I agree....the 25th ann Joes also need some more color. Everyone they are making with the exception of Shipwreck & Snow Job are all green and black. Now I'm not saying neon it up but make some fan favs that arn't SE, Scarlett, Duke Let's see Airtight Barbecue (got noooo love since the Joes were reintorudced 10 yrs ago..yet is very much beloved) Classic Spirit Lifeline Outback Falcon (he's green...I know) Wet-Suit MAinframe Dialtone Airborne Bazooka Quick Kick Mutt & Junkyard (to keep it on topic lol) this line is being done now how it should of been when they released Joe vs. Cobra. The tooling is beautiful...the cards...wow....my only complaints thus far is Hasbro making a Red Ninja (c'mon...Eels? B.A.T.? Tele-Viper?) and no gloves on Flint

I LOVE the 25ths. Very impressed. So far they all look great except Serpentor to me. My only gripe if figure choice....Red Ninja?!?! WTF?!?! Thats a slot they could have given to Eels. THREE Storm Shadows and Snake Eyes?! Though the SE's all look sweet! There are other characters that could of been made in their place. Lastly the Cobra Legions set...we get a V3 SS, a gas trooper thats still peg warming TRU. an ugly CC. The only thing redeming about ths set is the Stinger driver. I would have Taken out the trooper, SS, and the gas trooper and replaced em with a Crimson Guard and Tomax & Xamot

It wasn't as rare as it seemed. I liked the figure alot myself.

Mine should arrive today or tomorrow in the mail. I can't wait! It looks awesome. Even makes those Winter Ops guys look sweet. Actually they do look sweet!

got me the Ice Sabre for $12.97 shipped!

Heh....kind of cool. Though I gotta question how you get on Brian for designing half-ass figures (which I fell are very well done) and charging $20-30 apiece for them, and you want $65 for this guy. Not trying to start a war here. Just seems a little weird for me.

Well, New Orleans just decided to tax the RTDA convention folks. They had guys walking around the salefloor, ARMED, and watching the booths. I think they were charging .25 for every cigar the handed oput as a sample to try out. The thugs even went to booths to say 'we feel you owe $5,000 due to the traffic your booth saw.' It was insane.

I'm hoping to go this year as I am the new buyer for my store, BUT the old buyer is a very very close friend of the owner of the shop and MAY be back....lol.....He can only send one of us, and unfortuanatley for me the old buyer has alot of sweet contacts. We'll see.... As for ESG's I havn't seen them except in magazines. We are getting some when they are released because we have an awesome arrangement with Ashton and the Fuentes. we are 1 of 15 accounts in the country to carry the God of Fires for Fuente. Very proud of that!

heh.....last year the RTDA show (tobacco and cigars) was in New Orleans. There was a furor over the fact that the city was charging vendors a tax to hand out free samples and stuff. Mom and pop operations included. Alot of booths were shut down because they refused to pay. People put alot of personal expense into their trip in hopes of making new contacts for their businesses. Last I heard the city was getting sued by some of the people, as they were not told about the 'tax' until AFTER the got into town and set up their booths. City people patrolled the sales floor making sure people had their certificates. Thnx for reminding me, now I WON'T be visiting the city.

As stated above, this is a way sellers can save on what they pay to Ebay. A seller pays ebay a certain percentage of what he makes on an auction. So high dollar items can get expensive with fees. Ebay does not charge you on your shipping obviously. This is against ebays rules and regs and can result in you losing your privledges if reported.

I sent him a best offer of $15.....<<fingers crossed>>
