Just saw red Hiss tanks at the Hialea Walmart, but no figures at all.

Its the only place Ive found wave 3 so far. Heltskelt should be finishing semester soon so he can be our eyes and ears on the Kendall front. I'll keep the Doral area in check and well Galactron....the man simply gets around. Hes like a one man first strike team.
Stay frosty everyone.

If the BBTS exclusives are 6-7 dollars each the club toys should be about the same, $10-12 max or they should try harder to make every fig in the subscription outstanding. At $10 people will still be paying $30-$50 for the figs they want. I just don't think there are that many people willing to pay $300 plus a subscription fee for 13 toys.
anyway I just got a 1983 gi joe wood burning kit and the only pics on google images is the one from yojoe and the box for mine is a lot better, but with a few creases and edge wear. Does anyone know what a fair price for this thing is? and everything on the inside is mint and complete. |

I'll keep my eyes peeled, guys! I bought most of my wave 3 stuff on-line, so I'm really only after Storm Shadow - I said that to be clear I won't scoop up all the Technos and Cobra troopers before I tell you about it! <XD

Know how I know this? Because you posted a declassified flyer which was meant for fun as a NEWS ITEM. No one would ever tell you anything because the VERY FIRST THING you would do is post it here. Probably incorrectly. |

If anyone can get the two BBTS sets that have about the same amount of tooling as these, for about $89.99 + shiping for 14 figures, why should anyone pay over $400.00 for 12? The club can keep their subscription I wil not be buying it.

Knowing the "Club" and price they charged for the convention Dialtone carded figure, it would be about $25.00, multiply by 12, tha's about $300.00 for the twelve figures. add shipping for 1 pack of 2 figures being shipped per month, let's say $10.00, that's about $60.00 adding to $360.00, plus the Officer membership, because without it you can't purchase the subscription, that's $45.00 totaling to a whopping $405.00 that is more than what they charge to be an Attendee to the convetion, and that icludes a hotel room, passes to all the avents, and a set of figures.

Dumped a whole bunch of carded POC figures in the Toys 4 Tots box. Mostly duplicates I don't need or want anymore. I was gonna sell 'em but screw it, I need the positive Karma!

The club can keep their subscription I wil not be buying it. It's a conundrum because I would love to support the idea of the figure sub. if it meant we could get the vintage characters that we haven't been able to receive yet but I have a strong disdain for the club and how they handle things so I hate the idea of leaving the success of this in their hands as well as the idea of everyone having to rely on them. In the end, I suppose it's a moot point because it solely relies on the individual emphasis we all put on the characters being released and the funds we have at our disposal. |

Hit some of my ” secret stash” Wal Marts in the Bay Area. Usually when I can't find new figures, they hit those first. But of course they had nothing but peg warming Duke, CC and SE. Also counted 13 IGs at one store. This happens with every wave and the shit drives me crazy. We don't get anything around here until months after everyone else.
