Oooh, I hope this sucker shows up at KMart before next Saturday. They've got the Grand Gundam in they're toy ad, which expires 11/16, for only $14.99!

Very laughable. Star Wars came out in 1977 - G.I.Joe early eighties. Star Wars figures conquered the market long before the G.I.Joe comic was ever conceived. Get you facts correct before making stupid remarks. Read that again bub. He said Hasbro has had Joe a lot longer than SW. Which is true. Kenner made the original SW line. Hasbro had nothing to do with it until they bought Kenner in the 90s. And on the truly technical side of things, G. I. Joe has been around a hell of a lot longer than SW as the original line, the 12" line, first came out in the 60s. Might wanna take your own advice.

Oy vey, here we go again. Looks like that schedule over at qk has been switched around as they aired "Cobra Stops the World" tonight. So, do we start taking bets on when they'll air an episode that wasn't in the first batch this summer? :roll:

Sorry, but I've gotta agree that Liefeld is horrible. While I like characters like Cable & Deadpool (one of my favorite characters overall) that he helped create, all he draws is super-muscled characters. And guns the size of small planets. Us SW fans may think that Hammerhead's gun in the 90s was huge (right LJ?) , but that's just peanuts to some of what Cable hauled around when Liefeld drew him. BTW, nice to see your still floating around Lady Jaye. Have you popped into GalacticHunter yet?

Neros has been available since the first wave. I did just spot Royal & Haow at KMart of all places today. Hell, they even had some new Star Wars figs I didn't have. Note the use of past tense in that previous statement. :wink: - I'm really thinking about getting the 4 Kings so I can merge them into that Grand Master sucker. Looks awesome.

Damn, that's wicked looking! :evil: I'm not particularly sure what the background is supposed to be, but it looks awesome. 8)

Damn Preventer, I remember that 3 movie marathon! I think that's where I recorded Vampire Hunter D from originally. Was it CN though, or was it TNT? I'm thinking it was TNT.

I'm posting from campus right now (damn SIU dial-up that I use has been shut down indefinitely, perhaps permanently, & the other one doesn't want to work for me) so I don't have my box set in front of me, but one of my favs is the one with the mutated crab thingy that poisons Jet, Faye & Ein. A nice semi-nod to Alien, but funny at the same time, especially what Ed does with it. - I really need to find time to watch the series again.

Damn, I love the packaging. And damn is he huge! Perfection! Good choices on the lines, except maybe the final one. How the heck much is he supposed to be?

Gimli. Gotta love the badass dwarf with a major attitude. @-@

Ah, so I am the only one so far to catch the nice little homage to the old Joe/TF connection. Page 8, panel 2. Very nice. - And for those who still don't get it.... ... ... ... ... ... ARBCO Telemarketing is now called Teletran Marketing. As in the Autobots main computer, Teletran I. :wink:

This has got to be one of the goofiest 'toons I've ever seen. Ranks right up there with Earthworm Jim & Freakazoid. - - - We need more 'toons like this.

Ah, it makes me long for the days when MST3K was still alive & well. And that's not a bad thing, that's a good thing @-@ - I really love stuff like this.

I don't have any of the new Joe stuff, but all of my old figs are in those old school vinyl cases & one of the newer C-3PO cases from SW. My SW figs, the new ones that is, are all in 3 different storage mediums... 1) Vintage vinyl cases, 2 ESB & 1 SW. 2) 3 of those tool drawer thingies, I've found a type that has drawers that are fairly wide, semi-deep & very long that fit most f the figs. 3) Plano tackle box, model #3730. I've got probably a dozen of those suckers & would dearly love to get more, except for the fact that there is no store that carries them anymore in my area. They still make them, as I called the company earlier this week. I may wind up ordering a case of 6 from them. They hold 15 figures, very comfortably. Most of them you just need to have in a slightly slumping pose. And the spaces are enormously deep. 3" deep, as a matter of fact. Hell, I've got Dexter Jettster & the Darktrooper in those slots & they fit nicely. I've seen the Shimano, or whatever they're called, tackle boxed & they do look like they'd be perfect for Joes, BTW. #=$

Hurm. Looks like it's more Micro Machine scaled. Perhaps one of the playsets they released in the G.I. Joe vein?

I did catch some of what went down & what was done in the Monkey Room. JayC is right in that there are all ages that view this place. And most of what went down in there the other night was way outta line. Definitely not cool. That said.... Yeah, what the heck. I say let him back, if he is gonna be like Fonzie. And what is Fonzie like? He's cool. So if you're gonna be cool, then that's cool. Hey, whaddya know. This is my 200th post. #=$

Same here ironlungs. Great deal, especially since the Blockbuster here has around half a dozen anime flicks I've been meaning to rent.

Oh, so they moved the release up a week? Hadn't heard that.

December 18. And Star Trek X is two days later. Great strategy there Paramount. :roll:

You're damn skippy I'm gonna buy one! Hot Rod too. I've still got Mags, so no need for him.

I voted for Transformers, but it's really a toss-up between that & G.I. Joe.

Ryoko, definitely. Gotta love the space pirate. 8)
