Just wanted to share my excitement today. Picked up this USS Flagg yesterday, it needs lots of attention and work, needs most of the small pieces that came with it, superstructure needs a new paint job, but I just couldn't pass this up.
I haven't seen 1 of these in 20 years, and when I did it was only once when I was a kid, and I must say this thing is HUGE!I'm not quite sure what to do with it yet, I'll decide in a few days, but for today I'll look at it 30 times amazed I actually have this Giant...... |

thats really cool!
didn't g i joe have some kind of episode where there was a ghost ship ;) u could always have zombie g i joes.. like the pirates movie.. then if hasbro makes a new one... you could have the old joes warring with the new joes hahaha If they make another one i wonder how many they would sell if it still had the 100$ price tag or what kind of price you do think it would bring in todays dollars? what would be the maximum people would buy that huge freaking item at? also where would u put it? Coffee table? Shoe Rack? Step Stool? Parking Garage for your vehicles? Book Shelf? Old newspaper Stacker? |

I'd definitly buy a new 1 if Hasbro put 1 out. I'd prolly pay up to 500 for it, and to be truthful, I probably wouldn't even open it.........

I bet my mom still has mine in her attic somewhere. I'm going to have to look one of these days. I remember getting it for Christmas. They spent the entire night assembling it. It's a lot bigger than you would think.

That's awesome man, a little TLC and she'll be sea worthy again. I keep watching Flaggs come and go on Ebay drooling over every one.

Wow, I had a Sky-Striker as a kid and it looks like the Flagg could hold 3 in-a-row on it's deck!
