Like the title says, New member with the holy grail of G.I. Joe toys. I've come across this forum before but never joined. Well after 31yrs I finally aquired a U.S.S Flagg. My brother and I wanted this Joe toy since we first saw the toy catalog and t.v. commercial back in 1985, parents said no due to the price.
Well my current story goes: I found a eBay member selling a Flagg for $575.00+ $65.00 shipping or best offer. His pictures showed everything laying out side by side, plus some extra Joe figures. Seller said he got it from a estate sale, doesn't know how to assemble it and knows very little about it or if it's even complete. I could see some of what was missing but not all, So I decided to make and offer, I came in with a lowball offer of $200 and I'll pick it up saving him the hassel of shipping it(he was only 1hr away from my house) plus it'll show me how much he's willing to budge on his price. He responded with $300 free pickup. made sure my wife was ok with me buying this, My wife said I can do what I wanted since it was within what I was looking to spend, I told my wife I'll think about it lets just finish our plans for the day and I'll get back to him. Well 2hrs later I get a message from the guy saying $270 free pick up, told my wife I'm pulling the trigger, I'm not gonna pass this one up, but since the guy came back with a lower offer in a short amount of time I replied back to the seller with $250 cash I'll pick it up today only, it'll save you money from the eBay seller fees, PayPal's cut and the hassle of shipping. He responded with his phone number and address(YES!!).
I'm very pleased with my purchase. I get it home to assemble it and check to see whats missing.
I was shocked it's almost complete and it's in really great shape, stickers too! I'll post pic's once I get it moved to the table I just bought to place it on. It'll be stored in my basement. My plans are to complete it, get new stickers for it, already sent Cobrastickers.com a email but haven't got a response yet. Maybe someone here knows if their stickers are precut or if I have to cut them?
Now on with the missing parts:
1. rocket launcher= got a complete one off eBay
2. 5 of the 6 missles= I only need 2 now.
3. the flag post
4. the entire antenna mast assembly
5. rear fantail railing
6. 1 bulkhead door(wasn't missing, it's just broke)
7. stern and wheel= got the assembly off eBay
8. purge vavle
9. arrestor string and 2 arrestor base's
10. yellow crane hook
11. 1 hand rail stair
12. bow ladder= got one off eBay
13. microphone battery cover
14. 1 deck ladder= got one off eBay
15. Admiral's chair
16. Admiral Keel-Haul's pistol
17. bomb rack
18. both anchors
19. tow vehicle assembly
20. fuel trailer assembly
21. instructions sheet
If anyone here has these items and wants to sell/trade please let me know. I know they can found on eBay but I prefer to buy as many pieces at one time to save on shipping and 99% of the eBay sellers only have 1-2 items I need from my list.
