8th St WM stocked what appears to be 2 cases of wave 5 as there was 4 each of everybody. Picked up 2 each of the Cobra Trooper & Steel Brigade figures.

Again, I'm just throwing this out there.

Well for people who want a meet and one is offered there's too much crying about it for me to go any further....... Sorry undead but like I said the majority would vote.. But looks like the July 16 or 17 won't work for Otto either but he'll let me know which weekend either the one before or after he'll be around.
Also offered undead to give us options for a Springs meet and he didn't offer up anything. I haven't worked for 6 yrs now due to my diabetes and I can't carry a bottle of regular insulin and glucometer to ever store and all the way down to the Springs and have to make those who are with me stop everything if I start having a insulin reaction or it being too high, was trying to help out by offering ideas only to have them all shot down by the ones who WANTED to meet badly.....

I named a LOT of stores in Denver but you said NOTHING about what stores in the Springs have Joes to hunt down. I don't know the mgrs down in the Springs so no way I can ask them to order in the Joes.. but I do know the two mgrs near me and can ask and they will order them.. So far I'm seeing 3 people on here that has said they'd be interested... not a whole lot of interest. Mongoose who's in Denver and yourself are all that's shown a interest in this.. and me and my two buds who are in Denver..SO that means Denver so far and one member in the Springs off of JoeDio's (snipesfg17).

IF you want the Springs lets hear your plan for it as MY plan was for Denver metro area hunt.. I'm hearing two wally's in the Springs "MAY" have Joes.... I know of two that DO have Joes here in Denver and multiple others as well. And the two that DO I can get some ordered in by that date as well. snipesfg17 said he'd be willing to drive up to Denver so that means Denver is leading so far.

I'm a 15 yr. old GI Joe collector, and I suppose I can't grasp things or have as good an understanding as the rest of you adult collectors. But, I know when I've reached my limits. I can't take this bashing. If ya'll want to have a meet, you can work it out without me for the time being, because apparently I'm not contributing anything to this effort. Sorry guys, best of luck.

The walmart on the south end of the Springs on I-25 off of Cimmeron has multiples of the new Hawk, CC, JungleBAT & Blowtorch. They also had a single helmeted Thor, but no other figs from that wave. from JoeCustoms.

undead I'm sorry wasn't trying to bash you was just trying to get you to throw some ideas up which you never did.. And there may not be a lot of 30-40 yr olds who might want a 15 yr old hanging out while we're talking old time Joes, women, customs, ideas and such.
Though do have to tease undead on one point ... glad I grew up in KS where we got to learn to drive and get a learners permit at 14.. lol ;)

Boy that must have been nice. I'm trying to get with an instructor so I can take a driving course, but we got to fork out 500 dollars for it, PLUS I got to take a written test. What ever happened to those simpler times?

We actually got HS credits for taking a class as well.. It was the last class that they had for HS credits... But they think since its KS they have farmers kids that need or are driving at a earlier age so thats why its so low there. Plus we did have tests.. Everyone has written tests its life. ;)

Hey all! Great news! I can go to Denver for a meet! That'll probably be the place for this meet after recent discussion, so let's pick a date and a plan that works for everybody, and let's do this!

[Un-dead Soldier]

Probably refer to RougeTiger's plan for a hunt and a meal.

Stupid denver area.....nothing worse than a failed hunting trip

Where did you go and what were you looking for? Stapleton Wally world had 2 CC's but that was it in new stuff....Walgreens off of Miss had Low Light, Suitcase Destro at Walgreens off of 48th and Tower. Didn't stop and look at the Colfax one... Ross' had the Doom Cycle and Ghost hawk for $7.99 each....
