Hey all, I'm curious is there a site or sites that have a compiled listing of Joe stuff that is limited to Regional Cons, shows, sites etc.
Not necessarily one of a kind items, but more like TriStateVipers recently did with their custom Viper you could order... The Tri-State G.I.Joe Collectors Forum! :: View topic - Exclusive Tri-State Viper action figure is HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reason I ask is because I'm compiling a list of such things and I want to make it as complete as possible. Now if there is no such site maybe we can start listing items and links here. Thanks all! ************************************************** The List is started....please add any you might know of with links or pics if possible. Desimone -Jinx -Race Car Driver -Police Officer. Canadian Joe Con 2004 - Joe Canuck 2005 - no figure was made 2006 - Black Ice 2007 - Shiver 2008 - Snowbank and Timbit 2009 - Chacal Noir, Frostback, and Back-Stop Canadian Joe con Chrome Hisstank Sacramento GI Joe Show Rat Patrol -King Rat [2005] -Reed Rat [2006] Tri-State Vipers -Tri State Viper Joe Customs -Lt.

Isn't this a fairly simple custom anyone could make?
I'm all about supporting tri-state vipers and all but it's just a handpainted custom. Couldn't a custom list by small groups be endless and never complete? What would be the criteria, I'm making a Cobra thrown and I plan on molding about 5 for a few people who have been cool to me. Would that count? What about stuff like the chinese knock-off headhunter drivers floating around out there, at least they seem like they were at least produced at Hasbro China? I think it's cool what your trying to do, I just think it's pretty much impossible |

YoJoe doesn't list them because they are considered "fan customs" and aren't part of the official Hasbro canon.
I don't know where a comprehensive list exists, but I bet we could build one fairly quickly, as I don't think there have been too many done. Of course, Desimone did Jinx, Race Car Driver, and Police Officer for his Joe shows in the early 90s. The Canadian Joe Con has been doing exclusives since 2004, with only one 'dead' year: 2004 - Joe Canuck 2005 - no figure was made 2006 - Black Ice 2007 - Shiver 2008 - Snowbank and Timbit 2009 - Chacal Noir, Frostback, and Back-Stop The Sacramento GI Joe Show did two exclusive figures, King Rat in 2005 and Reed Rat in 2006. There were plans to do one each year and complete the "rat squad", but I don't think they ever did another one after Reed Rat. As you mentioned, the Tri-State Vipers did their exclusive Viper figure. Joe Customs (or at least one of their members) has done an exclusive for a few years now, this years' was Lt. Stone and 2009's was called "Coyote". I can't find anything about prior years' figures though something in me wants to say they did a Big Lob a few years back..... Other than those groups, I don't know of any that have surfaced as even a blip on the radar.....but then again, this isn't my normal area of Joe collecting so I wouldn't be surprised to learn of more.

All good questions.
Personally I would say any item made for distribution of any kind by a convention or website. That would be the priority of this list. BUT I wouldn't exclude other items like the figures your molding. You'll be sending those out so its one of the rarest collectables I can think of. Even if only 5 people own them. I would say the only exclusion would be one of a kind customs. My thought process is to cover a comprehensive list of pictures, and or links for items that are too small for yojoe to have considered listable, and one as for the one of a kind customs they are pretty much covered by JoeCustoms. |

Well what about people who sell multiple customs on ebay, that would be some sort of distribution.
For instance Storm Shadow forever sets The Crimson Spetznaz ROC/POC Elite Ice Viper (it's not an official release, but it's a Hasbro produced figure) Same with the Desert Ripcord I think you could even throw the Funskool pepsodent set in this. I'm not trying to be difficult, actually I would love to see this list and would be happy to help anyway I can, but in my collection I probably have like 30 or more different figures that would fit into this category and I don't think one of them is on Volleydans list |
