That's correct. I'll only order in-stock as well. Sometimes I really wonder if Hasbro send allotments to the etailers of how much they should get or if these etailers just open up pre-orders to try and get as many as they can before getting a confirmation from the Big H on how many they can order.

Now that we're just about a week away, let's get a thread going about who will be attending down in Big-D next week. I'll be driving down mid-next week to visit family and then attending the con on saturday only for part of the day and then spending the rest at IKEA. Who else from ADC/TNI will be going for sure??

I'd agree with this. My Wal-Mart has been getting semi-regular cases and they do fly off the shelves. They got 5 cases last week and within 48 hours 90% were already gone. AFAIK, there is only 1 regular scalper around here and he seems to leave Joe alone. Interest is pretty high around here, so I can only assume that 'fans' are snapping these up pretty quickly.

No backup generators? Some DR planning.....

Ah, the 'Modern' Army.

That's where I got mine from, but I'm out. The only downside is that shipping is awful, but every store I looked at was the close to the same price. Perhaps I can get come at the con.

My favorite, however there are many that bring teh funny. http://icanhascheezburger.wordpress.com/fi...rprised-cat.jpg

I like it! A very nice nod to Issue #38 of the Marvel run.

Time for a name change again? 'Mike' is quite bland. Perhaps CD should be revived?

Hmmmm. I'm sure I read that Wal-Mart rasied the prices at the 'cost' is still the same as it was when the figures were $4.88. I'll have to check that.

SE declassified was a good story that was ruined by the 'idea' that SE and CC knew each other before Cobra started. That was trash and it makes me regret the DD story lines even more. Well, part of the "ugly" side of GIJOE, especially the comics, is that its really a soap opera. Serialize any fiction for any length of time and its inevitable. Fore example: Snake-eyes wants to marry Scarlet, but he's convinced they will never live a life of peace until his conflict with Stormshadow is resolved, but that's difficult because Stormshadow is in the thralls of COBRA. Stormshadow, meanw

I would not mind a total scrap of DDP's continuity. I feel dumb for sticking it out thru 40 or so issues of the first series. Some of the stories they scripted were beyond the pale for me.

Ah, the revision case.

Can you add the word "custom" to your title?
