I was out of the country playing GI Joe for 15 months in 2007-08, so I missed all of that. Came back to find like 5 figures at K-mart that looked like beefed up versions of the originals with a bunch of extra stuff. I thought Fastdraw was a little excessive in 87. Shook my head and didn't look any further. If they had had vehicles on the shelf, I probably would have spent the deployment money my wife didn't spend on toys.
Sometimes you can get lucky on ebay with some of the re-releases of the vintage vehicles but like everything else these days prices are inflated. The rumor is the retro line that is being released will have a Hiss Tank and Awe Strike - that is something to keep an eye out for. |

Nah, no worries. My buddy and I were excited about it, talking on the plane back about what we hoped they would have. Seems like the re-releases are the same prices or more than the vintage stuff. I did find a toy store nearby that had decent prices and no crazy shipping costs. I bought 5 or 6 vehicles and a Clutch to go with my new VAMP.
