thanks man, and i do like dusty, but i actually got a bunch of artwork, and the main reason i picked up this dusty set was because it was the most complete set he had, it had everything from the original sketches of the figure, original sketches of the accessories, color studies, presentation art, etc.. what i posted was only a portion of the set. it's very tough to find the artwork for all of these different stages of the production process all for one figure. usually different collectors have random individual pieces. these all came from ron rudat, who was the lead artist/designer for gi joe back in the 80's, so he still had these sets together. usually when they get sold out on the open market, they get split up because people only want/can afford one or two pieces so they buy those and then the others are sold to other collectors, but fortunately since it all came from the original artist, he kept them all together for all these years

One week away! MD Joe Meetup on Friday, October 9th at 7pm in Columbia,MD. We are gonna meetup and hang out at the Second Chance Saloon (address below). Hoping any MD Tankers that can make it will drop by, have a beer or two, talk some Joe maybe do a little trading or selling. Bring some Joe stuff to swap or sell. If you are thinking about coming, post what you may have to trade or sell. Post what you are interested in so somebody may bring it. Have something really cool you just want to show off like pre-production art or a custom, bring it to show and tell. We really want to get something started here and make this happen everything three or four months. Sound off if you can make it on Friday and let us know what you are looking for and what you got to get rid off. I got a new in package Marine Devastation two pack with the new Gung Ho and Shadow Guard to get rid off. If we can get 5 or more Tankers to show (not including me) , I'll pull names from a hat to see who wins it. If we don't get 5, it will be available for trades. It goes for $30 on eBay.

Reminder that this Friday is the MD Joe Meetup at the Second Chance Saloon at 7pm. Address is below. Hope you can make it. Bring something to show, trade or sell. Probably best to leave trade and sell items locked safely in car and bring in pictures on your phone. Your call on that. If we get 5 or more (not including me), I'll have a prize drawing for a Marine Devestation two pack. Simply names in a hat kinda thing. Hope we get a turn out. I believe the Columbia Toys R Us is near by so you can make the most of your trip.

I've been watching each time this meeting has come up. Money has been the main reason why I haven't come and timing.
Its a two hour drive for me to get there and I do not drink so the setting of a bar is not really something I prefer but I guess it is doable. I am more after trading/buying/selling but I only collect vintage items and international. I use to do the new stuff but I got rid of all that at joecon dallas. The thrill of the hunt was good and all but the new stuff does not hold a place in my heart like the vintage does. Although the gentle giant stuff looks cool but expensive. If a 6 inch line came out and they looked like the originals ( oring and all or very close to it) I may hunt for those. Berean3906 couldn't make it this time or if he did I probably would have showed up just to check it out. I had someone else that I told about it but he forgot. In VA we had one at a ruby tuesday in alexandria a while back and I would say 8 people showed at that. It wasn't bad just kinda weird taking joes into a food joint. I have traveled to florida twice now for meets. One at a persons house and then one in the back room of a comic book shop. Both of those went really well. I would say we had well over 30 people show up for those. Next time one comes up I will talk with Berean and if he goes and I have the money, I will most likely come to.

I hear you on all points. I would like to get something going on a regular basis but setting is an issue. Bar/restaurant is easy but not the best setting for showing or trading. Plus you are expected spend money there.I suggested the location in Columbia because it started in the MD sightings thread and Columbia seemed like a good central location based on who expressed interest. But if VA people are interested in getting together than no reason it can't be closer to DC/northern VA.
Any input is appreciated. Captain... I would love to attend a VA meet-up. Drop me a line if you here of one. |

I meet a lot of people at the local shows around. As for meets, I am just not sure. Maybe a food court at a mall or a game/comic shop or a park even. Food places tend to make you buy stuff, not let you stay long, and won't let you bring things in. I don't really know the area that well for things. Where I live I do but no one would come out to where I am at thats why I have to travel to get joes.
