Let's hang out after you move in or whenever you want to! I'd really like to talk Joes with ya and just hang out.

Yeah, I'd dig that. Still waiting to hear back from the property managers on the place in OCC. I hope they pull head from ass soon, I really like the house and we need to move before I get deployed again.

There is a toy store on Broadway in Englewood that says they have Joes, but the last time I was in there all they had way over priced Spytroops stuff. Been awhile since I've been in there too though.

Thank you for the info.

Usually Hero Headquarters has some vintage stuff. They are in Westminster by the mall

Hawkeye · 11-09-2011, 10:57 PM

Ah, yeah, havent been there in years either. I forgot they were there.

Asher07 · 11-10-2011, 09:18 PM

Yeah I have not been there for awhile either. They are over priced but usually have some loose vintage figures and vehicles

Hawkeye · 11-11-2011, 01:41 AM

Overpriced was my experience as well. There really is no decent toy store in Colorado for vintage stuff.

We had one called Toy Force. Was ran by a kid named Brenden. He was a cool cat. One day I pulled up to trade him some vintage for 25th and the store was closed down. Sucks.

Back in Tampa, there was this place called Emerald City Comics. They had 2 locations, and both stores had TONS AND TONS of vintage GI Joe vehicles and accecories, along with some 25th and Valor vs Venom stuff. And the staff was really friendly and knowlegable.

Man I miss that place. :(
I would give anything to have a place like ECC in Colorado Springs.

Picked up a Crimson Hydra on clearance at the TRU in Colorado Springs. They had a lot of the 30th VAMPs and Black Dragon VTOLs, but no figures.

I am friends with Tyler who owned toy force. When they put in that post office it buried him. He had to give it up. Brenden tried to keep it going through a web site but it didn't work out
