Is for constructive criticism (will even settle for destructive) just anything but "Nice shot" or "Awesome".

Those sound pretty cool actually. Kinda patriotic. Just don't give the poor girl a strangly spelled version of a common name like Jeni, Margaux, or Pnaomeee. You'll never find personalized pencils, earings, or bicycle license plates.

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

Default Introduction

Well I guess it's time to introduce myself

I've been coming to this site since 2005 to look at pictures and enjoy your work. I've posted a little bit lately in the forum and commented on a few pics. I never really had time to take photos nor faith in my ability. You guys set the bar PRETTY HIGH

But since I've posted my first pic I think it's time to stop lurking and start contributing

My name is Arni
I live in Iceland
I have two daughters 9 and 3
I work in the purchase department for the most popular computer store in Iceland. YEAH

btw I'm not going to apologize for the volcano since it was not my fault and we're still suffering from it's effects.

First time I saw someone apologizing for a VOLCANO!!! He didn't do many things, it only stopped airplanes from all the world :P.

WELCOME!

Sorry, I saw your post only now (haven't been visiting the forum for the past months).

Yeah, too bad about Zen and Central World.

The only G.I.Joes that made it here in Thailand are the ROC first wave figs and Alpha vehicles but that's it, no follow-up waves. No POCs either. You can still find some stocks (mostly Neo-Vipers, Destro, ec. and the Panther/Armadillo etc. in Siam Paragon's toy shop and in all branches of Central Malls.

If you are looking for 1:18 stuff, you might have better luck. Star Wars stuff, for one, are in abundance here. Marvel figs in 1:18 scale too.

Before it was burned down, the TRU in Central World had a lot of Hulk Humvees on sale at just 1,000 Baht each (roughly $30) and PTE Blackhawk and Raptor (each selling for 1,500 Baht). (I should have bought a Blackhawk at the time).

There is a hobby mall in Chinatown (Yaowarat) which offer 1:18 stuff (both loose and MOC). I went there only once almost two years ago. I saw some figures from the "Alien" films there (loose), like Ripley and the Marines. Some Bbi/Elite Force figures too.

I also saw a 25th Anniv cartoon Baroness and a Nemesis/Lt. Falcon comic pack (both MOCs); a bit overpriced though.

There are also toy shops at the top floor of MBK though they don't sell any G.I.Joe item in general. You might get lucky though and find a stray Joe or Cobra item.

Apart from these, I don't know any other shops selling G.I.Joe stuff. There is a small collectors community, though.

Hope this helps!
