G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero

[RoIIo Tomassi]

Do they have the rights to the Original G.I.Joe? I'm pretty sure if Hasbro finds out Hasbro is making old Joe figures in comic packs without Hasbro's explicit permission, Hasbro could sue the pants off of Hasbro and then the consumer would end up getting screwed by higher priced toys. Hmmmmm...now that I say that out loud, Hasbro probably has a standing agenda to sue themselves and pass the litigation costs onto consumers.

Was placing an order, and the AWE Striker sold out between the time I put it in my cart and got to the last checkout screen. Ain't that a bitch? Guess it's Wally World for that one.

GI JOE mercenary wraith up right now on HTS...use FALL20 for 20% off and free shipping!

[anarky]

He doesn't ship until November. Screw that. I'm not looking for a Python Officer repeat.

Besides, Wraith kinda blew cock in the comic. He was an obvious Blaylock superhero creation and didn't fit in the Joeverse well. I might get him, but I want to see him first. And I definitely don't want the clear variant.

stryker is back up

[anarky]

Did you mean Trakker? I'm definitely passing on that fatherfucker. I seem to be in a minority, but always thought MASK was this cheapass knockoff of Joe and TF. If the toys had been on a larger scale, been something other than cheap junk, or had a cartoon that didn't suck major ass, I might think differently now. I had two MASK vehicles I got as presents, and they were worthless since they didn't work well with either of the lines they were knocking off.

No, in case you're wondering, I am not one of the geeks who jizzed my pants when I saw Trakker at Comic-Con. I simply thought to myself, "What the fuck? No Mindbender, but some jackhole ripoff character?"

[Seven]

no, the A.W.E. Striker with leatherneck is up.

[anarky]

Striker. Gotcha. Ordered and should ship within one business day. That FALL20 is tough to beat.

[Seven]

Awesome! Glad you got it! That 20% off and free shipping makes it cheaper than retail!

I picked up the mercenary wraith, Snow Job and Arctic Snake Eyes for now. Waiting for the rest of the next two waves to be available. Can't wait for Airborne!!

[anarky]

Airborne looks sweet, and I can promise you Arctic Snake Eyes and Snow Job are well worth it.

[jjreason]

I picked up a bunch of older shit today from a dude who picked it up in the US for me. Snake Eyes vs Red Ninjas, MASS set #2, Parka Snake Eyes, Barbecue and the TRU Exclusive Joe officers 3 pack.

GI JOE 25th DVD Battle sets "Rise Serpentor Rise" and "Pyramid of Darkness" are up now at HTS. Code MDCREW still works for 20% off. Ordered 1 of each, came to $44 bones, including shipping.

[anarky]

I started to order, but it's slightly more than they'll be in stores. I'm not worried about finding anything they've got now, including the basic figures. At $7.99, even 20% doesn't cancel out the markup on basic figures and Combat Heroes when you factor in shipping.

[Seven]

I'm not worried about finding them in stores either however, it's $.36 cents more per DVD pack, that's WAY worth the gas and more, my time spent, having to go to stores looking. Something I don't do much of at all these days.

[Stormshadow]

I'm not sure what to make of this. On the one hand, I am quite adorable. On the other hand, is this a representation that befits my deadly skills? My heart says no.
