I stopped at the Hillsboro Wally on the way back from your area and scored a Charbroil and a Night Adder. It looks like he has black tats but I am not sure of the variant colors.
Oh Strider. That Battle Wagon that the dude said did not work... all it needed was a good cleaning in the battery compartment and 4 new C batteries and it works. The missle launcher works but there is some kind of problem. If I ever get it to firing missles then I will let you know. I may have to paint it because of it's loud colors! |

Problem with that is, Walmart got all of the grey ones when they finnally released that figure and Target was sold out or selling out of them with the black wolf. To date if I find a single one of those Snake Eyes its usually at walmart and target and it's the gray one, have not seen any black in a long time. That was definetly a running change. If Walmart and target and TRU start puttin gout tons of either revision for the Night Adder then it may be equally available. But that all depend son if they ordered enough of the first run (Like the black coat rex vs. White coat wave and Black/Grey timber waves) that case or the revision and acutally put them out before the waves disappear to be ordered at all for restocking.

Nice, that was it? Good thing the old batteries didn't wreck the mechanics in there.

After I tone down those loud colors and make it look more respectable, maybe I can sell it one day for more than people are asking for it on ebay. Can you believe that Battle Wagon was only 16.00 in the 1990's??? I guess that's how you know GI JOE was on the downfall.

Yeah it'd be pretty cool if the colours were different. Still like that Avalanche the best out of that whole lot though. Must be the Canadian in me!

You're kidding, right? It snows every 5 years or so. What's annoying is I'll drive up to the Northeast for Xmas and won't see a single flake of snow the entire time. WTF!?

That's global warming for you! It used to be that it snowed every Christmas Day back home. That stopped after a while. Then it got the point where you could see green grass. On Christmas Day. It's odd to me is all.

This is what they think is causing the larger hole then whats over the north and south poles in the western/south atlantic. The Van Allen radation belts are being litterlaly snapped in that region allowing high energy protons from the solar wind to reach down to about satelite depth in the upper ionosphere... But no snow an dice is nice, if it stayed around 80-90 here year round I would be in heaven...I hate the cold and snow, move to siberia if you want it Batman- the blue tatt one is pretty easily visualized as blu etats, they are almsot babey blue so they stand out well where as the black tatts are are pretty dulled out... |

I guess everyone has been to my Wal-Mart (423 and Eldorado). I hid the black tatt Night Adder because I thought you guys wanted that one. He's behind the $49 accellerator suit Dukes. Jungle Rip has been there on the pegs for a few days now. Never saw the 2pks there. Had to get my GH/Copperhead down in the Colony.
If the WM playsets make it to my area, I want the Surveillance Port badly. If someone doesn't want the Tripwire from the LAW set, I'l take him too. Roadblock would be ok too. Also want a Grand Slam but can't decide which I like best, the Target one with the glider, or the WM playset one. I guess whoever makes me the first/best deal will cause me to choose. That is if anyone has them that wants to trade it. I was scrolling through my Resolute saved pics/screenshots the other day and noticed that Rock-n-Roll has the same tattoos they put on Bench Press. Should make it easier to make Resolute RnR for those who made Slaughter and used 2 BPs to make it happen. Also, while watching ROC again, I noticed HD does have a black patch on his knee when wearing his "greens". Guess that's how it got passed on to BP. Also noticed more romantic links between Scarlett and SE, and could more easily deflect the Ripcord angle. Dukes banter was more fun the 2nd time too. I caught more of the humor this time too. I missed the "real like hair" comment just before the "kung-fu grip" comment when I saw it in the theater. Last, the recent Target coupon (prints at register) that works on Joes, TFs and SW is random to guests. It only came out in 1 of every 20 customers or so, but seemed to be linked to higher dollar purchases and if a toy was bought. It did print for a couple low dollar purchases, but not very frequently. This data comes from 2 8-hr shifts at Target yesterday (Sat) and today. Happy hunting!
