OK, so who cleared out all 3 Targets in Sarasota and the 1 In Venice? I found a lousy Storm Shadow at two of the 3 Targets in Sarasota, and Nada in Venice... Who are you??? Person who is one step ahead of me? Did get a few of the new Star Wars Figs and a Marvel non variant Archangel in the process of Joe hunting though.

Does he now? Gee, I wonder where he got those from? :) Well, I guess I will try to polish my big mean jerk image around here and see if I can run off a couple more sets tonight. It is going to eat the last of my blank discs I have so I will have to ask for a modest fee for a set so I can go get more discs. Say 10 bucks? I assure you the quality is far better than what you normally expect from a bootleg so they are worth that.
And I am bringing some stuff to trade or sell. Nothing really special but I am not looking for much. I do have some sealed Viper Pit packs, a case actually. Also have some Night Force vehicle parts, a couple of carded RoC figures, some other various loose figures, and a Transformers Classics Powerglide I really need to find a new home for.

When was it and where? I went to one back earlier this year in Largo and they had a lot of toys. Not much GI Joe wise mind you, but I scored some cool non-GI Joe stuff.
I won the costume contest and got $50 in Convention money!

Could have? I am pretty sure you did. :) I was going off the line of thought "How bad could it be for 5 bucks?" Well, it was terrible and I feel swindled. Well, maybe not. There were a couple of hot chicks to look at. Even funnier were the jokes we were cracking amongst ourselves at the guy dressed up as the Green Power Ranger. The dude's outfit was so tight his package was bulging out. And then he walked up behind the girls that were admitting people into the show and started talking to them. They were sitting, he was standing. It was right in their face. Will's wife was like "OMG, he is jamming it right in their faces!" Just hilarious. Was all that worth 5 bucks? No, but at least it wasn't a total loss. I ended up with more money than I got their with because I sold some stuff. I also went down to the Tyrone Blvd TRU and picked up a PoC Spirit. It was their last one and only 2 Quick Kicks left.

Supposedly, the promoter who moved this from Tampa to St Pete who wants to "keep it small" is passing the torch to two new promoters next go-round. They will supposedly look at moving it back to Tampa for the next show in November. It was not bad in Tampa. There were actually quite a lot of toy sales going on along with the comics. I say the next one may be much better. I may get a table and BLOW OUT my collection. I have WAY too much and want to minimalize my life.

Ocala Target just had SS but had a decent supply of Ghost Hawks and Doom Cycles. Ocala TRU had an AV which I took, a BH which I took,another BH, two Dukes and SJ. Also a CC which I left. They had some Alpha and Beta vehicles as well but no exclusive figures.

Target in Forest City had empty pegs still....but had the mechs and the Ghosthawk and doomcycle...
TRU in Wesley Chapel had Spirit and Quick Kick, 3 left of each after I got mine, Beachead there was 2 and a Firefly plus the others. No CC. Also got my Alley Viper finally. That was as of 10:30 this morning. (just got home from work a short time ago so don't go yelling at me as to why it took so long to post this :) )

08-09-2010, 08:22 PM
I picked up an extra QK and Spirit today at the TRU in NPR since I opened my others. I hope that these stores start to restock in plenty because I am tired of waiting to buy my "openers" for POC. I didn't want to be greedy, so I left most of them whenever I would find them for others to get a chance but next time they hit, I will be getting one of each to open...these figures are bad ass!

Yeah, my friend I will be back again with two or three tables for the November show. I only had one table and probably had the sincle biggest toy selection of any dealer in the building. I should have more time to pull together some vintage and 25th Anniversary Joe stuff to sell by then.

LOL. :)
For those that don't know, Transformers are my main vice and I have between 3,500 and 4,000 pieces. For Joe, I was mainly interested in the 25th Anniversary line and haven't really been following the ROC & POC lines, so I haven't kept up on the sightings since the Cobra Island 7 packs hit Ross. I had recently stopped in to Hisstank to see what was going on with Sgt. Slaughter and have been reading the FL sightings on and off. When I saw a group was going to Tampa con, I posted some info for those who had never been there before. Like I said in my other post, I was a dealer at this last show and will be one in November.
I am sure I'll pop in once in a while to say hey, but I probably won't be hunting for any Joe stuff for a while unless Hasbro does some 80s homages within the POC line. Luckily, I was able to get one version of the sarge and now my primary Joe focus is in completing my Flagg. That being said, I will probably hit the Joe con one day in Orlando next year just to see one for myself.
So yeah, I'm around, but not keeping up to the level that many of you guys are with the current lines. However, I will be watching to see if there is something hot that all my neighboring fans are looking for and holding them at cost for those that can't find a item for their collection.

Seriously, this is awesome that the convention is going to be in Orlando. No flight expenses, no rental car, no taxis. And, I don't have to worry about how much crap I am buying and whether or not I can get it all in my luggage. I am hoping the tour they do on Wednesday is Kennedy Space Center. I haven't been there in years and would like to see it again.

To those in the Pinellas area, I found a new case of TRU exclusives at the TRU on Tyrone on Saturday morning. Sent FireFox91 there on Sunday and they had only 1 of each left. So in a day they sold about 6 of each. That seems pretty good. Funny thing is they had no other Pursuit figures, just the exclusives.

I'm a Star Wars fan but I just couldn't justify the cost of going. I also heard it is rediculously crowded with really long lines. Pass on all that. If there is one thing JoeCon really has going for it, it is that is a big convention with a small convention feel. No unusually long waits in line except for registration. No sea of people to fight past. Always a seat to be had in the seminars.

I haven't been to TRU for about a week but I got my Grimlock from TRU.com yesterday. Someone on Seibertron.com posted a promo code to get it for $60 shipped. It is $69.99 + tax in the stores. I still haven't opened it but from what I did see, it is awesome. I love getting the Masterpeice items without having to pay the prices for the Japanese imports.

Dude I spent yesterday evening runing around town with fellow tanker Zrblnk looking for alley viper and firefly, hit Targets, Trus, Walmart and nothing. 4 stores in 2 hours and nada! In this past week alone I've driven 60 miles plus, spend about 8 hours and hit 10 stores looking for em and nothing.
But hey I found some today so I guess the hunt payed off somewhat.

If anyone is going, I'm interested in the white Lego Boba Fett they give out if you help them build some big model/mosaic. Hit me up on PM and we can work something out if you need Joes or I can pay cash. Thanks!

Sweet, those should be easier to find then Alley Vipers. My TRUs restock on those every week Ive noticed.
On a side note this whole past week while i've been hunting for Firefly and Alley Vipers Ive noticed I find myself in the Joe isle a little longer then usual waiting to see if anyone else will pass by looking for joes. Normally I'd just grab my stuff or see nothing and move along but now I just want to see if anyone is looking for Bolo.

Me and Zrblnk have been wanting to go do this for a while now but between sneeking away from the wives and finding a place to do this in this ginourmeously overpopulated city is a pain in the arse! Every spot we check out is like cop infested, all the good fields to pay and play are like 2 hour drives away and we know there are local crews who play cause we sees them at the shops every saturday after a game.
If any of you tankers know of a local spot let me know. The two of us are also gonna go this coming Sunday to a spot out in Homestead that a friend tiped us about. I also got like 2 extra rifles if anyone is game.

Doral (Miami) TRU - POC CC, SE, Puke, SS, Beach Head, and Snow Job. I gotta admit Beach Head looks impressive and so many accessories. I buckled and picked up SE+Timber.
Off-Topic Sightings at Doral TRU: They now have EIGHT Masterpiece Grimlocks left. Note they are $69.99 each (ouch). They also had something I haven't seen in a long time: MOTU vs DC Skeletor vs Lex Luthor and He-Man vs Superman.

Apparently Kmart is no longer carrying GI Joe. Instead they've put out 10, yes TEN rows of pegs top to bottom of Iron man. Seriously out of sheer patriotism they should at least have 1 peg of GI Joe.

But I also have an ROC Snake Armor. And the SDCC Destro boxed set.

ok so I went to Target in St Pete last night and they had nothing. Today they have wave 2. Didn't get Recondo or Jungle Viper, as both were MIA. I checked 6 Targets today (I have no life. Shut up.) Dale mabry and Erlich, Dale Mabry and 275, Park Side, Clearwater Mall, Largo Mall all had no Wave 2. However like I said it could change tomorrow.

My wife found wave 2 at the Bloomingdale Target today. I actually kind of like the Snake Eyes. I think he is better than wave 1. I don't care for any of the other figures in the wave except for Jungle Viper. He is pretty bad ass.

I grabbed 4 but left one at each Target I went to. Picked up 3 Recondos and another set of W1 minus Snow Job.
One of the Recondos was partially torn open but nothing was missing so I grabbed it anyway.
I picked up some extras in case any of you locals can't find em and would like to trade.
x1 Cobra Commander
x1 Recondo
