Thanks I love it I might have to snag a few more. ;)

Big Lots! Woot!

Went to Big Lots twice last week, didn't find any Joes. Went to Big Lots today, found Joes! Bought a bunch. Finally got a Zartan with that little .. thingy.. looks like a box on ski's.

So if you went to your Big Lots and didn't find Joes, keep checking b/c maybe they just didn't get them out on display at your location when you looked. Might be out now, or will be soon.

I've been getting some good stuff lately.

Water Moccasin in almost perfect shape, just missing the canopy and the tie rod between the steering vanes.
Perfect v1 TomaxamoT with guns, string and zip-cord handle and file card.
Perfect Keel-Haul v2. Actually I got two because I forgot I bought one from eBay and one from a collector (one went on to Zombie John).
A couple of Urban Camo painted Cobra troopers. I was supposed to get three, but the guy ran out and gave me a blue shirt, but I need a couple more Urban guys.
A red logo 25th Blue Shirt
Sgt Thunderblast
ROC Eel that comes with the Wave Crusher
A couple of Custom Vipers. I'll post pictures later, they're very cool.
A bunch of guns I've been wanting
Convention Copperhead
7 VvV Tele-Vipers
VvV Pyton Patrol Tele-Viper
Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes
Spirit Iron-Knife
Storm Shadow (wave 4/5 pack version)
Snake Eyes (5 pack version)
Zartan (second version, without swamp skier)
Cobra Eel
Crimson Guard
Firefly
Duke (wave 4/5 pack version)
Gung-Ho
Stalker (dvd pack version)

My Replacement Volcano Viper for the one I didn't think was gonna show came today! Now I have two! only 8 more and I'll have a full squad!

Otto hooked me the F_____ Up! Got a 25th CD, DOCI BAT, 3 Ninja Vipers Sgt ThunderBlast and a metric shit ton of loose ninja weapons! Thanks Bro!

Glad you got them Devil Dog. I was a bit worried that of all the packages I've sent out, that would be the one that would get lost coz I forgot to put a return address on there.

I haven't been buying much since the lull in the Joes at the stores. Over the last month or so I've scored a lot of repeats and some new things. Got multiples of what most ppl here have.. ROC Destro and Baroness, mostly for my diostory which I am still in the design stage of -- customs for it.

But I did manage to buy two Iron Mongers, all four of the Prince of Persia figures, and a few micromen and things for customs. SmallJoes is great for that.

It's getting to a point that I'll start posting about my own customs as new booty.

Went to Marshalls hoping to score some of the coveted Resolute troopers. Managed to get a Resolute Duke...and went back this afternoon and scored 3 of the Viper/Iron Grenadier Comic 2 packs! SWEETNESS!!

Scored eight 25th Eels from Ender.
Never had any desire to get these guys. I have no natural water around me, so aquadic pictures are almost impossible unless it rains, and it just doesn't do that enough in Phoenix. I got two Eels in a lot and thought about selling them off, then I saw how cool they were and decided to trade with Frank. So now I've got ten 25th Eels and one RoC Eel as their squad leader.

I also got a vintage complete APC today. A lot smaller than I remember them being

I recieved a ton of convention goodies today:

My red shadows con set, Z force 3 pack, and Q force 2 pack from Dancontrino, and I also received the staff car from evilbay.

This stuff is awesome! Long live the O-ring!
