Open a photobucket account, SS (free) Upload the picture. Wa-La, done! and LMAO @ "The Coco Fritos", vega $20 says that the minute SS posts the pictures, those of us that are posting in this thread start singing "Que Bonita Bandera" while chuggin' down a malta. We need someone to make a coqui noise in the background while someone else hands out kenepas to the crowd |

Hey guys I'm from Ponce and I'm currently living in Georgia since I'm gonna go to Art school in September. Anyways enough of me I just wanted to let you guys know that even thou is a little pain in the wallet especially gas money, but most of the stores I would find 25th Anniversary Joes was on the west side in Super K-mart in San German. Transformers and Joes would sit there for months.
Is not a collector area. Also in Toys R us Arecibo there is a good chance of finding new Gijoe stuff. Mayaguez depends. In the north Area is difficult to find anything especially in Plaza Las Americas Mall or Toys R Us close to Plaza. Plaza del Caribe is useless so dont even waste your time, I work at KB toys there for 6 months we would not get any Gijoe stuff for months cause the managers are idiots. By the way from San Juan to Ponce is just 1-hour in half trip. Trust me I lived in Ponce and work on Carolina for 2 years. In Ponce there is a guy who basicly buys every figure to later sell them in comic books conventions twice the price. Plus there is a big collector scene in Ponce. Same as San Juan. My girlfriends checks daily both K-mart and Walmart in Ponce and she only found Snow Job and restocks of wave 3. But I'll keep you posted I'm going to PR in March and I'll be there for 5 days I was planning on checking some of the stores. Anyways hope that helps. Oh and by the way someone was joking about Puerto Rico being Mexico. Well I understand the joke to most people is just that but when you get constantly bashed or make fun of about the same thing all the time it gets highly annoying. The only thing we have in common when it comes to culture is just that we speak spanish and is not even the same spanish they have very distintive accent, just as we have a peculiar way of expressing ourselves. Still no harm done. Let's get back at something we all have in common: Our love for Gijoe. |

Now I really can't wait to see what Snow Storm has to show us..
Hey Thanks Dirtbag? Anything helps so when I go in April I know where to go... It's pretty much the same in Florida. If you speak Spanish Your Cuban. As long as you know where you came from it shouldn't even bother you. |

Is true, I'm actually use to it. Thanks Vega-1
By the way Walmart Super Center in Carretera 14 in Ponce has Wave 3 an 4. My girlfriend call me yesterday pick up a couple of Cobra Air Troopers. She said that they were out of Firefly and Zartan. But lost Stalkers and Shipwrecks. Plus Duke, Roadblock, Gung-Ho, Destro, Cobra Commander and Air Troopers. |
