Thought I would start another Buy/sell/trade here. The last one didn't have any posts since 2013. We wanted to simplify the main forums and in doing so, got rid of the main B/S/T section and going forward, people can post Joe stuff in this thread, or if they had a lot and wanted to create their own thread in the GI Joe section, you could do that too. Anyway, feel free to post your goods.

Haven't posted on here before, but I thought I would start by sharing a look at some of my collection.

Ever since the first wave of G.I.Joe Classified Series was released, G.I.Joe fans from the 90's have been anticipating the return of their favorite figures. An insider source (wink wink) told us that we might not have to wait for too long anymore... Neon-color fans, it's about to get weird: Introducing G.I.Joe: DeClassified Series! The 90's for G.I.Joe is usually synonymous with very bright colors, that would be absolutely counter-productive in a battle situation (neon yellow is not a great military camouflage color), along with other figures that looked like they came straight out of a fever dream, like the Mega Monsters, big creatures with weird features (one, Monstro Viper, would have a mold in his stomach in which you could use play doh to make "gut bombs", which he could then throw with his spring-loaded arm, and the other, Bio-Viper, had a mantis head, and 4 tentacles à la Doctor Octopus. I kid you not). Fast forward to 2022, and we're right in the middle of a great revival of G.I.Joe figures, with the Classified Series line. Of course, we first had to wait that all the main characters were out or announced, but now that we've been through most of the big names, it might be the perfect time to revisit that weird era, with the Mega Marines faction and their neon-color uniforms, along with the Monsters that they fight! Here is a mock-up of what the Mega Marine Gung-Ho would look like. Bask in his neon-yellow glory! More news at 11:00... Yo neon-color Joe! *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!

It's been a tough week for all in-box collectors, as ToyFarce has received multiple reports of the new Retro G.I.Joe Classified Series figures being sent by Walmart in unpadded envelopes. And when it's not an unpadded envelope, it's a box that is too small, so the person that took care of the preparation of the shipment just folded the precious retro card so that it fits. After getting tons of complaints from consumers that ordered action figures from them, Walmart has decided that they have had enough, and might just slap the shipping labels directly on the figures going forward! "If we slap the sticker directly on it, the courier will then see that it's an action figure with a nice packaging, so he would be more careful when loading his truck, to make sure that the packaging wouldn't be damaged", a representant of Walmart told ToyFarce. "We had a business study case on this, and that is the conclusion that experts in the domain have found in order for the packagings to remain intact for collectors who order figures from us. We hope this will satisfy everyone involved." "We will suggest 3 options when you get to the checkout. Option A with the sticker in the front, on the card; Option B with the sticker on the plastic bubble or Option C with the sticker on the back of the card.", they added. "In an effort to do what's right, the customers will be able to choose how they want the sticker on their packaging. Yo Joe!" More news at 11:00... "And if it's still an issue for some, we will start sending the figures loose!" *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!

On Wednesday, Hasbro held a G.I.Joe Hasbro Pulse Fan Stream on Youtube, with tons of reveals, announcements and even teases (Haslab coming soon?). Out of all those reveals, one would start a chain of event that would see Target 'out-Target-ed' by collectors! ToyFarce investigated. "Usually, it is Target that sends a message to their customers telling them that their order was cancelled, out of the blue, not the other way around!" said a Target representative. If you were to watch the minute-by-minute statistics of the Hasbro Pulse G.I.Joe livestream, you would see that after they announced the action figure of Outback in his original outfit, the traffic on Target's website suddenly increased, as collectors went to cancel their Target Exclusive Tiger Force Outback orders. "It took us by complete surprise! We were still busy cancelling orders on other NECA and McFarlane Toys items, and didn't expect Hasbro to cause this." Now, let's just hope that the Outback in his original costume figure doesn't end up as a Target exclusive as well... More news at 11:00... And cancelling is half the battle! *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!

The folks at exclumagazine has posted images from the Threezero booth at this weekends Wonder Festival, and one of the items they showed was a new 1:6 scale G.I. Joe Snake-Eyes figure. Threezero has done Hasbro based stuff previously Transformers related items. It's unknown if this version of Snake-Eyes is supposed to be based on anything specific or just their version of a more standard look of the character.

I got tired of waiting for the Cobra Alley Vipers, so I made my own, damn it! LOL! These are my Stinger Troopers. They are robotic units / Droids. The base body was Marvel Legends Captain America US Agent. I Bought the unpainted 3D printed vests, shields and gauntlets from ebay, and had to paint and customize them, while adding features with putty and fodder. The guns and backpack came from ebay as well. Everything else was sculpted, including the pouches, boots, helmet and other stuff. Magnets and holster slots were added to the backpack, for attaching extra weapons. Lastly they were hand painted with Tamiya and DecoArts paints. The Hasbro Baroness toy was added in some photos. More pics are in my DSNG Blog [ https://dsngsfm.blogspot.com/2021/11/stinger-troopers-original-character.html ]. Thanks for looking, enjoy and share!

If you have been looking to add a Sgt. Slaughter figure to your new G.I. Joe: Classified collection, well Valaverse has the next best thing for you. The ol' Sarge is joining Action Force with a new 1:12 scale Action Force Sgt Slaughter figure. It will feature 36 points of articulation as well as multiple accessories and a display stand. The figure is currently available for pre-order on CrowdOx, and will ship in early 2021 with the rest of Action Force Series One. You have to create an account, pledge on on of the levels that has a $32 figure, then when you continue, you get to choose who you want, Slaughter is at the very bottom. Check out this video of Sgt. Slaughter himself announcing his joining the Action Force team and check out images of the figure below.

This custom is an Original Character, and she was recently completed as part of a team I'm building, which I hope to finish someday. Her name is Agent Condor and she is a super soldier, an Entradan gal with light-blue skin [per her real face, which isn't included]. The base body was Marvel Legends Lady Deadpool. And I had to do a total repaint and a host of mods to the original toy's sculpt, to get the body that I wanted. Her body armor parts were all hand sculpted from putty and some fodder was added to some parts, like the gun holster on her right thigh. Her helmet and sword came from GI Joe Classified Snake Eyes, while her guns came from ebay. And she was hand-painted with Tamiya paints. And she is riding a custom painted Cobra COIL motorcycle, which came from the Classified Cobra Baroness toy. And 10 more pics of her are in my DSNG Blog, just search for it! Thanks for looking! Enjoy and Share!

A homage to the classic issue #21 of Marvel's Joe series, 'Silent Interlude'. The bullet strikes are practical effects, made from hot glued clear cocktail stirs and laser pointers.
