Bear redeco was a lot nicer than the original too, although it most certainly is not Lt. Gorky.

[Jay]

My haul for today: Indiana Jones german jeep and a single Cobra Para-Viper.

Really dig the jeep, and the few dio accessories it comes with (u-assemble cardboard box, three barrells and a roadblock).

[Arvachu]

My latest pickups are:

Cesspool, Overlord and the dictator, The Pogo Ballistic Battle Ball, the sea ray, Golobulus and the Mobile command center driver, a Python Patrol Conquest and a Firebat. Overall Its been a good week considering I found a sale on comics and got a lot of old joe backissses for a dollar a piece.

[Scarrviper]

[Jay]

I just got in a figure I needed to update two of my less inspired customs.

What figure was it, and which customs am I updating?

That, you'll have to wait and see. ;)

[Prince Adam]

Got my new Shipwreck in today so I can retire the other one. Always loved this guy and aside from the belt buckle he's in awesome condition. Polly's a great addition too.

Holy cow, nice Shippy there Adam!

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings mortals!

Haven't bought anything in a while, so went out today and bought the following:

Bravo army soldier (x2)
Deadpool (finally found one)
Mrs Marvel

No Joe stuff yet. I just paid off my credit card, so it feels kinda nice not having that to pay per month. But now I'll be able to focus specifically on ordering Joe stuff.

--Death

[ThinkTank]

I got a complete Whirlwind and a complete Coastal Defender on an out of town trip the other day to Houston. That toy store there is fit to live in. Dont tell wifey because we are almost broke lol.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Congrats on finding a whirlwind. I've been hunting for 2 of them.

--Death

[jedsoon]

I also found Deadpool and Ms. Marvel the other day. Finally sprung for a T-1, it looks like I could justify picking up a couple more!

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings mortals,

Well, today was crazy. Someone tried to buy things using my credit card number out in California. Fortunately I had taken measures months ago against such things.. but it's still cause a lot of trouble, new cards, etc. And so my Joe orders for this week and last week are on hold.

So, I had to go out and buy another Resolute 5 pack. So that's two more red resolute troopers, yet another resolute CC, another black BAT, another Duke.

--Death

Please share with us what counter measures did you use.

What really worked is that the card is not authorized to be used outside of my area. When I travel I tell the bank folks where I go so they will make adjustment.

[Prince Adam]

Wow, that's really crazy Death! At least you ound up on top though. Sorry you had to cancel all your orders though. :(

[Black Knight]

Ok, so over the past week I have added to my collection with a huge 1980's vehicle lot, an Earthquake, and some ARAH figures.

The Earthquake was bought on EBay for $4.99 + $10.00 for S&H, it's only missing the missiles.

The vehicle lot was two boxes for $80.00, as much as I didn't want to fork out the money, now I'm glad I did. This is from my local "toy collector".

Box 1:

GI Joe Headquarters (99% complete - missing flagpole & spotlight, I think)
VAMP (99% complete - missing gas cans)
AWE (100% complete)
APC (100% complete)
3 different mobile gun stations (all near complete)
[color=red]Sky-Striker (20% complete)[/color]
[color=red]Covergirl's Tank (near complete)[/color]
Triple-T (100% complete)
MOBAT (near complete)
[color=red]Sgt. Slaughter V1 (mint - minus weapons)[/color]
[color=red]Covergirl V1 (mint- minus weapons)[/color]
[color=red]Duke V1 (near mint - broken O-Ring)[/color]

[color=red]Cobra Ferret (near complete)[/color]
[color=red]Cobra ASP (missing canopy)[/color]
Cobra Rattler (missing "windows")
Cobra HISS V1 (missing stickers)

Box 2:

[color=red]Killer Whale (20% complete)[/color]
[color=red]Space Shuttle (small one - 15% complete)[/color]
[color=red]Phantom? (big futuristic jet thing - missing wing tips)[/color]

[color=red]Cobra Python "Conquest" (missing missiles)[/color]
Cobra Night Raven (missing tail fins & scout jet)
[color=red]Cobra Hammerhead (10% complete)[/color]

Anything in red I'm willing to part with, just make an offer if you are interested.

[Prince Adam]

Today the postwoman brought me a nice sized box containing a 100% complete Zartan and Swamp Skier, even has the box and all the inserts and paperwork including catalogs and such. On top of that it still had the thermo-sticker sheet with only one set applied! I'm like pig in... you know. ;)

oh yeah, got a complete Swivel Arm Cobra Trooper too. But he's taking a back seat. :D

[Outrider]

Finally, FINALLY my CC Undertow arrived, and man, is he a cool figure! :D

[Nekoman]

I got my stuff from BBTS recently, which was:

The MASS Device DVD pack
Weather Dominator DVD pack
MOSC version 2 HEAT Viper (which I opened as he didn't seem to be worth much)
25th Anniversary Black HISS Tank
Action Force Devil Fish

Can anyone tell me how rare a AF Devil Fish is by the way? I know regular ones aren't rare, but I don't know about Action Force. It's pretty cool having it in my collection anyway.

[silentdusty]

Also got my CC Undertow, I concur with everyone on how great this figure is. Now to get some O-Ring Grenadiers..

[Urban Saboteur]

I finally got the skymate I was looking for :)

Got the newer version of the Punisher and Blade figures today. If my computer wasn't so F'ed up right now I'd be posting some pics.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings!

Bought two droids. Target has some 3 3/4" R2 and R5 units that are remote controlled (infrared). They move straight, turn, sounds, lights. The units are better quality than the regular toy.

Picked up the classic blue/white R2 droid, and the black R2 empire version. Pretty good for fun at the office.

[Prince Adam]

Do they work really well? I was thinking about getting one for my brother.

[QUOTE=Prince Adam]Do they work really well? I was thinking about getting one for my brother.[/QUOTE]


Yes, they do work well. However, movement is simple, just two buttons on the controller: straight and rotate (rotate right i think). The speed is rather quick, especially the turning. Works best on a level surface. The turning/rotation is pretty narrow, so let's say you find the droid up against a wall, when you turn the unit reverses slightly then rotates. Can get out of jams well.

One con: the two main legs do not move. They are fixed/molded into the body. If the angle of the legs were a little more back, it would give the unit more stability when the droid is turning. That turning can be very quick that it can cause the droid to fall over. Not offten, but has happened several times.

Each unit is on a different frequency/band, so you can have one of each and they won't interfere with each other.

Future plans, I hope to buy another black one and paint it Cobra colors. ;-)

[tycondrius23]

A Dollar Store Beachhead, still carded
Various accessories to complete some of my incomplete figures, including two HEAT-Viper backpacks for my Fast Blast Vipers and a v1 Destro backpack for my Blackout custom.

No thanks.
I'm happy with these guys.

I have eight now, and in total it's cost me only 50$ shipped to get that many. Granted, they have no gear except for one almost complete, but that's what Marauder Inc is for.

[tycondrius23]

Took delivery of two of the new Stingers today, and having had a look at them I'm a little disappointed. The plastic feels cheap and there's quite a few rough edges on them. Even the finish of the plastic looks half done. I just hope the Arctic HISS tanks have been done better.

[tycondrius23]

cool you must snap some pics of them . just wondering do you want to ofload the 25th style drivers for the stingers ?

I bought two lots of what is essentially custom fodder, I'm running extremely low, about thiry figures. Might be a couple keepers in there but I really won't know until they arrive. :confused:

[ThinkTank]

I was in houston again for work and picked up checkpoint alpha in really good complete condition. I always wanted one. Maybe this weekend I can get some shots of it

[Arvachu]

I just got a whale, a reissue rattler, 3 crimson hiss tanks, a crimson guard, the crimson officer pack, big boa, wraith, 2 of the flame thrower desert troops and one of the environmental one, a viper, a snow serpent, a bio viper, the two packs with shockwave and destro and storm shadow and tunnel rat, and a whole ton of joe comics at adventure con this year.

[tycondrius23]

just got my power base and the Manimals and custom SS .
ok own up who won that sweet lot of stuff on ebay there was a joe HQ and Night raven and a ton of Joe jets . the seller was in canada . man it was a nice haul the winning bid was only $55 they had a complete Nightraven .rattler the HQ looked complete too plus a whole bunch of other vehicles

[Scarrviper]

Scored a 2003 convention Major Storm and Lady Jaye last week and they finally arrived today. Unfortunatly I need to completly redo the paintjob on Jaye's eyes because they were way off :( :mad: . Worse than funskool :eek: . Also the seller sent me Falcon's filecard instead of major storm's :confused:

[Prince Adam]

That's a great score, Scar! Sucks about the fc though and Jaye's eyes. The Joes from that set are fairly underrated, imo. Everyone goes apesplat over the Crimson Vipers and the Joes get no love. :confused:

Also, while this isn't a Joe booty, I still feel I need to show this off.

I've just obtained a HasbroToyShop exclusive Transformers Universe Special Edition Drag Strip and a Toys'r'us exclusive Transformers Universe Darkwing....
And it didn't cost me a bloody dime! :D :D :D

Well, it's a hilarious story.

See, when the first pictures of Universe Cheetor popped up, he was pretty badly mistransformed... I got in an argument with another guy about whether or not he'd suck, and I maintained my position that he would not suck. He ended up asking me if I was willing to bet on that, I agreed, and the bet was for a Deluxe-class figure of the winner's choice. He eventually conceded even before Cheetor came out and ordered me Special Edition Dragstrip from HTS.
When he finally got around to mailing that to me, for some reason he decided to throw in Darkwing as an "apology for taking so long to ship it", in spite of the fact that I never even bothered him about it.

So yeah.
Now I need to get a 1983 GIJoe HQ or a Mobile Command Center 100% free, somehow.... :rolleyes:

[tycondrius23]

that was some . luck . never been a big fan of BM or BWs myself .

I'm closing in on completing my ultimate Joe team :D I estimate I will need another 30 or so GIJOES some of them like Falcon & Freefall and more rarer htf joes like Updraft and SP figures. :)

Some sweet pick ups there Rich. I had a nice little delivery from the mailman today too:

You are so lucky Craig. Where did you order them? I really hope these get released in stores eventually.

Y'know that version of Guile was actually one of my favorite toys at point. That was during my Sega phase. The Dragonfly repaint he came with was pretty cool too, really wish I still had it. Great haul, Sabotuer!

I have that one (it cost me less than a Dragonfly would've). I replaced two of its missiles with Tiger Fly bombs I got with a Tiger Fish... still need Tiger Fly missiles for it though.

[Outrider]

Kurt, I picked these two up from eBay, but I have two more on the way from BBTS. Smalljoes were out of stock, unfortunately. And Rich, the missiles are exactly the same as those on the new Stinger.

There's a peg on the underside of the Claw for the Strato Viper's back. And yep, the nephew is already playing with the figures!

[Prince Adam]

Got one of my custom fodder lots in today. There were a few good ones amongst the roughage though. I'm diggin Airwave a lot and I'd been wanting to pick up Big Ben v1 for a while. Blizzard was actually in better condition that I was expecting and I've got his helmet around somewhere. Dodger I'm not too sure about, he may just wind up being a random vehicle driver, and Taurus' head will likely go to 'Nok. The other 15 are fairly forgettable though so I didn't take pics.

Wandered in again last night to the toy shop I found the smaller movie toys at last week, and there staring me in the face was the full range of ROC stuff. So, I picked up the Steel Crusher (excellent - well designed vehicle) and the Cobra Gunship (a little weird but not too bad), and passed on the Night Raven (a little too "cartoonish" in design for me). I bought a few of the figures for the cool accessories. They seem to be a little less scrawny and less fragile than the regular 25th figures.

[tycondrius23]

oh oh oh please can i grab the moto viper of ya please please please . btw how much are thos steel crushers . I really want one just love the looks of them

edit
I got one !! 34.99euro . sweet its amazing . but Craig if your looking for a home for the moto I'll gladly give ya some of my ARAH stuff for him :)

I've always wanted a Fort America.

More out of morbid curiosity as to just what it does more than anything else, though.

[ender098]

Better late than never! Got my second Arctic hiss about a week ago and scored 2 MIP Major Barrage figures on ebay for under $20 including shipping!!

My brother had Fort America when we were kids and a cousin of ours did as well. The three of us were never too impressed with it. The concept is interesting, but the delivery is a bit lacking.

Today I received the 1998 Arctic Firefly (now I have a Firefly for every occasion!) and the 2003 Operation Anaconda Cobra Commander.

[GoCards]

Picked up a few of the Bravo Team Special Forces figures. 3 of the Delta Force and 2 of the SEALs.

[Da Talent]

picked up a steel crusher and gunship this morning.

[Outrider]

[QUOTE=fireflyed]picked up a steel crusher and gunship this morning.[/QUOTE]

Can't wait to see your take on the Gunship Cory!

[Black Knight]

Ok, where to begin... I started out this morning by heading to TRU. When I got there they hadn't put out the ROC stuff yet and didn't plan on it till Monday since they were understaffed for the weekend. Well, long story short... the manager let me raid the "U-Boat" of ROC stuff while it was in the stock room before anyone else even knew it was there. I love that I use to work there.

Here's my grab... don't ask how much I spent:D ;

ROC
Firefly
Duke (desert)
Ripcord (D-6 suit)
Shipwreck
"Deep-Six" (its really Torpedo)
Covergirl
Heavy Duty (green camo)
Snake Eyes (without Trench Coat)
Destro
Baroness
Viper Commando (X's 2)
Neo Viper (X's 2)
Zartan

APV Humvee w/ Nitro Viper
ATV (4-wheeler) w/ Scrap-Iron (X's 2)
Gun Ship w/ Firefly (X's 3)
Night Raven w/ Strato-Viper


I feel like I'm forgeting stuff, but I think thats it.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Oh wow! You got some I've been hunting for: Firefly, desert duke, Baroness. I don't intend to get the vehicles just yet. A lot of 25th stuff on clearance to buy first.

Gosh, I'm jealous!

So, are all TRU's supposed to place these out on Monday? I went to TRU here yesterday.. Friday.. no life in the place.

[ender098]

Lucked out and one of the local TRU's had some of the Movie stuff. Got Heavy Duty in Armor, Ripcord in Accelerator suit, Shipwreck, Firefly, Sgt Stone and Deep six. They had more, but I didn't like Scarlett, Desert Duke, Cobra Commander, Either Version of Storm Shadow (too "Reloaded" looking for me!) or the Vipers (look like Cleitus from Flash Gordon!). And what is this Zartan? Ughn? BBQ is like a neon yellow. Are BBQ, Shipwreck and Deepsix (Torpedo) even in the movie?

They also had the new armadillo (called the Panther), the new ferret, the Bora machines (wanted one, but NOT forking over $16.99 for one!) The Pit, the new snow mobile (nice, but $16.99!) The noght raven and the gunship (for like $22). It's bad enough the movie is Probably gonna suck, but can they quit gouging us at the register?

The good news is Target has ever other GI Joe on clearence....bad news is, the E-scalpers have drained most of the targets here dry!

Oh, I just opened Deep Six and I keep thinking "DOCTOR" Fumbles!! LOL

[tycondrius23]

waoh kool what ya doing with the extra fireflys with the gunships ? btw anyone with a tru near them ? I wanna get the TRU exclusive movie Firefly to

[QUOTE=Outrider]Can't wait to see your take on the Gunship Cory![/QUOTE]

been toying around with it a bit today, I think I have some fun ideas for it. :)

[Death_at_Midnight]

Hunted around, got the following:

ROC Breaker (second for custom)
ROC Destro (can anyone explain why that big gun breaks in two?)
ROC Viper-Commando (second one)
ROC Firefly (essentially a resolute trooper with FF head. Excellent for customs)
ROC Barbeque (sp?) (with two guns.. now he can put out fires and shoot survivors if they're cobras)
25th Tripwire (for customs)

There was nothing else new at Target or TRU in terms of figures. However, lots of vehicles. I almost got the Steel Crusher, but primary reason, this week I need to continue army building Resolute Troopers, and the second reason is I didn't like the ROC figure with the vehicle. But maybe I might break down and buy it tomorrow.

[Prince Adam]

[QUOTE=fireflyed]been toying around with it a bit today, I think I have some fun ideas for it. :)[/QUOTE]

I'm looking forward to that one, FF! I think there's a lot of potential, but the stock vehicle is lacking.

[ThinkTank]

I got the Steel Crusher, ROC Shipwreck, Reactive Armor Heavy Duty and Sgt. Stone at Target today.

[ender098]

Picked up new ROC stuff....Steel Crusher, Baroness, Duke in reactive Armor, Scarlett in Reactive Armor and an Ice Viper. I dunno about you guys, but the guy that came with the Steel Crusher, shouldn't he be a Alley Viper vice a Nitro Viper? His vehicle is for Urban Combat.......

[Prince Adam]

It's really a Motor-Viper than anything else. To me the sculpt screams Motor-Viper, especially the "vest" and helmet.

[lehsreh]

since my last post here i dont know what6 i got. trakker underwater diver, steel crusher and the panther, blade, cap america, batista, lashley, maverick, wolvering and deadpool. a few more im sure, not a lot around here joewise.

[Jay]

Not much of a haul... but I purchased my first ROC figure, Torpedo (or rather, "Deep-Six") today.

[ThinkTank]

I got ROC Firefly today. Great accessories: falcons knife and backpack, and the flashlight, multi-tool, and gas can from comic pack FF. Also Beachhead's rifle with removable clip, the clip bag, and an extra clip. The body is resolute trooper with airborne's vest. Plus the goggles and an EEL head i think. Pretty cool fig.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Bought my second ROC Firefly today. Got it specifically for customs because it's a resolute trooper, really, with FF's head from one of the comic packs. But slap on a resolute trooper's helmet and you got yourself a trooper nearly perfect for urban warfare. So tonight out came the paint and city camo.....

[Black Knight]

Made another ROC run today... and planning another tomarrow.

ROC
DeepSix (wetsuit) (custom fodder)
Elite Viper
Sgt. Stone (custom fodder)
Zartan (custom fodder) X's 2
Heavy Duty (Impact Armor)

[Scuba Steve]

Funny that you picked those up BK! I just went to Target because I heard that someone found Helix already! Ended up grabbing Zartan (makes a good no name MP) and reactive armor HD.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings mortals!

Also made another run to Target today, with the intent of raiding it, but it seems I had already gotten most of the ROC's they had to offer. However, this time I was able to get the following:

ROC Storm Shadow.
ROC Baroness (attack of the pit version)
ROC Neo-Viper Commando (just buying these one at a time, no rush)

Tomorrow TRU is getting a shipment in, they might have more ROC's. But I'm waiting for that sale later this month I keep hearing about, and it'll be right after payday... hehe.. TRU won't know what'll hit 'em. *evil grin*

[Jay]

After finding the prices at TRU ludicrous, I managed to score a Steel Crusher at Wal-Mart for 28$ + tax. :)


It reminded me of why I always hated applying stickers.

[ThinkTank]

I got the extreme conditions arctic pack today. I have been seeing them at Hastings and couldnt resist anymore. It helps I got a fat overtime check too.

[Flatline]

[Outrider]

Okay, so I said I wasn't going to but the new Night Raven, but I walked into K Mart yesterday and the entire ROC line was 25% off, so I grabbed one. It's better than I thought, but not a patch on the original.

[Death_at_Midnight]

So, I bought just the following:

ROC
Ice-Viper (x5)


They had others, but I have them all except paris SS and CC. But I wanted the ice-viper b/c you know, I like Cobra arctic stuff, eventhough I live in Texas.

[Beast from the east]

[tycondrius23]

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings all ye mortals!

Just found a desert ambush scarlett. Nice figure, the face on this one is better than the urban camo scarlett. One gripe, the arms/shoulder is slightly covered by the armor design. There's a bit of armor at the deltoid level which hinders her from raising the arms.

[Black Knight]

Grabbed 8 more ROC Viper Commandos and also got 4 Resolute "blues" in the mail today. Heading out for an "all day search" tommarow.

[Urban Saboteur]

I shared these elsewhere so i might as well let you know what I got recently.

[vader9900]

Hey Carlos, Rambo looks great with the custom AK, lets see a cloe up!

[Sonneilon]

Over the past week or so...

4x desert dukes
1x grey camo CoverGirl
1x grey camo Scarlet

1x Ferret (wanted Scrap Iron)
1x Armadillo (wanted for Thunder)






Pet Shop Boys - Cubism (DVD)

Pangya (PSP; cute japanese golf game)

Elizabeth Swan from Pirates2? 3? Comes w/ funky globe. Clearance and... I have a figure of Keira Knightly... :eek:

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings mortals!

Well, I'm all grins... My Cobra is finally entering the 21st century. Just got a Night Raven 2 and a new Ferret, and with yesterday's delivery of a Steel Crusher I'm all happy. At last.. in the 80's everyone I knew who had Joes had everything. I didn't have Destro, though, maybe that's why.... Now I do and that's all the difference ;-)

[ender098]

Finally got a ROC Cover Girl. Wish the figure was as hot as the package pic! LOL

HAs anyone found PIT Commandos? All the online stores sold out of them and no store around here has a single one! From the look of them they are THE items to have!

[Black Knight]

My lastest haul...

ROC
Viper Commando (X's 4)
Ice Viper (X's 1)

STAR WARS
Sandtroopers (X's 2)

MISC.
Terminator T.R.I.P. (X's 1) These are on clearance at Target for $3.88.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings mortals!

ROC
Mole-pod - Expensive for what it is, but it's actually fairly neat. It'll be fun to paint it and really weather it down. A sub-terrainian (sp?) force should probably be interesting for dios.

ROC Baroness (x2)
ROC Scarlett (x2)
ROC Cobra Commander
ROC Desert Duke
ROC Neo-Viper (x2)

Feels like I got something more, but can't place it. Been doing lots of customizations, so maybe that's what's playing tricks with me.

[Jay]

In the past week I managed to acquire Paris Pursuit Snake-Eyes (who's a lefty, just like the actor portraying him!!!), Sgt. Stone and Accelerator Suit Ripcord.

I also got a Greenshirt figure in the mail after getting it on ebay, the blond one with a HISS Driver torso. His upper body is all skinny and his lower body is all big, it's a weird mesh of parts...

[Black Knight]

My latest grabs...

ROC
Ice Viper (x's 2)
Breaker

Star Wars - Legecy
Snowtroopers (x's 2)
Joker Squad

I've bled most of the stores around dry... I'm having trouble finding things now. Hopefully new shippments will be arriving soon.

[ThinkTank]

i got accelerator suit ripcord. the head sculpt is right on the money. I also got the Tripwire/CC comic pack for 4 dollars and a python patrol officer for 2 dollars on clearance at Target.

[pbarny1701]

Got my Cobra Island 7 pack, already have swung a deal for Dr. Mindbender...

Posted up a quickie review.
http://pbarnycustoms.blogspot.com/2009/07/review-of-invasion-of-cobra-island-set.html

[Beast from the east]

I ROC Cover Girl,CG and python Patrol off ebay
and am really glad I won the Star Wars fig Whorm Lothsome
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300330152745
I have the blue Tank for him already.

[Beast from the east]

So I went to walmart last night.
The display was gone from the middle of the isle but they had them set up in a regular isle. I bought the night raven,another gunship,steel crusher and Camo Scarlett.
The night Raven is really cool.I didn't have ythe original so I can't compare the 2 but the lights and sounds and the semi automatic firing missles are awesome.For the $50 I paid, its worth it.I will do a review of it later today.

Steel crusher is ok.Might use it as a prisoner transport for Cobra.

Have 2 Gunships now.2 things I don't like are 1. No Propeller.Should have it and 2. Hard to sit anyone in the back.Seems too small to fit a fig in there nicely.

[Jay]

Today I received a Cobra WOLF (stickerless, missing the wheels and with the front cockpit hinge broken, but otherwise complete) and an almost-complete GIJoe Badger, so I can now begin to transplant parts between the Crimson Cruiser and the Badger to make a maroon and blue Cobra vehicle! :D

[Jay]

Aaaaand I just got back from shopping with a Mole Pod.
I mostly got it for the Terra-Viper, whom I will use as a Cobra infantry commander... I guess the Mole Pod can be his personal attack vehicle.

[tycondrius23]

doesnt that mole pod look like this

very similar eh . lol

[Jay]

[QUOTE=fireflyed]I guess SOMEONE out there had to want a Terra-viper.[/QUOTE]
Yeah. And that's me.


But I'm not using the toy as a Terra-Viper, I'm using it as a single character. With his size and overall look he actually works great as a Cobra character I'd been meaning to make myself but couldn't get inspired in terms of parts.

[Death_at_Midnight]

Greetings mortals!

Bought the following:

Resolute 5 pack (CC, Duke, black BAT, red trooper, red officer)
ROC Helix
ROC Hawk (don't really like)
ROC Ice-Viper
ROC Flash
ROC Eel
ROC Crimson Neo-Viper
ROC Elite Viper
ROC PIT Commando
Crimson Hydra (with aero-viper)

[Black Knight]

he's Croc-Master repainted... I have no desire to have another Croc-Master, repaint or not, one is enough.


On another note... bought the "Ice Saber" today... pics are to come soon, but I've been quite busy packing.

[Jay]

[QUOTE=Black Knight]he's Croc-Master repainted... I have no desire to have another Croc-Master, repaint or not, one is enough.[/QUOTE]
Actually, his arms and legs come from Serpentor, which gives him a taller, more imposing frame.

According to the package, he was originally intended to be entirely made from Serpentor with Croc Master's head, but Hasbro seems to have changed their mind (probably because they had nothing to replace Serpy's skirt with).

[GoCards]

Elite Viper
Pit Commando(2)!
Hawk
Neo-Viper

Almost picked up the Crimson Neo-Viper, but passed. The Pit Commando is awesome! The gear alone makes it worthwhile.

I don't have an "other-half" yet.. but will be adding her to my collection this December/January. So far she likes the Joe collection I now have and has triggered a creative streak in her as well, but mostly in terms of business.

New additions to the Joe collection:
ROC Baroness (for customs)
SW Princess Leia
25th AWE (was on clearance for $12)

[Scarrviper]

Picked up the cobra gunship and TRU exclusive ROC Firefly for his gear.

The gunship is sweet. I've already bugun converting it into a proper helicopter. Expect pics soon;)

[Beast from the east]

Found ROC Sgt Stone and Deep Six at a Zellers so I picked them up. I love the camo on D6(repaint of 25th Torpedo)Starting to get a water team of 25th now.

Many thanks to my good friend Patrick A. Riley @ yojoe for the assist in getting me him.

[ThinkTank]

I picked up Helix and an Ice Viper yesterday. Most impressive. I had to pass on Flash, Pit Commando, and the ROC EEL cuz I didnt have much cash on me. I would get the Flash and the Commando if I see them again. The EEL was underwhelming.

[Death_at_Midnight]

[QUOTE=ThinkTank]The EEL was underwhelming.[/QUOTE]


Agreed. The ROC EEL leaves a lot lacking. However, the spring loaded canon shooter thing is useful.. it resembles one of those underwater self-propelled things a diver will hold to move around without swimming. But in a way, it also looks like it might have been designed to look like a torpedo. But anyway....

[tycondrius23]

sweet wouldn't mind a deep six. is there wet-down a Roc figure ? sumone said he was let-down but i'm confused did he mean deep-six as they are similar and he himself got confused [QUOTE=Beast from the east]Found ROC Sgt Stone and Deep Six at a Zellers so I picked them up.

There is no "Wet-Down".

ROC Wet-Suit is being released as a Target exclusive with that Wave Crusher thing from Spy Troops, but when some factory workers stole samples of the figure they neglected to grab the gear, so they slapped ROC Flash's mask on it, and some people were all "OMG WET-DOWN" or some dumb thing like that.
But ROC Wet-Suit's mold and gear are identical to the ones from the Attack Of Cobra Island 7-pack.

[Outrider]

Picked up another complete Maggot/Worms at a good price, going to customize the Maggot, probably in all black to match my v1 Hiss tanks.
