Going into downtown Boston tomorrow. Does anyone know of good places to get vintage stuff and possibly trade. I got a stun, thunderclap, street fighter vamp, bf2000 tank, and a mosc ROC red trouble bubble, plus a few vintage figures to trade.

Between the booger-green shirt, flashy red pants and the carrot-orange boots, this guy is becoming one of my favorites. Sgt Major figure is ok, nothing spectacular though. I do like the character though and love that he was the first IG. I also got one of my new Annihilators, and I'm really pleased with that they've done here- the simple mix of stratoviper body and Lamprey head was a good idea, although the transparent face mask isn't great, and I think they would have benefited by using the ROC aqua viper officer's helmet instead (that's what I used for my custom way back in '09). Looking forward to getting a con set sometime in the near future...

You got that suff fast for not going to New Orleans.....my 2 pack is one of the reorders, likley won't get my sfuff for another month, hopefully the club ships out the Club sets soon.

Thanks buddy! I'm glad they liked it enough to feature it on their front page... if you scroll down a bit, they also have my custom Thundercracker featured from a while back. Wasn't sue who else here visits/uses cobrastickers so I didn't say anything.

Hmm, not much in the Boston area for vintage buying/trading. If you have a car though, you may want to make the trek to The Toy Vault at the Emerald Square mall in Attleboro, about 45-60 minutes south of Boston on the RI line. PLENTY of ARAH vintage figures, vehicles, and more to choose from. They also buy toys for cash or credit.

I sure did. Ordered them on Saturday & Sunday and they arrived on Thursday and Friday! Whoever I bought them from wasn't messing around and posted them on ebay during the show.

Hey guys,

Marshall's in Watertown across from Target had a Sentinel for $30, a Crimson HISS for $16.99 and 2 Black Dragons for $16.99. I was only in to grab a DC Universe classics Spectre, but thought I'd let you guys know that they were there around 6pm yesterday.

[Fesifisky]

Grrr...someone already got the Hiss tank, unless it's hidden. Just called and they couldn't find it. Guess I need to start hitting some Marshalls again. Thanks for the tip!

[Air-tight]

Glad the crimson HISS is popping up at discount retailers now, may grab a few extra if I get the chance. Fisk- I know you're looking for HISS parts/treads... if you find any and don't want the Horseman, I'll trade/buy them off you- but if you do then that's cool too!

Dedham TRU got in the new 5/6" animated-looking Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I was checking them out yesterday, pretty interesting designs. Better than the 2004-era stuff IMO. I got a great warm feeling seeing them there on the pegs, and immediately flashed back to the late 1980s, my older brother and I in Child World on a summer day... the vivid shade of lime green plastic of Leonardo's and Raphael's skin is so clear in my mind.

Really would love to see a complete redo of them though in a super-posable format. So far, we've got the 25th anniversary reissues (I love the original 80s Playmates figures and always will), the 2004-era animated style figures, and the NECA comic-style figures, but none of them really hit home with me.

[JohnSage]

Honestly, if you called and you are not that far it may be worth the trip. The toys there are such a mess that they prob didn't even look. Like they would really know what to look for?

Yeah I go to that place and the other one in Warwick RI when Im home visiting. I traded my ninja turtles to them for a butt ton of Joe stuff. Thanks for the help airtight!!! I got a few vintage things ill see if they want them. Thunderclap, bf2000 tank, and the street fighter vamp plus a few figs.
