Sorry for the OT, but I've been wondering this- were any of you Lansing people in the Okemos TRU buying a Hisstank a couple of days ago? I think with a girl? If so I walked right passed you and it didn't occur to me to say anything about hisstank until just now...

West Lansing Sightings:
Target had one set of the DVD packs. Both them and Wal-Mart had peg warmers of w7 and w9. Now new CPs. No vehicles. Target does have the newer wave of 12" with SE and SS. |

The new Target vehicles will be sold at retail. They are making their way to the east coast right now! However, there may be a street date preventing Target from selling them immediately.

Here is a look at many of those figures on new non-25th Anniversary cardbacks. It looks like these will be re-released in the coming weeks." |

this isn't a sighting, and wasn't sure where to post it, but has anyone been to the X Trava Con in Livonia? I guess there is one this sunday the 17th, and was wondering if its worth checking out.

Thinking about going myself. Never been there, though. Wonder if there will be any Joe stuff there.

I went to the one last month after a long hiatus, & for what I was looking for it was worth it. They had a decent amount of Joe's, both MOC & loose. I picked up a Snow Serpent & BAT at inflated prices(12.00 ea), this was before I could find them in the store & get some from other Tankers. I also bought a loose Beachhead mint & complete for 4 bucks.
My opinion is this: You can go there & get something you are looking for within reason. You are going to pay a little more for it but you'll get it on the spot. You could also get the same products for pretty much retail prices from other members on this board if you just look around & ask. I do both, if I want something right away I'll look for it at the con. I'm hoping to find a W1 Flint this weekend as it will complete my collection. So as long as you go there, expecting to pay 3 bucks to get in & a few bucks extra per figure, you will do ok. If you are expecting great deals, you have a 50/50 shot. Plus they have Star Wars, Transformers, comics, etc. It's not the big con they have in Novi, but this one is 3 bucks versus 20. I will be there & I'm dragging my girlfriend. X-TRAVA-CON COMIC BOOK, TOYS AND NON-SPORTS CARD SHOW August 17, 2008 KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS HALL 19801 Farmington Rd. (BETWEEN 7 & 8 MILE RD) in Livonia, MI.

The xtravacon is a fun show. It has a good mix of toys and comics, comic people probably think there is too many toys. Myself and a buddy usually set up there. I sell mostly Transformers and some Joes. I try to give good deals, but when I sell too low, the dealers/scalpers snatch them and sell them at their table. For example, last show, before shows opened, some of the dealers cherry-picked all of my friends loose Joes he was selling (where Noise' got his Beachhead) and immediately out the figs out at their table for double the price.
With all that being said, if you're in the area, check it out and say hello. |

wow, thanks guys yeah I'm for sure going this year, and I'll be dragging my lady friend as well. For 3 bucks thats not bad at all. Hopefully I can score some missing comics I need, and I'm pretty much set for joes, except gold head destro, rowdy piper, and the two new cobra commmanders, but if they have them I'll be snatching them up.
