Found the exclusives and enough of the Pit Commando wave to choke a horse.. still no Dr. Lewis wave. and only one of the 5 Wal Mart stores in the area has done a reset...so to speak. They basically moved everything that was in the Isle display to pegs.. So it's all wave 1 crap. Nothing new at all.. Trying to find the CP's.. As for the Target vehicles.. blah! The Eel is the only one worth getting. As a Completest, I will buy at least one of each.. definitely buying a few more of those eels.. Going to see if I can swap the SE with cycle's head with the PP SE.. Looks like the neck post is long enough unlike the ROC Commando version where the PP SE head wont fit him. Or i may use the Proto head from my Arctic SE since I plan to buy another one at retail. LOL
Snow, I understand the crunch. I normally would not be able to let these figures go, but unless they are damn good figs, you will be lucky to get $5 for them. All 25th figures have just dropped off unless its a variant. I've had about 20 Crimson Guards, 10 Silver sigil troops and 20 Red ninja from the get go.. I have slowly dwindled them down through trades.. cause no one want to buy them. Hell I can sell My ROC figs on ebay even with a low shipping and a .99 starting bid. LOL

My plans for a Resolute Barnoness failed. The PP Baroness body does not match corrctly upon deeper inspection. Her upper arms, lower arms, torso, head, face and even hair are all wrong! Dunno why everyone keeps saying she is the base figure for her, it's totally off the mark, but peopel are still calling Wild Bill from the new Dragonhawk XH-1 thing Resolute wild bill which is also totally wrong (peeps need to go back and watch Resolute again!). So not going to to bother with the baroness here to hoping they DO HER right and not use this pathetic body to do it blah. Another big problem is I wanted to use her glasses but they are a permanent attachment feature on her head :(
The Rex figure is kinda neat once I fixed his eye, but he looks too much like a cross between Dr. no, that bad guy from Bruce Lee's Enter The Dragon and Darth vader with his helmet off.... I really like the Duke in his Accelerator Suit though, he looks pretty cool standing up next to the rest of them. I wish the movie masks were blackened/tinted like they are on the figures. Need to find me onther one of these so I can make a few more Joes in the suits. Need to paint his neck black though, dunno why they left it with so much skin on it the card art shows more of a collar at the top.

Hey Crimson.. I was in Killen yesterday and found the EEL wave crusher and the Grand Slam glider... KMART still has not really put out anything. It looks like crap over there.

Yeah i figured so much, K-mart is uesless, luckily they have nothing to get anyway that even strikes a chord with me. The 4 pack of Turds can rot maybe it will end up at ross stores eventually for fodder down the line LOL. The only reason to get it would be to have some matching joes to go with the Repeater+Law and Order+Dial Tone(female pft)+Footloose TRU exclusive set. I really really do not like the idea of having every Joe made redone each wave in a different color camo pattern. I prefer the Desert camo but they already are delving into other styles and the the digital pattern is looking to be the next color change over the standard blue camo the first series had which did not match hardly from figure to figure in hue and color. That is really annoying, why the originalty of the colors and paint schemes of the 80s made more individualistic sense, they were unique and not just reapints in 45 camo patterns!

Went on a rampage search today all over dallas and neeted me some more figures woot. I brought home another 2 Paravipers, freaking Target off of what was it Parker and 75 had so many I would have come home with around 15 no joke LOL. Tons of Eels out there too, already got 2 of them don't need anymore to go with my 8 25th Eels. Snagged up 5 Pit Commandos, thought of a cool idea for them so I got some while I could since there were none left after I picke dup these 5 in just about every location from NW to SW across town from Allen to SW Ft. Worth. Also grabbed another 2 Duke AC6 suits.
Several had the Hyrda and Dragonhawk XH-1. One store I was in some dude's wife was YELLING at him big time in front of all the customers and employees. Kept sayng he was such a dick at the top of her lungs to be buying toys at his age and shit and that they need food and other things in this "economy" not toys. I was about to tell the whore to stfu but then again he might like the abuse...I thought what a bitch when I looked at her shopping cart full of "home decor" items and little skirts, bathing suits and other girl clothes/crap. The guy just wanted a Snake Eyes and she was acting like his mother. That was the lamest shit I ever saw... Lotta Helix's out there as well as Flash's. Dallas of course has tons of the Rex lewis wave, I saw every figure from his today at all the targets up and down 75. Tried a couple of TRUs nothing new, they are kinda better than walmart but less than target right now with Joe Support. Too many of the first few waves still on the shelves along with a million BBQs >< Found this guy on ebay today, did not buy him but if he is a single card he will be an awsome source of fixed Duke Arms and is a perfect base for a proper Leatherneck (color by numbers of course)...one G.I.Joe Movie Rise Of Cobra duke loose - eBay (item 260457065358 end time Aug-04-09 17:38:36 PDT) All I got today.

It's hot outside every day and these are stressful times. People break over the silliest things.
The girl & I went to Target yesterday to grab sandwiches for lunch and I picked up another Accel Duke. My woman didn't fuss one damn bit. ;) I finished another Helix repaint and two Accel Dukes (Blue with Red highlights and Yellow with Blue highlights) so I'll take pics of those soon. I will get my small Halo-ish army built. lol.
