I went to college in Florida (Florida Tech in sunny Melbourne). JoeCon is awesome and as you can see from Destro's Picks, there are some cool things brewing.

That is when you push your way in. I have done that many times before and I dare someone to try and keep me from looking

I actually wasn't even going to bother, I don't need anything right now, until wave 9 hits. But the group was mainly teenagers, emo ones at that, and they probably were too worried to do anything like that.

EMOS? In OUR GiJoes? This is MADNESS!



Which asshole was it? I've seen the card shop guy, and I've seen another guy (who looks like just a plain guy) hit the toy isle with a shopping cart, loading whatever he sees. The last time I saw him was maybe late last year, he was loading up shit loads of marvel legends, 501st Legends clones, and various other items. He must have had $400 worth in his cart.

At least there's only one of them. Around where I am there are a couple of Joe guys known as "the Stinky Brothers" I'm sure you can imagine why.

I bet I know who the plain looking guy was...he's a friend of mine, has the biggest collection I have ever seen! Just tons of stuff! He likes to army build to say the least.

Nah, this was not a casual collector, couldn't have been. I went to the MJ Walmart one day, right after a MASSIVE toy restock, I mean they restocked everything. The pegs were overflowing with all lines, and the rafters above the pegs were stacked to the ceiling (slight exaggeration there). I looked around, then went shopping for other things. When I came back to pick up a fig that I changed my mind about, he was there with probably 40 Marvel Legends, some transformers and some hotwheels in his cart, and was currently loading up star wars figs in his cart, not just army builders. I had never seen anyone here in town do that before. He wasn't just loading up army builders, he was literally cleaning them out.

If it was your buddy, I take that comment back, and judging on what I saw there that day, I'd LOVE to see his collection. It must be massive.

Toy hunt for today came up with nothing, just remnents from wave 4, 7 and 8

GSO Stores hit:
K-Mart and Target on Wendover

W-S Stores hit:
Wal-Mart and Target on University

I stopped at Wal-Mart in Kernersville last night, they had a lot of the same. I swear, if anyone is looking for Vipers, this store has 10 or more of them!

Thanks for saving me some gas.

Now you need to waste that saved gas looking at all the other stores I didn't hit. You got some stops in GSO, HP and the other half of W-S to go to
