Lets see, I hit 4 wallys last night (Belmont, 485, 85 (exit 60) and Lincolton) and nothing but a few wave 11 figs. Hit 2 Targets and zilch. Oh well. Gas is cheap and I am board so I will go out tonight. Thank goodness for old Sid, still got to pick up my loot.

Went to Chapel Hill for a bit today. Toys R Us had next to nothing (except a lot of Crimson Guard 5-packs) while Wal-Mart on 15/501 had a whole lot of Stalkers & Snow Jobs. I did manage to find a Viper & Black Storm Shadow, though (the first of either I've seen around here).

I was there this morning and nothing. I read your post and shot up there (I live 5 min away) and nothing has changed. They still have the same vehicles on the shelf and the figs have been untouched. Were they on the aile? Or were they on the top stock. Please let us know. Thanks.

Picked up wave 13 as well as a Water Moccasin and Sky Hawk from SidDarth the other day and finally got around to opening them. No, I will not call them by the names printed on the box because that's not what these vehicles are. Aside from that gripe, these vehicles are absolutely incredible. The plastic quality on these feels just as good if not superior to the vintage models. The sculpting on each mold is quite impressive and shows a nice amount of detail. The drivers of both vehicles fit well, even after I replaced Copperhead with his comic pack counterpart. I really don't see what the big deal is with Lift Ticket's face other than the semi-glossy paint apps...

The Resolute figures have grown on me in a big way. Welcome to the 21st century, GI Joe. I can't wait to see how the animation turns out.

Well, I finally got around to stickering the Rattler and Conquest last night. I know there have been some complaints about the stickers but I really didn't have any issues with them. Unlike some of the labels on the shiny sticker sheets, the glue didn't pull off of these.

Besides that, nothing new to report.

Hey guys, I'm in CA now, but I'm from NC (Dallas, NC, or the Gastonia area to anyone not familiar with it)... I grew up in Dallas for the first 18 years of my life, then called Raleigh, NC my permanent home for the next 7 years...

So I'll be in Gastonia and Raleigh for about 2 weeks during the end of December for family, but I'll be out and about, anyone there got an extra Blowtorch who could meet up?

I'd be willing to pay $15 or so for him, and that will satiate my wave 13 hunger, since the others don't impress me and I can wait.

I've also got an extra Eel, 2 spare B.A.T.s and some others that I'd be willing to trade, but would need to know so I can pack them with me on the trip.

Dunno how much I can bring back with me, but on my drive to Raleigh from Gastonia I plan on making a few hunt-stops.

I've got a carry-on bag that I'm bringing a Wii with me for my sis, so I'll have at least a duffel's worth to bring back some stuff.

How is Raleigh/Gastonia for Joes? It was fairly dry on 25th Joes when I left in January, but there's been an explosion since then with all the new stuff. 2008's been a kickass year for us, despite all our bitching. Where I moved to in CA is chock full of nerds, and our distribution sucks, so it's hard to find much at retail right now.

Anyways, just a hi, and a heads up if anyone could meet up over the Christmas time while I'm back home. I joined the 'Tank when I was already moved to CA, so I kind of missed the chance to do much Joe-hunting in my native land.

(BTW, not to steal a thread or crash a party... Tell me to EFF off if that's my place. Also, didn't realize there were so many active NC Tankers!)
