The only thing that blows is the Toyark.com level of spamming.

Seriously, who celebrates their 6th anniversary with this sort of self-important fan fare? Wait till 10.

This is huge news in the Joe collecting community. Not many people on this site are going to know about this (evidenced by the post getting tagged as spam.) The mystery figure has been floating around for years. There have been some who tried making customs of it and pawning it off as the real thing, etc. All that was known about the figure was that it was a prototype recolored flash. Beyond that, no one knew what he was supposed to be, if he was Action Force / Gi Joe, and unproduced Listen N Fun Flash. . . the speculation was always ongoing.
This is finally looking like someone found the answers many of us have been seeking for a long time. Kudos to The Baron! I looks forward to more information from your find!!

I know a lot of people on this board are new to the collecting community, but let me just say that the folks over at BFTB have solved one of the biggest mysteries in GI Joe history here.
Since I first became interested in collecting as an adult ten years ago, people have wondered just where this strange gray Flash came from....Ron Conner even offered a reward for information leading to its origins (since he owned it and didn't even know where it came from). Was it an unreleased "Listen N Fun" Flash? Was it an unreleased item from the Q Force line? Was it from South America? Now, thanks to the work of Dave Tree and the BFTB staff, we have the answer. I would think that deserves a bit better treatment than to be dumped in the "spam" category. 90% of the people who post here seem to have no concept of the rich history of GI Joe - this should be front page news so they can start to learn about it.

Right, this is really BIG news. The question I posed to the Baron though is this: Playing Devil's Advocate, do we allow ourselvest to believe that this figure has finally been found...or is this just the beginning of a WICKED April fools gag? I want to believe it's real. I really, really do. |
