Does anyone remember this show? Please don't be shy!!! Speak up!!!
AlpineGarrison.com • Ogden Toy Show April 2005 - Friday, April 1, 2005 This is the only thing I could find on it....... Click through the pictures and such... It wasn't only Star Wars, but a lot of different toys, games and just about everything. I remember buying a lot of ARAH Joes there. I actually made a guy feel bad about selling me a 1989 BackBlast for 2 dollars too much. (Not proud of that either...) I went back and he sold it for $2 less... I'm wondering what happened to it and if it could ever get started again... Shows like this were fun!!!! Any ideas? Not sure where to even begin.... There was also a thing called Utah Mountain Con (name?).....? It was mostly Sci-fi, but it seemed kinda cool and I believe that lasted 2 or 3 years... Here's an article that somewhat touches this subject of cons not toy shows, but relevant. Salt Lake City Arts & Entertainment - Big Shiny Robot!: SLC Comic-Con? |

Do not remember seeing anything like that. However would love to have some sort of get together for the Joes here in Utah. I wonder if we could put all our heads together and create one. Are there any active G.I. Joe clubs here?

Thank you!! I called that Kelly guy several times and left messages but he has never called. I said I was interested in joining the club. On one I even begged him to call. But he has not. Not so sure why either. There is an address I might send a letter.

I was up in Logan today. Checked the Walgreens. Same Artic Destro and PoC Commander that were there last spring. I don't think I'll check again.

I was in Riverdale Target yesterday. They had about three cases of Retaliation figs on an end cap. No Joe troopers, but they had everything else.
I also found PoC Hawk in Ogden Macey's, of all places. Grabbed him, left PoC Blowtorch. R.

$10.49. I was shocked. I've started checking grocery stores ever since I found Jungle Trooper at Lee's in Cache Valley. Someone obviously knows about it though--last time I checked, they just had 30th peg warmers. Now they're getting PoC. Hopefully they'll restock with more awesomeness.

I was told at Walgreens that they get their big truckload of toys for Christmas on october 25th. Don't know if all stores get them on the same day though.
