Here are a few pictures of them loose. I love the FANG but they did cheap out on the CLAW, but to get both in on box and keep it at the price point, I understand it.
Not Happy but I understand it. Saves me $$ since I wont be troop building these now. They are going sticker nuts, I had to wipe them down before applying (learned that mistake with the Rattler) and didnt put all the stickers on, looked to cluttered.

Was anybody at ToyCon on Sunday? Some of the MOC Joe vendors were pretty scalperific (one guy in particular) and I still don't know how that guy selling all the bootleg DVDs isn't shut down entirely... I was able to snag another Crimson Guard MOC (Wave 5) for $7, down a whopping buck from the original $8 and a couple of sealed boxes of 1991 Impel Star Trek cards from the card guy in the middle of the room. Haggling rules!

It's funny you should mention that Cobra Legions set since I found it and the Joe set in a box and asked about the price. The guy had to radio his brother-in-law since it was his booth... Good times...

There was that guy (who was obviously smoking some hard core crack to justify that price) and then there was the guy with the tall peg boards near the DVD guy who was selling 25th Joes for inflated prices. I saw him sell a guy a BBQ for $10 saying that he was sick of G.I. Joe and not going to sell them anymore. Then there was another guy on the other side of the room with a couple of BATs on the table that were not priced. When I asked he said they were $15 and asked what everyone else was charging for them. I had this funny mental picture of the dealers shouting around the room right before the show starts and asking what the going rate is for a BAT. What is this-- the ToyCon stock exchange?!?

Ive got a favor to ask.
Im doing a trade with member Fred V. This guy is super paranoid. I sent him an item on friday and he thinks I am lying and trying to screw him. Anyone that has traded with me in the past and is willing to, please PM him and let him know I am legit. He is driving me nuts.

Thanks for trying Flash, even if it didn't work out :P maybe if we're lucky they'll make a 25th one anyway heheh
There where some other guys there selling the old comic packs for 8 bucks that I almost picked up. They seem to be good guys, got a masterpiece Starscream off of them last toycon for 60. Hope ya picked up the legions packs @ 20 bucks they where priced to sell. There where a few deals there, just not on anything too new.
