They have several in varied shape. But I think for a decent one, they are asking about $700.
Still wouldn't hurt to contact them and find out how much they would want for one.. but unless you plan to drive to Kokomo, IN then shipping will still cost you. Another thing you could do, is wait till Joe Con, there has always been at least one at ever Con I have been to. And they are usually fairly priced. Last year there was one for $250 that was in good shape and had the box.

I think by the end of the year when I get my yearly bonus there should be another good option. If not I am sure there will be one AFA sitting there and ill snag it break open that acrylic and let loose sone awesome I am not to worried about it loosing value, worst case scenario is I donate my whole collection to my brothers to young sons, ones 1 and the others 2 right now so in a few years time I am sure to have them going Joe crazy lol...the 2 year old is already notciing my Cobra Army, trying to create a new generation of kids that don';t need Duke Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow to play with Joes... lol

Um... the Con is going to be in TX this year. pretty much guaranteed. So it would cost you the gas to get down to the Con. As for the price.. I usually only take $700-$800 with me and manage to afford the Con exclusives, hotel, gas and anything extra i want. I bought a Flagg from the Con. in Frisco.. drove it back home and then came back stayed at the hotel and still bought other things. It can be done for less than a grand easily.

No, the Club said they won't be going back to Cali. any time soon, the market there wasn't big enough and they can't compete with SDCC.. so they like to remain central and east coast since that is where Hasbro is.
Plus all when you follow the Con history.. they have started repeating the states and changing the cities.. for some. They have already gone back to Kansas City, Providence, RI and Orlando.. so following pattern.. That would mean either New Orleans or another city in LA, or TX.. and since TX has been mentioned several times from reliable sources.. and two cities have come up.. Austin and San Antonio. So my money is TX for 2012.

CG, better get your Flagg for sure after seeing that Club Topside!
You'll need somewhere to display him. I'm glad I got mine. No more searching eBay or having it in the back of my mind as a must have. Sounds like that's where you're at!
