Hell those cheap ones were the best for army building and costumizing. I wish I could find them around here...

I haven't tried any customizing yet. Was reading a post about someone thinking of using computer parts to make custom bases and that did get me thinking since I have alot of old computer parts I could use.
I didn't have any money when I saw those joes at that dollar general but even if I did I don't think I would pick them up they just looked too cheap haha and I wasn't thinking of customizations yet. The VvV baroness was tempting because she came with a gun, but them i took at look at her face and it looked messed up so I didn't bug my friend I was with to loan me a couple of bucks haha. I might get into customizing way down the road, but for now there is too many vintage things I want for my collection and some of this new stuff is making me want it to but not all of it. |

They switched the body from the shocktrooper body (dark blue patches on bottom of sleeves) to the last snake eyes body (ribbed sweater). Also several of the accesories are now molded in different colors or lack paint apps. ( 2nd version bazooka rockets are brown, shovel not painted on pack pack, M4 bayonet isn't painted etc)

It may be that time of year. Found a ROC polar sharc and a MARS trooper 3 pack at Ross in Landstown. They are stocking up on all sorts of toys

Trooper packs are easy to find, but he had very good luck with the Sharc

If you actually shop at gabriel brothers my comments above was not meant to be bad against that company itself. It was meant as a shock towards so many places carrying joes. |
