This has been a great show over the past few years. There are going to be several 3 3/4" Joe sellers at the show this year. I will be there with a large selection of MOC and MIB RAH figures and vehicles. I will also have a ton of loose figures all under $5 each.

I have 2 different 25th Cobra Troopers. The first is from the 2008 wave 8 (some call it wave 12) that included the Ninja Viper and cartoon Diver. It has the red emblem and red mask, it also has an all black rifle. The second one is packaged and carded the same but it it has a black mask and the rifle has brown paint details. At first I though it was just a repack from someone returning figures but I am finding them all over the Dallas area. Where did this one come from? What wave? Is it just a running production change? It is different from the 5 pack ones that were released as singles do to having the red emblem instead of the silver. I can not find it listed in yojoe either.
Can any one help with this?
Thanks,
MATT

It has been a while since I posted here regularly but this thing has me very disappointed. Why have most of the large Joe playsets been dogs? It started with the 2nd headquaters (that we saw again for Street Fighters and in the RAH Collection era), the Cobra Mountain (lame SW remold), and now this strange item that Hasbro is calling the PITT. Star Wars collector are getting the Turbo Tank and last year got the 6 legged walker (AT-TE?) and this is the best they can come up with for Joe? In the past the justification has been a lack of interest and/or marketing (movie). Well last I checked we are getting a movie and interest is certantly on the rise. I expect more and better! Hasbro needs to stop cutting corners with Joe. The only way this one will make its way to my collection is when it reaches at least 75% retail on the clearance shelf, if even then.
Hasbro we deserve and expect better!

Just a reminder that the Great Texas GI Joe Show is this weekend at the Arlington Convention Center, where Wizard was held. There will dealers there with 3 3/4" items.
And there will be a sneak preview of a certain ninja that was produced by a company other than Hasbro. He is here now in hand ready to be seen in public for before Toyfair! I was able to see it last night and it is better than any picture can do it justice. There is also a special offer to those that order him or one of "The Enemy!" figures at the show.
Hope to see many of you there.

Thanks man. I am excited as this is my first Joe show.
I would say that it is 50/50, those that take cards and those that don't. I would bring some cash.

I just listed several rarer and HTF 25th figures, a custom truck from the Atlanta convention dio, and a custom by Alyosha. They can be seen here.

Recieved this email about the Joe show that is here in the Dallas Area. It was a great one last year and I expect it to be even better this year. Worth the drive and I sold and bought as much at this show as I did at the Con. I have sold at the last 3 and have done very well and plan on selling at this one as well.

The Great Texas G.I. Joe Show will be back in 2009 - February 7th and 8th to be exact. The show will be at the same place as this year - the Arlington Convention Center , but we're moving into bigger digs to accommodate the dealers better and to also have an even bigger tank obstacle course. Cotswold Collectibles, Creative Diversions, and True Scale Armor are already on board, and the following are but a few of the dealers checking their calendars to see if they can make it:
- Toy Chest and Collectibles
- Echo Base Toys
- Newline Miniatures
- Plastic Panzers
- Timewalker Toys
- Ace Allgood
- Guru Planet
- The Toy Matrix
- Eva's Junque Shop
- Louis Simmons' 3&3/4" Figures
Also, if you would like to be a dealer at this show, please gimme a holler at gbrown@whidbey.net.
We'll be sure to keep this thread updated with more info as it becomes available. Hope to see you there!

I need the 3 3/4" Col. Vogel from the wave 3 of the Indiana Jones line. I have other wave 3 figs to offer in trade: your choice of Indy w/ gun, Young Indy, or Henry Jones. If not interested in one of those I do have joes and a few G1 Transformers parts that might interest you. And if all else fails - cash.
MATT

I just added a set of the new Clone Wars Movie figures to by listings. There are still Transformers parts and Joe Night Force. Check them out here.
-
Check out my ebay listings here they all start at 99 cents and no reserves. There are also some TRU Night Force items.
Thanks,

This picture was over at Joe Battle Lines. I don't remember seeing it or hearing about it at the con. It is a clear Wraith but where did this one come from?
-
There will be at least 3 dealers there with 3 3/4" joe product, vintage, and all forms of modern and custom stuff.

For the second year the local GI Joe club, along with the Houston club and the LSSR, will have a GI Joe show. There was a little bit of everything thing there last year. This year the event has moved to a new location in Arlington (near Six Flags, Rangers' Ballpark, and the new Cowboys stadium). I was there selling and so was Alyosha. The official GI Joe Collectors Club will be there as well.
The official link is here.

Thanks guys. This was simple and quick to do. As soon as I can get some more stickers ordered and a pair of ant. from an AWE Striker I will have another one to post.

There is a custom troop/cargo transport. The base is a PTE Hummer with stickers from GI Joe Heaven. This will be in my dio for the convention this year. And the stickers from GIJ Heaven are great, well worth the price!

After long debate I have decided to collect only original 3 3/4" joes. So, I am selling off all of my modern figures. I have every carded set from GI Joe vs Cobra, Spy Troops, Valor vs Venom, and DTC. They are all still MOC. Almost all of the 2 packs are $6, single packs $4 or less, and the DTC are complete sets of 6 for $40. I also have several vehicles. Again I have every pack sold at retail. Just send me a list of what you are looking for and I will gather it up and send you a total.

Has anyone else seen the A-10 at TRU yet? That thing is sweet. I saw it yesterday.
I saw it yesterday at TRU as well. $30 though, and a little out of my toy funds for the moment. Nice piece though, add a little Cobra Blue to it, and REAL nice piece.
Anyone have pics?

any one know if there is a difference in the hot topic land adventurer and the walmart land adventurer???
Only difference is the Walmart Land guy has kung-fu grip, the Hot Topic guy apparently has the traditional hard hands.
Hearing other reports that the AT insignia on the uniforms are not stickers--but are printed or silk-screen on the fabric
Also that some Air Adventurers have been found WITHOUT the insignia--but should that happen to you, there's a few after-market places where you can get accurate stickers for them.
The Land Adventurers are identical, they both had KFG. And I opened 3 Air Adventurers and none had decals.
