I believe i posted on here before, but i might as well say hello to the noobies.


Hi, I am Matt Morelock, My Actual Birthday is December 6th, 1994
I am 14, I live in Southwest'Virginia (Not West Virginia)
I am a regular here, heck I visit this place more than myspace lol!
I am also into Video Games and a striving Photographer and I do play video games.

If any of you play HALO 3 online look me up, I will play with you

thats me Nando a.k.a Fernando

That's where I am. I can't write fanfic because all I ever read is either sooooo technical that I feel that I'm being lectured by a DI or it ends up turning into flash that has Destro shacking up with CC :eek: . I'm not into being a lecturer (If you learn something from me, go read more!) and flash just ain't my style (Can I say YUCK enough?). I have a larger universe in which Cobra is only one problem that the world faces. That being said, the GI Joe team isn't (gasp) the center of the stories (GI Joe Colton is a big part of it, though). I'm in the middle of reshooting some scenes to my first real dio (because the originals just lost their focus - storywise). Hopefully I can soon join the rest of you guys who put out the dio focus of this site.

Naw. Lol ,my boy means good friend.

ohh, as you can tell, we do not get outside very often. :D

Well sometimes for a brazilian somethings can sound like others, huahuahua!

ha! funny comment!

This is pretty much cut and pasted from my Myspace...

First off I have an uber-hot girlfriend who deals with me and my antics, buys me toys, and loves GI Joe herself.


I am also lucky enough to play guitar in two of New Jersey's finest bands; Booze-Fueled Doom-Metal Juggernaut SOLACE



and the Drug Addled Kings of Scumbaggery CALL THE PARAMEDICS.


When I'm not being a scumbag rockstar I spend my time visiting the graves of the famous, infamous, obscure and bizzare. You can see more at DEADTREK.

GI Joe has forever been a staple of my life. Countless hours of my youth were spent waging huge battles, watching the Sunbow series or reading the Marvel comics. As I got older music took the forefront, but now I find myself happiest setting up my ever growing collection of 25th anniversary figures.

Welcome aboard smutty.

I am Trenchviper, I am not a particulary interesting person. I lurked here for a while and I have greatly enjoyed reading diostories here and other places on the web. I have an idea for an dio story but first I have to learn a bit about taking pictures.

Welcome me and Greetings to myself!
 

Greetings... its finally good to be able to post and make use of my collection. I have been interested in this site and everyone's Dios for some time, but haven't had the means to actually join and do anything of my own.
So, Here I am.... and soon I will begin!

Hi everyone,

My name is Mark, recently turned 34 and as a B-day gift to myself ordered the Toys R Us exclusive Firefly vs. Greenshirts pack from the online store. I'm finishing up a year in Korea, which is great 'cause Joe figures are hard to come by. The PX here doesn't get much; I've bought maybe a dozen 25th Anniversary figures total off the pegs so I'm several months behind.
It won't help any that I'll be deployed from Fort Bliss in May 09...I'll probably be watching a bootleg copy of the movie :mad:

My first figures were 1982 ARAH Straight-arm figures of Flash, Scarlett, Short Fuze and a Cobra Enemy for Christmas that year, and have been collecting ever since but for a break in '93-2002 (college, starting a family). I have a fraction of my classic 80's figures left; most were sold off on ebay to get money together for my other hobby playing guitar, bass, drums - whatever can churn out heavy rock.

Anyway, I go by the same name at HISStank.com and this is my second day here. I'm having a great time setting up photos, shooting 'em and sharing with you. There's a LOT of talent and creativity here and I'm very much looking forward to getting to know some of you.

Welcome guys!
Love your stuff already, keep it coming! :D

WELCOME to all the recent victims, I mean, members. Shoot your pics as you will. This place... It's special. WE, the COMMUNITY, love seeing what people can do; no matter if it sucks or is great. A lot of us LOVE to help those who don't quite have the eye or technology down. We all start somewhere. Trust me, Lord Raven, Ender90210 and myself (the old guard) have helped a lot of people get their stuff tight. And while we might teach as much, the 2nd generation WILL!

A lot of people don't think they can shoot a picture. WHO CARES??? It's all digital, erase it until it's right! (lol) Seriously tho, we ALL played with the toys. There musta been a story in your head when playing with them. The next step (beyond writing fanfic, imo) is doing dios or even 1-shot scenarios that can tell the story. LOOK at any 1-shot (PHOTOS) and it tells a story.

Some of us older folk like the challenge of just pulling a figure from our collection (or a couple of figures) and see what we can do. THAT'S the joy of Weekend Warriors. "Here, the idea is to use General Hawk (upcoming) and see what you can do with him!" If you don't like YOUR shots, look at other people's and it can give you inspiration. I KNOW that Luke Ellison and Outrider blew my mind and I just HAD to learn how to do foto manipulation (ie; aerial shots). Then along comes someone like DaveCW90210 and MC HAMMER comes in and says, "CAN'T TOUCH THIS!!!"

ANd then, it comes down to style. I may have followed other people's examples but I've come up with my own style. For me to throw down DaveCW-style shots, it's not me. But... Find what works. ANd when the dios' stories are so incredibly strong, the photos are just icing on the cake!

Ok, ok, I'll shut up now...

some of us don't have cameras.

here is my notorious ones form Joecon's past:





(FYI, Im th Black Guy,..)

Well Hello
 

My late intro..sorry
 

Ive been posting on here for i think 2 mos now and havent really formally introduced myself. My name is Sean, just turned 34 09Sept. Im now a stay at home dad formally an EMT of 10yrs. My wife is a 911 dispatcher for the fire dept. Im now starting to restore vintage Vespa scooters. I can thank my time in the Airforce as an F-16 crew chief for my mechanical skills!!We have 3 Vespas and a Puch moped. Rally Pilots SC
Here is the link to our local scooter club. I have the light blue vintage, my wife has the red one with the devil horns.

Im really happy to see all the new joe stuff coming out. I have a lot of great memories playing with my friends. I lost most of my vehicles in a garage fire when I was in high school. All my figures were saved since they were in an ammo box sealed up!! Most of you have seen my current project, the cobra fortress. I'll have new pics up soon. Im almost finished with the air conditioning duct work in the main control center. Of course there will be a way into the fortress via the ducts... Im such a perfectionist, im afraid it will take quite some time before im totally finished. It will probably be a continued effort of changing and making new stuff. Soo keep an eye out for the updated pics!! Cheers, Sean.

It's too bad Pain don't come around more often and reply to ppl's pics! I'll have to bug you on the JBL Chat sometime...

Hello everybody!
 

Hi everyone, just call me VC. I really dig the pictures here so thought I'd come join the fun! Here's a picture I recently took, Joe VS Cobra standoff, LOL. Hope to learn much about snapping pics while Im here! :)

Greetings
 

Greetings! New here, finally able to post. Love the site and all the work everyone has put into the dios and photos. I'm now working on a few scenes and hope to post something fairly soon.

--Death_at_Midnight

Welcome in!

hello to all

New to the boards, very first post
 

Hello everyone, new to the boards but very familiar with the site. Love the place, love everyone's hard work on the pics, dio's & customs. :)

GLAD TO HAVE YOU DON'T WAIT TO LONG TO GET SOME OF YOUR WORK POSTED ;)

Welcome to the boards, I like what you have posted so far! Keep up the good work!

Welcome
 

Welcome to the recent new members, looking forward to seeing what you can contribute and put up on joe dios :D

Hello.
 

Oooh. Just found this thread after making an intro thread for myself -_- Sorry.

But anyway. I'm new here. Totally dig all the photos on here.

I don't make customs, apart from just head swaps, but that don't count. I do like setting up my figures and taking photos of 'em. It's sort of a hobby.

Quick question. What's the generally policy on incorporating other toy lines into photos on here?

Welcome!
