Did some investigating about the BATS at DG. Turns out...if they fall out of the system...they have to dispose (as destroy) the item. No mark down...no freebie...no exceptions....not even to a charity.
So those BATS you saw are most likely in the trash now. You ought to see what is in the dumpster behind the store...LOL. But seriously....this has made me hate DG now for not even donating the stuff to Goodwill or something like Target does. that explains alot then. dammit I'm too proud to dumpster dive. lmao. Just picked up some joes from TJ Maxx today. nothing special. 3 tiger force Dukes a para viper and I almost picked up a vamp with double clutch for $12.99 but I wanted to go by Walmart and get that Corps Assault vehicle to customize. I also took a swing by Big Lots and picked up some Eels and Bazooka troopers for some customs. I also came across something called a Secret Saturdays jet for $5 that thing is friggin awesome, I'm going to go back and buy a few more to make into 2-man crafts. Only this time I'm NOT going to put that damn handle in. I still can't get that thing out. I guess I'm going to have to crack it open and get at it. oh and Cray, Yeah I should have gone to Walmart when you said. I DID find 1 titanium man behind ALL the pegs but no Guardsman. I did however pick up another Crimson Dynamo to make a custom, I got a few B.A.T parts with his name on them. And I also picked up the 'Beefy' comic Iron man. I yanked that coupon out of one and the lady at the checkout was almost in shock by it. I had a hearty laugh at her expense. Last edited by Regilan Viral; 06-21-2010 at 06:58 PM.. |

Snagged a few of the 25th Rock n Roll's, another Tiger force Duke and some Eels,Para Vipers, and another basic wraith, form TJ Maxx.
The Vamp was still sitting there. I'm torn whether to get it or not as I am wanting that The Corps tank for a custom and they're both the same price {$13}. |

I am currently taking apart that The Corps assault vehicle you and I talked about. it's in stage 1 of a new paint app and some modifications, thet thing is awesome. I'm also going to get that tank this weekend too, I took a good look at it when I picked up the assault vehicle and I decided that indeed it is worth it to invest some time into it. Although the guts are going to need some serious work to let joes sit/stand in it. |

Dude you need to bring some of that stuff down here. I got alot of ideas floating about but not enough parts to make them reality.

lol think I started getting stuff when my divorce started last June and have prob only finished 8 customs. Just no time anymore, if you ever need something though hit me up. this is what I have in my fodder (not my collection mind you)
funny thing is everything I got there has a plan behind it lol If you would rather trade I have some Neo Vipers, and B.A.T.s available. As far as Joe scale vehicles, my grandparents bought my son a Bad Guys jeep from Dollar General a few months back, and let me tell you it's awesome! It's a Chap Mei toy, and it's in their Police Line. If I can remember I'll try and find more information when I get home. I would buy more of those Corps! toys to customize, but I don't have a workshop to do that stuff in. I especially don't have anywhere to paint, and my wife said that I have to remodel the kitchen before I get my workshop. Last edited by Brcall; 06-22-2010 at 12:04 PM.. |

I disassemble either at the kitchen table or in her parents basement as they live close by and we go there alot. modding takes place anywhere I can do it. and I usually paint outside or in her parents lower garage. My wife really doesn't like my hobbies much, but I tell her I can do this or hunt. Would she prefer boxes of plastic 'wobots' as she calls anything I like be it gi joes to transformers and everything between. Or would she like animal heads and guns around the house? lol |
